diet

I was browsing through a best-selling book on veganism that doesn’t use the word vegan at all (Skinny Bitch, isbn:0762424931) and it got me thinking that maybe I should at least try to give up milk for a week. So I bought soymilk and put it on my cereal for a while.

I still find the stuff bland and tasteless. A poor substitute.

And it’s more expensive than milk. If the dairy industry had no subsidies, then I expect milk would cost more than soymilk. Then I would think about switching, just to save money.

Odd how government policy encourages bad diet choices.

galactic slaves

Was reading Weber & Flint’s Crown of Slaves and thought: Heinlein never wrote a sequel to Citizen of the Galaxy. Why not?

Where am I living?

What kind of third-world neighborhood doesn’t have sewers?

And yes, my house is now full of sh__.

Update: Things are good now. The septic tank has been un-clogged, and the sh__ was cleaned out of the shower.
