Blogging to Resume Shortly
Well, I’m two chapters away from completing version 2.0 of Free the Animal: How to lose weight and fat on The paleo diet. It’s actually been a lot more work than version 1 for me, for various reasons but mostly because I really want to improve it a lot. Anyway, that’s what’s been taking up my time.
In other news, my publisher has begun putting up excerpts on Amazon that cover various topis, 5 in all, so far:
- Natural Disease Prevention and other excerpts from Free The Animal
- Eat Like A Caveman and other excerpts from Free The Animal
- The paleo, Primal, Ancestral Lifestyle and other excerpts from Free The Animal
- A Primal Weight Loss Plan and other excerpts from Free The Animal
- The Cholesterol Con and other excerpts from Free The Animal
They’re 99 cents each.
Now, I’m off to San Francisco to the publisher’s office where he’s arranged for a videographer and an interviewer to do about 90 minutes of footage about the paleo diet. More on that later. It’ll probably be something like a beginner’s instructional guide in 5-10 minute chunks.
Here’s a couple of photos I took while Beatrice and I were in Santa Cruz Monday. It’s a juxtaposition, needing no explanation other than that in the second photo, it’s what we actually ate, and that was after splitting and finishing off a whole dungeness.

A picture worth a thousand words.
Later.
WHAT IT'S ABOUT AND HOW IT WORKS
Free The Animal is an eclectic writing project about everything since November 2003. 23 years, 5,500 posts, 5 million words.
It's a paid membership blog. Most posts are free and public, but only paid members can comment. What determines whether it's free or paid is when I publish. Monday through Friday, free and public. Saturday and Sunday, for paid members. That's it. Membership info here.


That 2nd picture looks delicious. Never had a deep fried Twinkie. Can’t remember if I ever had an unfired one.
But… But…. Oreos are YUMMY!!!! ;-)
They DEFINITELY belong on the Paleo list, right next to the porterhouse and spinach. :-D
That’s THREE oreos, mind – not three PACKAGES like I can eat… (Exaggerating, BTW. Half a package will do for me even when i’m eating out of frustration. I hope the upcoming book has a solution to computer programmer’s frustrations. :-) )
I was a weird kid, never liked frosting, especially on those kid birthday cakes from the supermarket. Never liked Oreos very much, but when I did have them, I’d twist them apart, scrape off the frosting and eat the two chocolate biscuits.
Oh man……..Those crab legs look sooooooooooo yummy!!!
