July 2, 2016

What eats at you makes you. It drives you. ___ Science got it wrong. You are not what you eat. As I age I am realising that time is not always friendly. I hope that I have a lot of years ahead of me but I don’t want to reach retirement and feel like I wasted … More Binge Eating: You Are What Eats at You

Do you like running with mosquitoes?

June 4, 2015

Which Jesus do you listen to?

September 10, 2014

You are what eats at you

May 19, 2014

Science is a nice, fun way to pass the time (if you like reading textbooks and listening to monotone people lecture). Sometimes science gets it wrong. This is one of those times.
