Don't Buy Don't Eat

If you don't buy it, you can't eat it!

• Lunch at McDonald's, Wendy's, or which ever Burger Monarch is in your region...
• Note: White Castles are okay
• 128 ounce Mega Gulps (Really? I'll reference the amount sugar that Coke contains later)
• 2 dozen donuts for the office, that you damn well know no one is going to eat because they are all on the naturally slim diet
• Anything made by Little Debbie - She's brutal

We all go to the grocery store and most make it better by shopping when we are hungry

    IF YOU DON'T GO TO THE GROCERY STORE - START

        Because...

            Someone else is picking what you eat otherwise

So, now that you are going:

• If you fill your cart up with nothing of nutritional value, you'll get fat

• And you'll stay fat
• Or get fatter
• And become just another diabetes statistic of America

• Picking instant gratification foods that require no processing, because they have already been Ultra-processed, great choice. NO

• Ask yourself how long that microwave dinner can really stay frozen
• Does frozen equal unable to sustain microbial life?

• Slightly processed foods are mediocrely better

• They are just soaked in salt
• Or preservatives you can't even pronounce that regulate microbial life

If you walk past everything you absolutely know you shouldn't eat, you'll survive.

Just so you know, I did the Naturally Slim diet, it works great! For a while, until the Holidays show up, with cakes, pies, leftovers, ice cream, drinking, and this repetitively happens for what seems like November until the end of Spring Break.

No, I don't drink big gulps

Yes, I eat Little Debbie's (Had an Oatmeal Cream Pie while writing this)

Why? Because someone bought them, put them in my house, and now I have to eat them.

Sarcasm Seriously

When was the last time anyone took anything we said seriously? Now think about it yourself. 90% of your thoughts don't make it to verbalization...And there is the 9% that are categorized as Tourette syndrome now. Or the overly sarcastic. Did someone listen to the 1%?

How often are you standing:

    in the same place

    at the same time

    doing the exact same thing as yesterday?

It could be less than every 24 hours.

    Did you really need a 4th visit to "SunBulls?

    Would we be better off with a drive thru Sugar Shack?

        Nobody actually likes coffee anyway.  

With the China virus helping the world remember that:

    staying home is okay

    trying to be an extrovert just to feel better about yourself, the introvert's always win.

Standing in line at FlorMart waiting to pay for a product:

    We could have had delivered from an online retailer tomorrow (Or today?)

    Without paying sales tax (which seems to just be 'lower taxes now)

    No vehicle wear and tear

    Saving the Earth from Joe Biden's methane and carbon dioxide issues

        You did buy a Tesla already, right?

    Not showering,(should have been #1)

    Ladies? No make-up

    Actually wearing something besides sweat pants...

Seriously Why?

And, it would have saved time which equals money.

See where this is going? Questioning why you're doing something and producing a completely sarcastic answer, which ultimately makes sense.

Mom and pop shops need to starting thinking Covid-shops. Brick and mortar still exists, but you have to build the Metaverse shop first, then you can build a real location people will want to visit...Maybe.

** - FlorMart is a direct representation of WalMart

Fingers and Toes

Could you walk barefoot with your fingers? The concept of  'feet gloves' would seem different and much more look different. Dreaming of Vibram Five Fingers has provided some different ideas from the norm my foot has become accustomed to for 36 years.

If feet could provide subjective feedback...Cramped, tight, loose, heel slip, 'shoe lace untied AGAIN'

My wide inherited feet have been thrust into Buster Browns and beyond and finally the most hideous but insanely comfortable 'glove for feet' has made their presence known. If only they were considered 'Business Casual'. These wonderfully comfortable hemp FiveFingers have come the closest.

Would you believe I daydreamed of inventing these shoes to bring comfort to my soles? The next morning, my loving wife decided her Gall Bladder was going to need Emergency Removal, which sat me in a doctor's office reading 'Good stuff for you' magazines. And there, somewhere close to page 34, was the advertisement for Vibram Five Fingers!!!!! I visited their website that day, located the local reseller of Boulder Running Company, and made my first purchase the next day.

I have now convinced my son William, wife Amanda, cousin Bri, her boyfriend Trevor, and my good friend Mark that these are the craziest, but most comfortable shoes in the world.

DISCLAIMER - IF YOU DO PLAN ON RUNNING IN THEM...I WOULD RECOMMEND SLOWLY INTRODUCING THEM. YOU WILL USE LEG MUSCLES IN A TOTALLY NEW DIMENSION. (I could barely walk up stairs for 4 days...)
