Well, it has been awhile, I wonder if anyone still visits my little ol' blog.

Here's an interesting tidbit of information for you all: for every calorie of food you eat, you use 10 calories of energy (electricity, etc...) and that's not including any transportation. We are fuckin gluttons for energy.

I'm determined to get my hands on a Gros Michel banana! I'm a banana conessieur dammit! They can't ALL be extinct, there must be a few somewhere. I'll pay a pretty penny for one.

After watching a documentary on oil and suburbia, I realize how truly fucked we are. Honestly, absolutely everything depends on oil. EVEN alternative fuel sources like hydrogen (the best way to produce it is with methane, or electrolysis which requires energy as well), ethanol (all pesticides and fertilizers used are petroleum products as well as transportation of everything relies on oil), and anything else you can think of. We're officially boned because world oil production is reaching a peak as we speak. The Saudi's have claimed to have the same oil reserves for the past 10 years, the wells in the Gulf of Mexico have pressure dropping rapidly, China is growing at a tremendous rate, what else can I think of? Oh yeah, all it takes to screw everything up is one crazy guy armed with explosives to get into the refinery in Saudi Arabia. So what's the solution? Invest in the oil sands people, we live next to possibly the greatest oil reserve in the calmest political environment. That being said, we can't waste it, because like everything in life, once it's gone, it's gone for good.

Oh man, I just dumped probably a 6 tablespoons (unwittingly I swear!) of flax seed into my shake this evening. I guess I'm going on a "cleanse" tommorow.

I'm suprised at how many people don't understand basic problem solving, even at my work. Even more to the point, how misinterpreted the word "problem" is. Most people approach a "problem" as a bad thing, but I see it as a good thing. It's something to do for one, and I get a chance to get a mental workout. Also, something that is in need of resoution gets, well, resolved. There ain't nothin bad about it.

Advice to everyone: Constantly eat throughout the day, and eat healthy. You constantly will have energy, and just be brighter, happier and do everything better. Not only that, it can help you lose weight, keep your blood sugar levels constant, and is good if you're fidgety like me.

Goddamn, reading about fitness is such a pain sometimes. Just when I think I've found a really good answer, I read an article that completely shuts it down and makes perfect sense. Perhaps it's best not to completely buy into anyone one philosophy, but just take what you can from each. That being said, I'm probably nowhere near the level needed to really take advantage of this stuff. I'm allowed to overanalyze, aren't I?

And you know what the best advice I've heard, fitness wise, is? Lift a heavy bar off the ground over your head. Try it.

Current favourite lyric: Baby, you know we can't be stopped. Come here and kiss my neck. Some things were made to be wasted.

You know what really aggravates me? Being on a crowded train, trying to keep your balance, and some...asshole is has their headphones jacked up so high everyone in the car can hear the shitty ass metal they are listening to. Yeah, you really need to get that pumped before you go to your job selling Gap clothing. RAWR!

I'm determined to be successful, very successful. That isn't such a bad thing, is it?

I'm also really sick of these black hairs that keep popping up on my back and the ingrown hairs everywhere else. You're not welcome! Leave quietly! Bah!

Anywho, bed is calling my name. I have much more to say (it has been awhile), so I'll post more Sunday I imagine.
