Wecome, please take some time to enjoy my site!
Why did I make this site?
I don't claim to be the most health conscious, the smartest person or anywhere close, but it does not take a genius to see that health and education are very important and having the tools at your finger tips is a very very useful thing. I learn from others advice and from my own experience and just wanted to share with anyone who just wants to learn more. I am now a father and want my son to be smart as do I'm sure most fathers do, and to surpass hid father by leaps and bounds, so maybe some of what I add is for him one day. He already seems smarter than I. ;-) Yesterday, April 12th, 2005, I got pink eye and knew nothing about it. So I did a search and found a awesome site called www.vh.org which stands for Virtual Hospital and told me how it can be spread, what to expect, how to contain it and so on. It was very helpful so it is a link on the left side. Seemed as good or better than Web MD but they are both very good, and much cheaper than buying any books of medicine that changes every 6 months. Whatis.com will give you info on almost any computer term. The CIA World Fact Book tells you about any country, about their politics, their races who live there, population, average life expectancy, weather and more. Very useful, especially for travel or school. Just explore and make sure to e-mail me if you find a very helpful site that is not here, or just a fun site. All is appreciated. Today, May 2nd I went to the Dr. to get my lap band adjusted, and they added about 2 cc's of saline and told me not to eat solid food for a day or 2. They also told me I have lost 40 pounds since the last time I was in, and my jeans I bought about 2 months ago are 4 sizes smaller than normal. I hope to make that about 4-6 sizes smaller soon. ;-) For those of you who do not know I got a lap band about 1.5 years ago and it is like a belt around your stomach to reduce food intake for people with slow metabolisms or obese people. If you want to know more ask me and I will have some good links soon (you can Google it too), but it is great and I can recommend a Dr. in central Texas, for anyone else I can give you info if requested. It cost my insurance about $20,000, so it is not cheap if you have to pay out of your own pocket.
Here are some amazing maps I have found of the US, and the world...have a look!
Words of Wisdom? Or just some more bumper stickers......
A day without sunshine is like, night. On the other hand, you have different fingers. I just got lost in thought. It was unfamiliar territory. 42.7 percent of all statistics are made up on the spot. 99 percent of lawyers give the rest a bad name. I feel like I'm diagonally parked in a parallel universe. Honk if you love peace and quiet. Remember, half the people you know are below average. He who laughs last thinks slowest. Depression is merely anger without enthusiasm. The early bird may get the worm, but the second mouse gets the cheese. I drive way too fast to worry about cholesterol. Support bacteria. They're the only culture some people have. Monday is an awful way to spend 1/7 of your week. A clear conscience is usually the sign of a bad memory. Change is inevitable, except from vending machines. Get a new car for your spouse. It'll be a great trade! Plan to be spontaneous tomorrow. Always try to be modest, and be proud of it! If you think nobody cares, try missing a couple of payments. How many of you believe in telekinesis? Raise my hand... OK, so what's the speed of dark? How do you tell when you're out of invisible ink? If everything seems to be going well, you have obviously overlooked something. When everything is coming your way, you're in the wrong lane. Hard work pays off in the future. Laziness pays off now. Everyone has a photographic memory. Some just don't have film. If Barbie is so popular, why do you have to buy her friends? Eagles may soar, but weasels don't get sucked into jet engines. What happens if you get scared half to death twice? I used to have an open mind but my brains kept falling out. I couldn't repair your brakes, so I made your horn louder. Why do psychics have to ask you for your name? Inside every older person is a younger person wondering what happened.
