A Regimen for Remission
This log tracks my regimen of attitude, exercise, stress management, and SCD foods. Since I started this regimen in 1997, I've been able to keep my Crohn's in a drug-free remission.

Monkey-see,
monkey-don't
Even though I may have experimented beyond the SCD from time to time, one must remember that everyone is different. Follow the intro diet for 3-5 days, and stick with the SCD until you are completely symptom free for at least one year before experimenting.

"Back Then"
found here: http://sung3.ifsi.rm.cnr.it/~dargaud/Humor/QuotesComputer.html

A computer was something on TV
from a science fiction show.
A window was something you hated to clean
and RAM was the cousin of a goat...

Meg was the name of someone's girlfriend
and gig was a job for the nights.
Now they all mean different things
and that really mega bytes.

An application was for employment.
A program was a TV show.
A cursor used profanity.
A keyboard was a piano.

Memory was something that you lost with age.
A CD was a bank account.
Compress was something you did to the garbage
not something you did to a file.
Log on was adding wood to the fire.

Hard drive was a long trip on the road.
A mouse pad was where a mouse lived
and a backup happened to your commode.
Cut you did with a pocket knife.

Paste you did with glue.
A web was a spider's home
and a virus was the flu.

I guess I'll stick to my pad and paper
and the memory in my head.
I hear nobody's been killed in a computer crash
but when it happens they wish they were dead !

Aw, man!!!! I just got Eazel on my Linux box and they closed today! :-( Anyway, I expect the software itself will remain available for all to enjoy but there won't be much in the way of official development going on. Eazel's Nautilus file manager is a really nice looking (think OS X) interface to access all of your Linux *and* your Windows files. Breakfast: SCD yogurt, an apple, a banana, some pecans. Dinner yesterday: leftover grilled chicken, tossed salad, celery with peanut butter, organic baby carrots.. whatever I could find.

Happy San Isidro!!!

Among other things, San Isidro is the patron saint of Madrid. I believe the Vatican has selected San Isidro as the patron saint of the Internet. Happy surfing!

[Note copied from Catholic.org: "The proposed Patron Saint of the Internet is St. Isadore [of Seville; the one from Madrid was a farmer], because (as I recall) he wrote the first encyclopedia, a written form of a database. For research purposes, the Internet can be a giant database. It might be a little bit of a stretch, but I can see the analogy.
The bigger question might be, Why does the Internet need a patron saint? "]
