I was so sure Campfield had reached the peak of Mount Ignorance with his “Don’t Say Gay” vitriol and his dangerous and false claims against the gay community. The people at Knoxviews.com shared his latest, baseless and classless blog post in which he now suggests that abortions cause breast cancer. He’s certain of this because he read … Continue reading »
A friend shared the following open letter on Facebook today and, considering how Campfield’s idiocy annoyed and terrified me yesterday (yes, terrified… ignorance is terrifying) I felt compelled to share his letter which you can read on Mr. Wiseman’s (aptly named) Facebook page here. Thank you Michael Wiseman! I was taken aback earlier today after … Continue reading »
Note: This is my personal review/response to the FitBit and I am in no way connected to the company. I’ve been trying to measure my health (at least my body’s shape, weight, etc) for some time and found it so cumbersome to calculate what I’ve accomplished. I had tried manual systems on various websites and … Continue reading »
I had to get myself to Times Square this morning since that was where they chose to call it in. So once again I faced the daunting task of dealing with the lackadaisical inanity of the Duane Reade employees. Let’s begin by pointing out that it is exactly .2 miles from my apartment to the subway … Continue reading »
Well, the day to find out what was wrong has come and gone, with positive results, and some serious “ow” factor included. On Halloween, at 6am, I checked in to Roosevelt Hospital here in NYC and prepared for my knee arthroscopy. Fun right? At 7:30am I was administered anesthesia and by 7:31am I was completely … Continue reading »
I’ve been traveling for work the last two weekends and, in doing so, I’ve been stuck with dining out and the choices have not been particularly healthy. On the other hand I am starting a 10-day juice fast (thanks to inspiration from the film, Fat, Sick and Nearly Dead) on Monday so hopefully I can … Continue reading »
Today was my first full physical therapy session. For those that don’t know, I somehow destroyed my knee and have been hobbling around for nearly two months. My doctor thought I might have a meniscus tear but after an MRI he ruled that out. So, he prescribed physical therapy for two months hoping that it … Continue reading »
If it was just a cold I could deal with that. I would take some medicine and in a day or two I’d feel hunky-dory. But when Mother Nature bitch slaps you with an insanely high tree pollen count you might as well through in the towel, turn off the hepa filter and pour the … Continue reading »
For two weeks now I’ve had this sinus condition that the doctor swears is just allergies. Lovely… allergies. So, on her suggestions, I’ve been taking Claritin D, Benedryl and a small amount of Amoxicillin. However, now I am suffering a RAGING sore throat. Take a journey with me, imagining a rough stone, maybe spiky, slowly squeezing … Continue reading »
Today is Free Cone Day at Ben & Jerry’s… but alas, the nearest Ben & Jerry’s to my office is in Macy’s and it is not participating. Rude. And here I was ready to welcome in Spring (which was here in the city for one day this weekend and then it went on sabbatical) with an … Continue reading »
