Wonderful Essay – a must read! March 26, 2004 11:18 am

Ok. Here is a fantastic essay which I will not even attempt to pull quotes from except for the initial paragraph. Take some time, read, ponder, absorb. What You Can’t Say

(This essay is about heresy: how to think forbidden thoughts, and what to do with them. The latter was till recently something only a small elite had to think about. Now we all have to, because the Web has made us all publishers.)

Drink Water for Health and Longevity March 26, 2004 10:41 am

I am frequently telling my wife that she and the kids need to “drink more water.” I know the kids get their fluids in other forms but I wish they would at least get a periodic glass of h2o. Here is another article emphasizing the importance of water.

Health-care providers say water nourishes the entire body. “Water is a life-sustaining beverage,” says Leslie Bonci…

“Water helps flush the system,”

Water may also play a role in preventing colorectal cancer.

“Take a third of your weight in pounds and that’s how many ounces you need to drink daily,” she says. A 150-pound woman, for example, will need 50 ounces, which translates to a little more than six cups of water.

Experts also say it doesn’t matter if all those cups are filled with water. Beverages such as juice and milk also count.

Signs of severe dehydration, …, include lethargy, headaches, dry lips, decreased urination, a burning sensation in the stomach, an abnormally fast heart rate, inability to concentrate and fatigue.

A New Day!

Let’s start the day off with a PayPal donation link:

This Morning

On the way into the office I stopped in downtown Franklin to answer the first question in the cipher which allowed me to get the coordinates of the 2nd clue. Out of time and slightly befuddled by the 2nd clue, I came into work. This is a great multicache!

I can’t wait to go home today although I’m a little apprehensive as I feel my wife is unhappy with me.

Last Night

Paid my rent helping my friends get started on hanging some window treatments. Watched some Easter Eggs on Pirates of the Carribean dvd and can’t wait to share one in particular with the wife. It’s uncanny!

Completed the cipher.

Blast. The head dog wants me to come in for a wrapup tomorrow. I suggested Monday and put several spins on it even resorting to the “kids last day of spring break – haven’t seen them at all” emotional spin but he wasn’t comfortable with Monday.

On the positive side, tomorrow is the last day for awhile. There is other work but they want to get their ducks in a row before continuing.

My mind has felt clearer these past 3 weeks or so than it has in the past 3 months! I credit that to the reduced cafiene intake.

Now I follow that with a contradiction: Have you ever worked so hard that you get a buzz? That’s where I am now (which spurred the thought above).

The distraction of the task switch to bug fixes has thrown me off kilter. Must get back onto milestone 7. Of course, skipping lunch probably isn’t helping. Candy bar to the rescue!
