I’ve tried to explain to some of the flag-wavers on my deadend rural road that Nationalism is the opposite of Patriotism. I even showed them underlined passages in Orwell’s short essay “On Nationalism.” But these ‘True Believers’ (Hoffer) are impervious to reason…I’ll stop and comment on my...

I’ve got a selection of these products in my cupboard…they were part of a gift bag to referees and volunteers at a Weightlifting Meet. I havent tried any Since this works for me. I agree on the hype…goes back more than a century…I once competed for York Barbell and the founder, Bob Hoffman...

Charge...I don't hydrate enough too says the Cardiologist...I did promise her to get up earlier this summer for my rides...why stay up late if you have to get up early? My friend...great athlete (OL team) as well PhD in Exercise Physiology says the Pedialyte is absorbed better than...
