At permanent party in a high energy combat arms unit in Wildflecken Germany I leveled out at 180 and stayed there til about 1995 when I was 40. My eating didn't change at that point but some how I started gaining weight. Yes, I was getting older, but that alone couldn't account for the drastic shift. I suspect the quality of food was changing. Over the next 24 years it has continued to change. Monsanto, GMO, wood chips, etc., it isn't food any more and it's not completely digestible so it stores. Because the quality of the food has plummeted the nutritional value has dropped and the amount of food that used to fill you up no longer does, so you have to eat more. More frankenfood means more storage. <br /><br />You have to break that cycle of deception and health problems. You have to seek and find better quality of foods. Better quality food costs more but you eat less. The problem comes in finding the good food in the first place. Better quality food is easier to find the farther you get away from urbania. But you still have to have proven connections and that's not easy to come by unless you live close to the sources.<br /><br />If 3000 calories per day is the standard, and that is based upon standard grocery store food you are eating more and getting less. If you eat better quality food you need far less than 3000 calories per day. I know this to be true first hand. Not only is Ruralville better for your mind it is also better for your body. ghostsnipernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2686829448547770092.post-80182849586992839812019-05-19T17:58:16.671-07:002019-05-19T17:58:16.671-07:00As I understand it, Burns series on Vietnam seems ...As I understand it, Burns series on Vietnam seems to have towed the "benign empire" line.

Just HAVING an alternate view is good enough. I don't WANT to be skeptical or cynical. I would love to have historians actually report, you know, history. It takes a lot of extra effort to fight the propaganda. But it serves a purpose. If you can't be skeptical of Must Thinks such as Gore Warming, the Holocaust or 9/11, we cannot question "200 years of fracking" or similar matters that directly effect us right now.

It's going, going.. center field wall..and it's GONE!<br />Yes, ladies & gents, boys & girls you too have been treated to another Bison League homer.<br /><br />Interesting bit about calorie calcs I picked while researching colonial history of Barbados. Aristos, who had supported Charles II while in exile, (his dad, King Charlie I, had head lopped of in 1649 leading to CW) sought depopulation of formerly almost 100% white yeomanry in Barbados. They wanted to turn island into a slave based sugar plantation purely for export. They calculated how many calories ($ cost) needed for slave colony versus revenue generated by sugar.... We know how that calculation came out. <br /><br />FYI lots of whites from Carolinas are actually descendents of those yeoman farmers dispossessed by Royal edicts and Aristos strangelhold over Barbados and importaion of African slaves. Those yeoman mostly came to Carolina but some went to Jamaica. My ancestors (shallop ship owners) collected "headrights" (land parcels in lieu of cash) for arranging transport to Carolinas.<br />A similar calorie calculation was done in late 18th C just as Industrial Rev geared up in Mother England. "Scientist" were tasked with calculating profits of newly urbanized workers in the mills and steel factories in Midlands. The whole idea of "taking tea" was based on extractable work from sugar and caffeine (tea) that could be rung out of them at least cost<br /><br />Hmmmm! Let's think about that shall we...sugar, caffeine, fat (cream). Do we know of any culutural/dietary changes in last 30 years involving wholesale adoption of those 3 ingredients? Just add tatted up baristas, ditch the porcelain for cardboard cups and POOF!

Bison,
You and I s...re:<br />"The Holocaust©"<br /><br />Bison,<br />You and I share skepticism about the claim about the Germanic tribes diverting scarce resources from defending their territory into massive transportation to massive enclaves of their neighbors, then continuing to divert increasingly scarce resources into defending those communities while enduring around-the-clock airborne bombings from "The Allies©".<br /><br />* * * * *<br /><br />I grew-up on a farm, my four grandparents lived next door. All us kids were home-schooled by a couple dozen aunts and uncles and our extended family, including engineers, building contractors, professional musicians, and independent business owners / operators. Many careers overlapped.<br /><br />My eighth birthday present was a complete set of Encyclopedia Britannica of 1932. In it, according to the 1930 European census, I read the total Europeans claiming to be persons of the jewish religion == 132,000 (one-hundred thirty-two thousand).<br /><br />I read someplace the squatters in Palestine by 1948 was 158,000 persons of the jewish religion.<br /><br />Tragically, the other 6,000,000 perished in "The Holocaust©", because between 1930 and 1945, European persons of the jewish religion managed to produce and grow into adulthood approximately 4,260 persons of the jewish religion per week. If true, those were the most reproducing humans in the history of this particular planet. If true, they accomplished all that during "The Great Depression©", during the worst economic collapse prior to 2008, during street murders by The Brownshirts©, during business and property forfeiture to their neighbors.<br /><br />If true. I remain skeptical.LargeMargehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01530497760743766465noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2686829448547770092.post-11307814611641695202019-05-19T09:21:04.856-07:002019-05-19T09:21:04.856-07:00In a magical thinking universe, doesn't that g...In a magical thinking universe, doesn't that gas tank fill up as desired?

Everyone will need there own master formula for their body type, age, work loads, etc. A stasis minimum daily calorie number to live by is o.k. for an isolated prisoner in solitary confinement. Collapsing systems and society, attacking offensive apocalypse, and spazzing out tribe members will require much more stress foods to power up for action and clear thinking.(just cause a car will "idle" for a long time on very little fuel remaining in the tank, does not mean it is wise to run around on the last eighth of tank capacity like a lot of dipstick people do anyway, and expect pressing the pedal performance when 'desired or as needed') plan accordingly.

Any and all packaged or processing intensive foods can not be reliably used as a barometer for fuel and useful calorie tabulations. Minionites are encouraged to have a full (old school) kitchen workshop type set ups to be their own proper food departments. Almost total field to table infrastructure, to control quality and have knowledge of food types for storage, best prep and cook methods, and its energy/fuel quantity contents and complimentary attributes along with other base ingredients. Skill set wise, a good skilled old school "cookie" (like on cattle drives, or house mothers) that can whip up food scratch like well will be body guarded and looked after better than the squad medic or radioman, due to value to the unit / tribe.
