Hiya, Talion...
I had a dynamite response to your comment about invisibility -- then deleted it. It sounded too damn defensive. What I shoulda said was that you make a very good, very sharp and uncomfortable point. I have become very much aware that for much of my growing up life I did not know I'd been gifted with privilege just because of the color of my skin. I made assumptions that in America everyone has a chance. Even Dr. King's passion did not correct my false impression. What did wake me up was friends like you. Their stories, caring people who shared what it IS with me. I will not tell you you should keep speaking out on Blogit and elsewhere. But I thank you for making your point on my blog. :)pat

"Eat food, not too much, mostly plants..."
Must agree, the key is eating and living well, not to lose weight.
I enjoy your writing, went back and read a couple of pages. Must agree also regarding stupidity and politics.

The get rich quick schemes don't work as well for
the viewer/buyer, as they do for the seller.
Salesman came by, told this guy he had a machine that would do half of his work. Guy said I'll take two. (from a company newsletter a thousand years ago)

Yep - Kabu's way is definitely better! They've been selling miracles forever, and people keep buying. I'll be staying poor too if I have to make my money that way.

Me either friend ..Wiley and I have been on a diet since January and
he has lost 40 lbs and I have lost ........well I am a girl so I don't want to tell but I am back into my clothes again. But we did it with exercise...not easy as one gets older and we eat very carefully. Sometimes wego out and enjoy a meal but really rubbish has all gone from our diet...lots of fresh fruit and salad and vegies,a little lean meat and lots of fibre. Good luck with your diet and yes, ignore the circling hypnotic sharks.
