I always win: oat bran quandary

http://ialwayswin.blogspot.com/2012/02/oat-bran-quandary.html

Actually, I very rarely win. Wednesday, February 29, 2012. I'm no worse for my choice of oat bran. From page 54 of The Dukan Diet. If the bran is not thoroughly sifted, it is not sufficiently pure and contains too much flour. [.] .it is after it has been sifted for a sixth time, B6, that oat bran has negligible fast carbohydrate content.". Fast carbohydrates: a scary concept for someone trying to kick his carb addiction. So, I wrote the manufacturer of the oat bran. Now I'm feelin' so fly, like a B6.

I need to buy some new pants. Above all else: I feel fantastic. Body statistics as of today. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Toronto, Ontario, Canada. Just like my facial hair means I'm "hiding something," my tendency to be facetious and sardonic obviously means I'm hesitant to reveal the "real me." Yeah. Right.

Wednesday, July 29, 2015. Creativity is Something Other People Do. There's a tendency to think of art as something others. Do Art is mysterious; it comes from a magical place. It's not like going to a day job and pumping out widgets or code or happy customers—all the things you and your ordinary friends produce. We've even invented the concept of a muse: an other—. 8212;than post about it on Facebook. PS Buy my book. Labels: creative contributions to society. Sunday, July 19, 2015. The problem is, when I...

http://www.phronk.com/2014/12/new-cover-for-stars-and-other-monsters.html

Monday, December 29, 2014. New Cover For Stars and Other Monsters. After a few decades of dinking around, I'm starting to take this writing thing more seriously. In 2014, I finally published a few books, and in 2015 I plan to publish even more. Part of taking it seriously is realizing my limitations and hiring professionals to help overcome them. For Stars and Other Monsters (my first novel - BUY IT. Work before, and his style totally fit the bill. So here's the new cover:. To get notifications about new...

Monday, March 31, 2014. Book Review: The Five, by Robert McCammon. I haven't been keeping up with my book reviews. Oops. Well, here's one I've been reading for months and only just finished: Robert McCammon's The Five. Only minor spoilers here. The ending. It just hits all the right emotional notes. The length. If The Five were an album, it would be half filler songs. The self-indulgent ballads that had to be there to get the album up to twelve songs despite only having six good ones. Except ...When it e...

Its the flock, the grove that matters. September 30, 2011. Hello, again, hello…. Hello again. Still here.
