Clay-Eating Cheeky Monkeys And The Elusive Stomach Flu / Viral Gastroenteritis Remedy

--Read More In: Disease | Nutrition | Thinking Out Loud | Vitamins/Supplements

Like many brilliant men before me, such as Eddie Izzard, I believe that most problems and their solutions come down to Monkeys. -And The French.

Okay, I've had this more than once this year and it's been excruciating.
It's also No Fun to hear of your friends and relatives writing writhing in agony when waiting seems to be the only strategy & Advil + Pepto doesn't work that well.

Track 4 from “Transistor”, by 311 -or a Star Wars Trilogy Sandwich.

Okay, this one’s been on the shelf and now the hot weather is officially here, I thought it was time to send it out.

Awhile back, I noticed a google ad here on the site and thought, “Soda with Stevia? -NO WAY!” -I immediately shot out an email & Stacey Fujimura + the good folks at Zevia sent us out a sixpack of their soda.

Vegetarians Responsible For Global Warming

--Read More In: Noise | Nutrition | Popular Diets

Thank GOD there is at least 1 man out there talking sense.

And that man is Carlos Mencia.

Love him or hate him, he's right. Vegetarians, especially ones addicted to leafy greens instead of Tofu-snorting, are themselves the planet-destroying enviro-pariahs they love to dehumanize and rag on.
Keep Destroying the Earth's Photosynthetic and Carbon-Fixation capacity by eating nothing but plants, you dirty post-hippie patchouli-soaked Gastro-snobs!!! -Vid after the jump. (NSFW)
