I used to sigh for theatrical effect and softly mutter to myself. But recently I dropped all pretense and let fly the four letter words. It's difficult to live with a grumpy old man. I apologize to Wanda for my negativity. I pledge to look for the rainbow, make lemonade and always see the clouds silver lining, from now on.
It's difficult though. I try to avoid as much "news" as I can, but still. I see the economy is looking up. Oh no, if it keeps going this way we're due for a big crash in 2015. At least it'll be after the next Winter Olympics. I'm looking forward to that.
North Korea is still in the news every day. Now it's urging foreign companies and tourists to vacate South Korea. The north doesn't want to injure and kill innocent people in a nuclear war. With the festivities and celebrations planned for the 20th anniversary of late leader Kim Jong Il's appointment as chairman of the National Defense Commission and the April 15 birthday of late President Kim Il Sung, when will they have time for a war? It must be a bitch...30-years-old with a country to run...Hail, Hail Freedonia.
Look, the most exposure I have to Margret Thatcher was watching an hour of "The Iron Lady" with Meryl Streep. I understand her years as Prime Minister were difficult and she wasn't loved by all. But this is disgusting; Opponents celebrated in London, the English city of Bristol and the Scottish city of Glasgow, cheering her death and toasting to the death of "the witch" with champagne and cider.
"We've waited a long time for her death," said Carl Chamberlain, 45, unemployed, sporting a grey ponytail and sipping on a can of cider in Brixton, London, the scene of riots in 1981...An unemployed 45-year-old with a ponytail should be very proud of himself.
Every so often I just want to scream.
Several people asked about my new glasses and my new (or lack of) hair style. The door looks like it's leaning but I think it's me. I tried to hold out for a better picture but doubt that's going to happen. It's finally time to face the facts. I'm not in Kansas and I'm not getting younger. But, to tell you the truth, I think I look pretty good.
I've been working very hard trying to lose weight and have dropped quite a bit. After all my effort I now read I can lose while I sleep. Damn, sure wish I knew this three years ago.
Dr. Caroline Apovian, an obesity doctor and the author of the new book, "The Overnight Diet," explains. Users do six days of a high protein diet and one day of a liquid diet. That, combined with sleep, equals weight loss.
“You can lose up to two pounds overnight. And then for the six days, you can lose up to nine pounds in one week after the first week,” said Apovian, an associate professor of medicine and pediatrics at Boston University School of Medicine and the director of nutrition and weight management at Boston Medical Center.
“That first night, you go to sleep, you sleep your eight hours, you are down two pounds,” she said. “If you continue to get enough sleep every night, you won’t get those hunger pangs. The hunger pangs come from lack of sleep, which induces the hunger hormone to get secreted from your gut.”
Apovian, who is also the director of clinical research at the Obesity Research Center of Boston Medical Center, said exercise is not required for users of this plan.
While typically, 25 percent of people who go on any diet actually lose weight and keep it off, Apovian said that in her clinic, that number rises to 50 percent. Fish, chicken and cottage cheese, nuts, seeds and soy beans. Fill up on these and take a nap. Can't you feel the pounds sliding off?
And here I've been wasting all this time with diet and exercise.
There are about nineteen gazillion web sites out in the World Wide Web. Many of them specialize trying to catch a certain type. In looking for blog fodder I explore sites I wouldn't normally read. For instance, one dedicated to young singles. I didn't know there was so much detailed information about flirting.
It's not the best looking but the flirtatious person that gets attention. A woman sending out 34 signals an hour will get, on average, four romantic prospects in that time. Signals can be as simple as a head tilt, an arm scratch, or an eye bat. A woman who stands up and yells, "I'm horny who wants to take me home?" will get a lot more than four.
Eye contact should be at least three seconds. Guys, do not stare at a woman willing her to approach you. ESP never works and she may think you're a pervert. Always be sure to keep your tongue in your mouth and never drool. The last thing you need is another restraining order.
A smile is nice but one showing crow's feet is better. You want to think about this prior to Botox injections.
The article says the direction of the feet may give you a clue. Yes, if the persons toes are pointing away from you it's a great indication their body will soon follow.
A western New York man will get $1.6 million to settle a dispute stemming from flooding from a nearby development that left him inundated with frogs.
The award settles a seven-year legal fight involving the man, the town of Clarence and a developer.
Runoff diverted onto his 40-acre property turned it into wetlands filled with frogs. He says the abundant amphibians forced him inside because a childhood incident left him with a crippling frog phobia.
Ribbit...Ribbit...Ribbit...an appeal is likely as investigators obtained video of the man watching the last Muppet movie.
TTFN.
