HOW MUCH DID THEY DRINK? (Quite a lot, actually!) THE CONSUMPTION OF ALCOHOL IN TRADITIONAL EUROPE. Constantly, and in great quantities. "Temperence" meant no more than seven glasses of wine per meal. Abstinence was a perversion, same as in sex.

GOD HATES SHRIMP and snails and stuff, at least when we mere humans eat it. And Genesis 1:29 gives humans all seed-bearing plants and trees on the face of the earth. But that leaves out a lot of things that we mere humans insist on consuming, illegally. Don't eat non-seed-bearing and submarine plants. No fungus (mushrooms); no kelps or mosses or lichens (in sushi, ice cream, etc); no bacteria (brewing beer and cheeze and yogurt); no molds (penicillium, etc). Devour these and go to Hell. Vegetarians are damned, eh?

UPDATE: Instead of total abstinence, I'm just on near-zero caffiene and alcohol and stress. So I can still swear at stupid drivers, but only once a day, and quietly. Whatever holds off atrial fibrillation. Whew.
When I give food to the poor, they call me a saint. When I ask why the poor have no food, they call me a communist. —Dom Helda Camara
MORE LIFE CHANGES: As of XMas 2003, due to my heart going wonky, I'm on a diet of zero caffiene and zero alcohol. That might be upgraded slightly, but not much - maybe to a daily max of 1 glass wine, 1 or 2 cups coffee. Bummer. Such deprivation. But ERs are worse, as is death, so this lifestyle change isn't intolerable. And caloric intake will diminish. So I'll thin-down faster. I just won't think or fantasize faster. And all reports here of café and booze will be secondhand only. You have been warned.

When they ask for bread don't give them crackers as does the Church, and don't, like the State, tell them to eat cake. Explain that man cannot live by bread alone, and give them stones. —Nathanael West
BLOAT: Life is too good, or something. Ever since we became unemcumbered by employment I've been chafing at the bit to go a-roving. And not just because traveling (and writing travel journals) is fun, and new places bring new foods, etc. But also because when we're rolling, even though we eat and drink well, we lose weight. This likely has something to do with endless walking, eh? Whether we're camp(er)ing, RVing, bus/van touring, whatever, we generally drop about a pound a day. That adds up quickly.
But as I've mentioned in my journals, we're 'stuck' here in this mountain paradise awhile longer. Medical treatment and physical therapy, they have a strong hold on us. Very important, long-term — but short-term, I'm getting pudgy again. Ah well, I blame it all on addictive foods (see above).
