Makes Fat Cells Self-Destruct!
That was a headline I read on a magazine at the grocery store. It was advertising some antioxident supplement. In case you are wondering, this sort of thing does not work. And even if it did... would you want your fat cells self-destructing? What then? It sounds like the urban legend about what happens if you eat a lot of pop rocks and drink a Coke.
In other news, I've discovered that people like it when blog content changes a lot. Almost no matter what it changes to. Think about it: you check in on your favorite blogs. New content: you experience a little rush of excitement! No new content: there's a let down, a moment of sadness as you realize that you're stuck reading the comments. If you check in on a blog enough and there's no change, you stop checking as often. I find I actively get annoyed when there's no change in my favorite blogs, especially the ones that are more like professional bloggers, not just friends of mine (whom I tend to have more sympathy for when life prevents posting.) I also really like it when people post links to other people's blog entries, or to various medical studies, or whatever. Mary has done that a lot lately. It gives me more things to read without having to look for them.
In conclusion, I've decided to post more often, even if it's just stupid stuff. At least you can't be sad that I'm not posting. It also cuts down on the number of friends and family inquiring as to whether or not I might be dead.

Thanks for the type on changing content. I always thought it the other way and I jump all over the place between travel, yoga, nutrition or whatever comes to mind. So now I guess thats not so bad.
My most recent post has a question for CRONies. Maybe you could give your well experienced input.
