Retro Justice League from a comic that cost 12¢. New travel article! I went cycling on my cheat day. An Easy Vancouver Bike Ride Mutant Diet Phase 3 Day 106 Monday. Blah. Yesterday was supposed to be a non-cheat day and it was, mostly, with the exception of sushi for dinner. There was a fair bit of temptation but I dodged it. This is notable in that normally I would have said, “bugger it; I’ll…
Now it’s time to obsess over the Justice League for a while. New travel article! Volleyball on Kits Beach! Mutant Diet Phase 3 Day 105 It’s true. I’m fussier when cheat days come. In the past, it was any carb or sugar any time. My cheat day started Friday night at the movie theatre where my son and I saw Spider-man Homecoming. Due to transit issues, I was late coming home and taking us to…
Tonight’s the night. Spider-man Homecoming. I’ve started the push on my Computational Fluency site with this new post about persistence. Mutant Diet Phase 3 Day 103 I took a break from cycling today because of some timing issues as well as the fact I am beat. I’m finding my energy levels are all over the map and my mental state is rough. Up too late and up too early is a problem. Strangely, I can’t…
This from Spider Island limited series. A recent post card campaign has landed in Central Newfoundland. Mutant Diet Phase 3 Day 102 When you do this sort of diet/fitness program there’s a risk of becoming a zealot. To mitigate this risk, I am taking topics I find odd and simply presenting an argument. Let’s take the concept of a calorie. In the diet context calorie has (at least for me) taken on a pejorative term.…
I bought my tickets for Spider-man Homecoming on Friday. Field BC has good fossils. Mutant Diet Phase 3 Day 101 I was reading about sugar (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_sugar) and I had thought it was a New World plant that went to Europe, but it seems that New Guinea may have been sugar’s hometown going into Asia first and then Captain Columbus The reason I was looking this was the fact that sugar is not part of human…
The new Spider-man is in the theatres and now I have to find time to see it. Please take a look at my analysis of BC Ferries. Mutant Diet Phase 3 Day 100 It’s Day 100 of a phase that was supposed to be 82 days. I figure I’ll run this until the August long weekend. I’m back on ultra-low carb and I seem to adapt faster now that I’m on my 4th six-day stint.…
This panel from the Spiderverse series has two Spider-men referencing Andrew Garfield and Tobey MacGuire. I saw Garfield’s version last night on Netflix. Oak Bay near Victoria participated in my cheat days. Mutant Diet Phase 3 Day 99 OK, so the cheat day was really two cheat days. I am feeling though today like I’m back in the meat-and-salad so let’s see what things will bring. Travel is deadly for strict diets. I estimated the…
I remember this comic book cover as being a first back issue I bought at the Silver Snail in Toronto when it was on Queen West. Mutant Diet Phase 3 Day 96 There’s not enough coffee for this headache. Oh yeah going to be earlier and not having a loud, hot apartment would help too. I notice with this process of 6 days strict and 1 cheat day is that you become very picky about…
Lots of Spider people here. Count them faster with Computational Fluency. Mutant Diet Phase 3 Day 95 “This is nuts.” I just said that, out loud, at my desk at work. It was in the context of how my head feels right now, despite some Tylenol, coffee and peanuts. (Speaking of nuts.) One of the unexpected side-effects that I’m attributing to this ultra-low carb process is talking to myself out loud when I would normally…
Spider-man and Luke Cage when he was trying to bring Spider-man to justice for Gwen Stacy’s death. Looks like the weather in Ottawa cleared up. Mutant Diet Phase 3 Day 94 I feel like a single refried bean crushed under an unyielding boot. Up too late and up too early. Not an optimum combination. There has been a consistent trend in the range of 2:30 PM in the afternoon where I feel illogically hungry and…
