Jim’s still moping around sick, and hasn’t shaved in three days. My work here is stymied and we’re not going anywhere this weekend so one of my instant picks on Netflix (one you don’t have to get in the mail) was Food, Inc.
It is a highly educational, sad, frightening look at most of the foods we eat today and the few companies who grow them, all of the institutional food companies denied interviews. We get a lot of our food locally through farmers markets six months of the year and through a local delivery company year-round. We even get fresh milk in glass (returnable) bottles, eggs, bacon, sausage, apple juice (unfiltered and fresh-squeezed) and orange juice delivered to our door weekly.
One thing I learned is that our food supply is not safe and the Feds are doing nothing about it; the second is harder to get through this thick skull, that if we consumers demand change, changes will be made. And enact Michael’s Law, which would allow (hopefully impel) the FDA to crack down on repeat health code violators who give salmonella and e coli to customers, sickening some and killing others.
The quality (or lack thereof) of the food we eat has a direct result on our wallets, our health, our future, our world. Good viewing, Dee

The scariest movie I’ve seen recently is ‘Collapse’…
Look it up on Netflix; it’s a good investment of your time. I’ve Googled around & done a little research on this guy, but the best statement I came across was from Roger Ebert: “I have no way of assuring you that the bleak version of the future outlined by Michael Ruppert in Chris Smith’s “Collapse” is accurate. I can only tell you I have a pretty good built-in B.S. detector, and its needle never bounced off zero while I watched this film. There is controversy over Ruppert, and he has many critics. But one simple fact at the center of his argument is obviously true, and it terrifies me.”
