i am waiting til i don't know when/ cause i'm sure it's gonna happen then/ time keeps creeping through the neighborhood/ killing old folks, waking up babies/ just like we knew it would

Yesterday my herbalist, Mark Mead, recommended that I use grapeseed oil instead of olive oil when cooking. In his words, “olive oil is heaven for the body when used raw. But when heated, it can actually produce toxins.”  Find an organic brand that suits you. I’ve seen La Tourangelle recommended. 
A blurb from Dr. Weil’s blog:
“While canola oil may have the lowest amount of saturated fat, and olive oilmore monounsaturated fats, grapeseed oil is still a useful addition to a healthy kitchen. Pressed from the tiny seeds of grapes, grapeseed oil is a good choice for salad dressings - it has a neutral taste, though some brands may have a slight grape flavor or aroma. It is also ideal for use as a cooking oil, especially for high-temperature cooking such as sautéing or stir-frying, since it can be heated to higher temperatures than canola oil before it starts to smoke. Try it out and see if you like it - look for an organic brand, store in a cool, dark place and don’t buy more than you can use up in a month or so.”

A further description of the benefits of grapeseed oil can be found here.

twenty years of schooling, i just never learned the math

that one and one don’t equal two, they often equal half

while i’ve tried to live the high life, the best that i know how

and i’ve bought my share of debonair, parlaying it on the crowd

oh i, i do believe that there’s no more tricks up my sleeve

the good old days have passed and the dip turns after that

and slowly i’ve become undone, a stranger with a stranger heart

When from out of error’s darkness
With a word both sure and ardent
I had drawn the fallen soul,
And you, filled with deepest torment,
Cursed the vice that had ensnared you
And so doing wrung your hands;
When, punishing with recollection
Forgetful conscience, you then told
The tale of all that went before me,
And suddenly you hid your face
In trembling hands and, filled with horror,
Filled with shame, dissolved in tears,
Indignant as you were, and shaken…
Etc., etc., etc.

From the poetry of N.A. Nekrasov
