Hi @Richiebogie,
Yeah, it's sad. Even though they probably assume it could happen anytime, I'm sure it's still shocking when it does. It helps to have an insurance policy that covers all risks, but I imagine they're quite expensive and hard to get for someone living in a high risk zone.
Aww...it's near Lorne?! I knew I liked it! I wouldn't mind driving slow in that area. :) I just looked at pics of Teddy's Lookout and it's sooo pretty. And being able to walk there, even better! That's why I like the idea of living in a beachside community. I could easily walk to the beach.
So Australia is like living over the rainbow too then? :) It makes sense why you burn easily there, especially those of you who are fair. I think you're right about it being related to the hole in the ozone layer. I can't comment on the shape of the earth being a factor until we all agree on its shape.
WOW! You really have travelled all over the world! That's alarming that the car just toppled off the road, but thankfully you didn't. I looked at pictures of Muir Woods. You've got to love those trees!
Yikes! Garlic can be pretty rough on tissues. What was it Ray said about garlic — that it's as rough on the intestines as it is on the bacteria? It could be killing off bacteria in the lymph system, sure, but probably not to the extent that it's an issue for most people.
I'm glad you found a food to keep you warm during the winter. Too bad it causes you to have the eye twitching with chocolate and coffee. Do you think it's the fat in the cheese that keeps you warm and if so, have you ever tried cocoa butter as a main fat source?
Interesting! Well, if there's any credibility to proper food combining, I suppose if it was common for them to combine their meat/proteins with starch or fruit, that could have been a factor? I think in proper food combining, proteins digest best with non-starchy veggies.
Oh, yeah!! I've seen that sphere treehouse before in a book at the bookstore. There was also one that looked like a bird's nest. The only thing is I wish the builder would have made the top half of the sphere glass — a perfect glass dome just like the planetarium. That near the beach where there aren't many trees to obstruct the view of the stars...ahhhh!
I have the perfect vehicle to go with it...
Whenever I see this photo, I can't help but laugh at the guy peering through the window. I imagine him whispering "Help me!" Do you think Wonka trapped him in there?
Oh, and the builder does sound like John Astin. Haha!
I can't believe how long this thread is now and very little of it has to do with fruitarians and aging. Haha! I've really enjoyed our conversations, Richie!
