If the 20th century taught us anything it's that "civilization" is a very thin veneer easily peeled back. I consider myself lucky to be living out my life in a quiet corner of history with hot and...

Rats with bushy tails. Living with rodents is a threat to your health and safety, not them per se but the things that come with their feces. Good luck with that.
I must be insane, I look forward to it. Saw 5 or 6 surfers out in the waves off Rye beach this afternoon. My intent is to be with them in a couple of years when I get better at it. Over 2 feet of...
We have jump off the roof snow drifts here from a storm last night, abut miles of conservation land, frozen marshes, small but sleddable hills yet all the neighborhood kids are inside. What the hell...
An Ivy degree and a blue collar job. Suits me, I could never have job that involved an office in any way.
Ethicist my ass. Provocateur looking for a headline is more like it. If shaming works maybe stoning a few obese people to death would work better.
Actually thought of you TG in the wake of the Algeria incident. Good to see you posting. And yes, it is so simple it's easy to over think.
Salt the steak to taste (I like to butter or drizzle olive oil as well), preheat oven to 350F (convert to C), get an oven safe frying pan really hot, add fat of choice, lay steak in for 1-2 minutes,...
I am surprised at the extent to which the vaccine regimen has grown since I was a child. I had to pull my own records not so long ago and I consider that I was fully protected with far fewer shots 50...
In 2 years of shopping cart voyeurism I've yet to see anyone I would suspect was primal/paleo. Maybe I'll run into you somewhere on the seacoast. I do miss being near a WholeFoods only because I...
I read Gibbon on the way to a BA in history. I don't expect any other human I meet to have the slightest idea who he is. The best part of the book is the title and even that's misleading. Rome...
I read The Hobbit and Lord of the Rings more times than I care to admit. Zero interest in the movies for the above reason. Hollywood sucks the joy out of everything it touches by default.
Keep working but stop spending. In a few years you'll have the FU money and you'll find that that in itself changes your whole perspective.
People really are doing it in Alaska but I do think...
When people ask me how I've gone about the changes that are so obvious they expect to hear about diet or willpower or denial and I always tell them it is knowledge. If something isn't working, I try...
The offer's been made repeatedly. MDA has to understand that this impacts the trust on the commercial side as well. Especially given the breach on that side in the not so distant past. Hell, even...
It's not so much the feminization of men as the infantalization of the entire culture. If everyone expects to be taken care of, who is to do the caring?
I'm most likely going to live to see a...
Just moved up here last spring. More info on the farm please, if you're on EatWild I missed it. I think a link in your signature line would be permissible. Also bought a surf board but am just...
The real problem is that it's just not that complicated and too many people are trying to monetise the idea on the web. I still kill some time here but have found I do better by just getting on with...
My cousin was involved w/ studies at a major dental teaching hospital that showed dry brushing to be more effective than toothpaste. Not sure if they were ever published. From my own experience...
I have a phantom facebook account for just this purpose. Easy enough to create as millions have already done.
Is it his fault or the fault of a population that feels it needs to be told what to eat by its government?
Steamed spinach, half an avocado, a banana, frozen wild blueberries, unsweetened cocoa, dollop of heavy cream, wine to fill the bullet glass. Comes out thick enough to need a spoon. I don't like wine...
Had braces in my late 30's, was also told about lifetime retainer use. Went maybe 4 months daily after they were removed slowly tapered off and now don't even know where the damn things are. 10...
Cook hooked one off a boat out of Cairns, one of the best pieces fish I've ever had. Go for it.
All kidding aside, this. I am just so sick of people's self induced suffering due to their bad choices regardless of the back story.
