From one burrito-a-day to one bowl-a-day in my one meal-a-day diet
tl;dr: OBAD once meant, to me, one burrito-a-day but now it means one bowl-a-day. My 24:.25 daily intermittent fasting eating window from the early afternoon to first thing in the morning. My one bowl-a-day is a big bowl at 48oz-a-day. Here's what I prepare and eat.
Getting back on the sliding saddle for the Concept2 Fall Team Challenge

The Afghan war was a long Khan
tl;dr: Afghanistan was invaded by the United States—not invited. Afghanis were our hostages, not our allies. The occupation was tolerated not enjoyed. Any US love was actually Stockholm syndrome.
What earned media micro-influencer marketing is
Every one of the influencers we reach out to we brand with our client's brand recognition. Maybe your first touch, their very first introduction to the client. There are so many useful aspects to our type of influencer marketing, which is actually more of an influencer PR.

Reviewing Total Fitness After 40: The 7 Life-Changing Foundations You Need for Strength, Health and Motivation in your 40s, 50s, 60s, and Beyond by Nick Swettenham
Nick Swettenham reached out to me to check out his book, Total Fitness After 40, and after dicking around with PDFs, MOBI, and ePUB, I grabbed it as a KindleUnlimited. So, I "bought" it myself.

The Asics Novablast is an amazing walking shoe

I made such obvious mistakes during the Trump era
Now that I come to think of it, it was stupid for me to be such a contrarian during Trump's administration.
Trying BP-Rx by Re-3 to supplement my high BMI, hypertension, and cholesterol treatments
I grew up in Hawaii and so I am much more open to Chinese medicine. My dad's office was in Chinatown in downtown Honolulu on O`ahu so I spent a lot of time in the Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) stores along Hotel Street. I even go to TCM treatments at Heavenly Bodies Clinic, including acupuncture and tinctures. I am giving BP-Rx a try since it uses traditional Chinese ingredients that naturally and homeopathically treat all that ails me, including cardiovascular disease, kidney disease, hypertension, and high blood pressure.
