Everything is not political.

-
I was cruising through some blogs and came across some folks who are not going to link to Amazon.com anymore because they donated 61% of their donations to Republicans; where does the other 39% go????. BUT, it's okay for Barnes & Noble to donate 98% of their donations to Democrats; and their remaining 2%???. I just get so sick and tired of how everything gets turned into a political issue. Abortion is the prime example in my opinion. Abortion is something between a woman, her partner, and her god. I think it's not the best choice but I will tell you what, if I want an abortion; even if it's illegal; I'm getting one. It's the same with stem cell research. I'm very sorry about Chris Reeves but why the hell should we spend tax dollars on basically an injury that was self-inflicted???? Yes, I know, I evil, cold, uncaring, whateva!!!! I think people should absolutely stand up for what they believe but if you want me to read; buy whatever, keep your politics to yourself. I will never under any conditions buy a Japanese car but I don't sit and rag on Japan all time (although I could believe me!!!).

Okay, so all the blogs are talking about setting a date to restart their healthy eating program. That definitely has some appeal especially since I'm PMSing and in no mood to pay attention to anything. On the other hand, I really want to reach 155 by New Years. Tomorrow we are doing lunch so that is kind of shot. I don't know.... We are really not doing anything special, we're not even going out to dinner Christmas eve like usual so it seems silly to write off my eating program just because it's Christmas. So that settles it; I'll stick to my program the best I can.

Now, my next problem is having to find a dentist cause my tooth is acting up..........

and today I found yet another one. The Great Aloha Run this morning was just awesome. I didn't break any records, it was not my best time by far, but I think this was one of my best races ever. After getting up at 4 a.m., driving to the finish line, catching a bus to the start, standing in line for the port-a-potties(more on this later), I still found myself with over 45 mins before the race started. So I found a place to sit and people watched for 1/2 an hour - that is always fun. Finally, at 6:45 we headed out to the start. One of the things the Great Aloha Run does is they have the Sounds of Freedom. These are military units from all over the island that run in formation singing cadence the whole way. They line up on the side of the road and they have a silent start 8 minutes before the race starts. It's always a special sight to see them go. I'm a flag waving fool and when I see our military I just get all gushy. I feel so proud to live in a country where young...

Colloidal Silver

-
colloidal silver is very fine particles that are suspended in liquid, usually water. This apparently has antimicrobial properties and has been used externally to treat wounds and burns to prevent infection. Working in the lab we get lots of nasty, nasty burns. You ain't been burned till you've been burned with hot sodium hydroxide - yow momma!!!! Anyway, we always kept a jar of colloidal silver around and used it on burns. It not only helped it heal it seemed to reduce the pain. I don't know how it just did. Now, some folks think you should drink this. They say it has antibiotic properties and is fairly harmless to drink. I don't know if that's true but it sure would be nice if it was. I hate taking antibiotics for a number of reasons. It would be nice to be able to drink something and have the same thing happen. colloidal silver has also been used to keep potable water drinkable for long periods. This sounds like some pretty amazing stuff. Being the scien...

My blog is great!!!

-
Look to the left there. My blog has been rated by blogged.com as Great!!! I scored 8.5 out of 10. Woo Hoo!!! I don't normally get excited over things like this, but I'm on a mission to create great blogs and this is just a little validation. So for some reason I was incredibly busy last night and stayed up way past my bedtime. As a result I didn't get up this morning. Well, that and the fact that is was freaking cold. We are in this spring weather cycle where it is warm and beautiful during the day, and cold, cold, cold at night. Makes for good sleeping but hard getting out of bed. Fe-Lady is raising funds for a really, really good cause. Go here and help her out why don'tcha. In my humble opinion there is not enough we can do to help out our American Heroes. So go, give, it'll feel good...... That's it for now. I need to get some work done.
