This weekend is the Miller Lite Ride for the Arts here in Milwaukee. It is also the Battle for CamRock; the WORS race
out Madison’s way. Helmets are required for either event. No helmets required
however for the spring opening of the Wauwatosa Farmer’s Market. It’s no
three day weekend but…
We had a simple Memorial Day; no shopping, an
opportunity to reflect. We had some gatherings with friends and at church on the
weekend but not on the day. It doesn’t get much better for a Memorial Day and
its associated weekend.
The holiday is usually a big movie weekend. Not this
year. Why go to a movie on a big weekend with the big prices? People, people,
people. Some people like a crowd. Tuesdays maintain the day of greatest economy
for cinema goers. It is the most typical of discount days for most all in the
industry and it can draw a crowd.
We didn’t see a movie at the theater, but about a
week ago we watched “Sharknado” on our Internet TV. Not in one sitting, but
still we watched it.
Off the top of your head you may think that,
““Sharknado” is a complete waste of time.” But after watching “Sharknado” I didn’t feel the movie was a waste of time at
all. You have to be able to attribute some value to time, or rather its good
use, for it to be wasted. After watching “Sharknado” nothing in life or the
universe seemed to have any value at all.
Do not let “Sharknado happen to you. I am serious.
Note, I did not provide a link. Seriously, don’t watch it.
We did see a new movie on our Roku that burst with
hidden values. That would be “Against
the Sun”. You think three men in a small raft in the middle of the ocean
would be a bore. Oh contraire. Of course you need to hold values yourself to
recognize the depth of these simple men’s moral fortitude and strength of
character. We had obviously recovered from our previous viewing
experience.
Do not let “Sharknado happen to you.
I should be spending more time in my basement. My next project must wait till
after the end of the month as I am behind in my writing goals. The fore
mentioned purchase is portrayed to the left.. You’ll have to wait to see what it
becomes. I will document and share the process in the not so distant
future.
I need more time on the bike too. My diet has
produced a now slow but consistent weight loss.
The creator of the Bulletproof
Diet has a real hang up with mold. It consumes far too much of his
attentions, from my perspective, when he’s describing his diet. On the other
hand it is a very serious issue. It can contribute significantly to weight gain
according to the new documentary that he is promoting; “Moldy”. The trailer makes the issue
appear horrific and ridiculous at the same time. Just my take.
After we put a new roof on our house my annual weight
gain of five pounds ceased. It soon became a three pound a year loss. Not sure
if mold had anything to do with it, but it is scary stuff.
Thinking Paleo
Diet however, I have to conclude that man has been dealing with mold for
thousands upon thousands of years, at least six, so our bodies should be able to
deal with it to some extent. To fear foods over their potential for containing
mold toxins is a bit over the top. Every diet I have heard of highlights
berries. They differ drastically in regards to other foods, legumes for one. The
Bulletproof Diet is adamant against mushrooms (no surprise their) while other
diets label mushrooms a super food.
Now the vegans are trying to go Paleo; they call it
the Pegan
Diet. Why not Pagan I ask. Appears more appropriate to me. It’s already taken.
Do not let “Sharknado” happen to you.
Please.
Not sure how the Metro Mountain Bikers’ trail work day
turned out last Tuesday. I was busy, my wife was out and it looked like more
rain would fall.
At least we haven’t had any sharknados
yet.
The $98 question: What were my three most favorite
WORS
races? Keeping the same question. Check out
the Charity Jackpot Page link in the sidebar to possibly triple the
amount.
