Random Fact for March 5, 2008

Let me preface this by saying that I was actually planning to write this for today’s fact before I read Jackie’s post regarding the same topic. However, I didn’t get around to writing it last night, because I’ve been quite busy lately. So, my initial reaction was to delay this until another day, but then I decided against it.

I like “swear words.” I think that they hold a necessary place in the English vocabulary and that they can be used to put emphasis on certain feelings that often need to go along with the words they modify. Other times, nothing … Continue Reading

I really like to drink water.

I suppose this shouldn’t be all that much of a shock, but in the past I have traditionally been someone that drinks only a small amount of just plain water and relied on other beverages to quench my thirst. However, recently, I’ve really developed a liking to just drinking water. I don’t really care how it tastes, as long as it isn’t really bad. In fact, I’ve mostly quit drinking other beverages.

I mostly consider myself to be a vegetarian. I started this in early December. I’ve found it to be a very healthy way of living. Through this diet, I’ve been able to maintain my weight at ~285 pounds, which is a lot lighter than I was at this point a year ago. I’ve also just felt a lot better. Additionally, animals raised for human consumption are believed to be a huge factor in global warming. It takes a lot more work to create a pound of beef than it does a pound of soybeans.

Random Fact for March 1, 2008

I like the color orange. I’d have to say that it’s probably my favorite color.

There are a couple of reasons for this. First and foremost, it was one of my sister’s favorite colors. My other sisters have also taking a liking to this color since she died. Additionally, it’s one of the colors of Steadfast Networks, a company that I had a large part in growing to the point it was at when I left. Finally, I just like how it looks.

It’s cool.
