Eating Plastic, Avoiding "Free" & Other Food Facts

I recently recorded a terrific interview with Patricia Setzer, a health & fitness sleuth who helps people learn to read food labels, as well as understand what all those hard-to-pronounce ingredients in processed food really are.

It's just about 30-minutes long and filled with some real mind-bending facts that everyone oughta know... at least, that is, if they eat food.

Absolutely free... so it's good for your wallet, too!

The Day I Die...

Alright, normally I'm a pretty optimistic guy and I use my website, blog, and newsletter to share optimistic ideas. Sometimes, in thinking about how good things can be, one has to think about the inevitable, like death and dying.

Websurfing at the firehouse where I volunteer, I stumbled across an interesting website another volunteer had visited earlier. DEATHCLOCK is a rather pessimistic site where you can go, enter your age, your birthday, your Body Mass Index, and whether or not you're a smoker, then be shown a projected "death date" and count-down clock showing how many seconds you have left to live.

Of course, it's just a guess based on a few factors. And it obviously can't include things like chance, freak accidents, etc., but it gets you thinking.

Life is fragile, every second a gift.

You can take advantage of every moment you're given to make your life as bold and brilliant as you want it to be... or you can waste it.
