METH: THE MESSAGE, THE MESSENGER, AND FITNESS

July 20, 2014 by

Breaking Bad Goes Good? What’s the first thing to consider when you meet someone in tremendous shape? Good diet and workout? Steroids? Human growth hormones? Meth? That last one is a sticker.

BOOMERITIS, OR WHY DOES IT HURT WHEN I DO THIS?

July 17, 2014 by

The Longer You Let Yourself Go, The Longer The Trail Back. One doctor joke goes like this: “It hurts when I raise my arm.” Doc says, “Don’t raise your arm.” It’s as funny the first time as it is the last, if you don’t have arm pain. Most of us have pain from one thing […]

THE PEACOCK KILLERS OF PALOS VERDES

July 16, 2014 by

Whether up-sizing, down-sizing, or just changing your view, moving to a new place means making adjustments. If the dream is living off-the-grid in a self-sustaining manner, do you turn your version of rural heaven into a suburban subdivision? Bringing old habits to a new environment isn’t a recipe for change. Do that and you might […]

HAES AND THE NATUROPATHIC DOCTOR

July 14, 2014 by

What is HAES? So glad you asked. Health at Every Size might sound like a New Age phenomena, but it’s not. It started in the baby boomer days of the 1960’s. If you missed it between Save The Trees and Save The Earth, others didn’t. People have always come in all sizes, however shaming is […]

STEPHEN GASKIN: THE HIPPIE KING EXITS FARM

July 3, 2014 by

Believe in something or someone enough and you’ll follow them to the ends of the earth. Those following Stephen Gaskin to the ends of the earth found it in Tennessee. Gaskin’s death at age 79 explains much about the counter-culture of the Sixties in general and hippies in particular. A mobile society means moving away […]

STOP SMOKING, BUT HOW?

July 2, 2014 by

FACEBOOK: MARK ZUCKERBERG OR JOSEPH GOEBBELS

June 30, 2014 by

 Facebook Is Not The New Fuhrer     After the NY Times and Wall Street Journal reported Facebook manipulated users’ emotions, those emotions hit the fan.   Like a good salesman, Facebook asks a few questions then sits back and listens.   What do we do? We let it all out. Where do we live? […]

JERSEY BOYS HIT THE HIGHS WITH INSPECTOR CALLAHAN

June 28, 2014 by

I didn’t see the play. The movie is my only reference, that and a lifetime of Frankie. Baby boomers take to Frankie Valli like hippies to the Dead, but it’s a closeted subject. It’s still to hard to decide if Frankie is cool, or not. If the high voice bothers you, don’t tell Neil Young […]

Is There A Difference? What drives people to write yelp reviews? Great service and food brings out the positive. Anything less? Forget about it.
