Less is More

UnLess.  Well unless you do not know what to do with more.  More of what?  Well for starters another yo yo woke up and announced in a monthly mag that Americans are now waking up to this amazing context.  Spend less you will save more.  More to the point his thesis more or less points to how the natives are eating less meat.  Leaving more in their bank and not to mention more animals grazing instead of being slaughtered.

His argument is about how its healthier alternative which in turn is less trips to the doctor and more time to bask in the sunshine of which there is an abundance due to global warming.  May I be the voice of reason and say that the warming is a trend largely aided by all the cow farts that are now - you guessed it - not being eaten (the fart generators not the farts you dolt).

There was once the Bra Less trend that women in particular decided would work to advertise their plight or some such and to this day there is marketing and packaging that benefits from it.  Walk into any mall and it has massive signage followed by a Secret store that is not so secret what with all the massive signage and almost nude mannequins showing how less bra is more cleavage..

E-wallets promise to further reduce our need for leather as in those wallets that carried all the cash, leaving more cows more time to graze and ruminate,  chew the cud and also giving them extra time to regurgitate as they are wont to do.

You now have tank less water heaters so you get more hot water esp getting into hot water is your idea of fun.

You get the drift.  The less I say about this now the more it will make you think!

Of chocolates

I like chocolates. Godiva Dark with Almonds - not sure of the naked woman on the horse to be the icon of some choice cocoa based products but tastes good. Started in Belgium but now owned by some Turks. Cadburys - Fruit and Nut Milk Bars - awesome combination of dried fruit pieces along with a medley of nuts makes your toungue dance - started by a Brit now owen by Kraft USA. Lindt Hazelnut spheres - made by a Swiss confectioner are divine balls that melt in your mouth with a lingering nutty taste Ghirardelli Milk Crisp Squares - crunchy and light these milk squares are easy on the palate but pack some serious calories - all good I say! Originally founded by an Italian who moved around till he landed in SF Bay today also owned by the Swiss Lindt empire.

Columbia SC

 The Palmetto state.  One of the confederate kinds. History dating couple centuries back.  We visited the capital yet again this time to take in the SC State Museum. Occupying the former digs (literally remodeled) of an erstwhile cotton mill this structure is an amazing piece of reimagination.  Four floors of excitement for kids and young at heart alike. Located on the shores of the Congaree River formed when the Broad meets up with the Saluda River, this edifice is approx. 60 years old.  The front of the building has a more modern planetarium that was added about a decade ago.  The museum itself has different areas of interest segregated on each of its four floors. The first floor has gift shop and a diorama of some of the local geography including the swamps and the state beaches with audio guides to help understand what fauna thrives locally. The second floor is all about natural history and showcases animal kingdom that may have survived on this latitud...

But What If We're Wrong?

I attempted to read this book by author Chuck Klosterman backward to forward but it started hurting my brain so I decided to stop and do it like any other publication in the English language.  Start from page 1 and move to the right. Witty, caustic and thought provoking this is a book you want to read if you believe that the status quo might, just might be wrong. At times bordering on being contrarian about most things around us it tries to zero in on the notion of what makes anything believable and certain in our minds.  The fact that there is a fact itself is ironic.  Something analogous to the idea that you can never predict the future because there is no future. Many books and movies have tried to play on this concept - best that I recollect (I think I am) was 'The Truman Show'.  This book by Klosterman attempts to provoke the reader to at least contemplate that what they think they know may be wrong. He uses examples like concept of gravity, and how it ...
