Modern Diseases - Truth or Fiction?

I'm posting this blog in hopes that whoever reads it, actually clicks on this article. This rather short article pretty much sums up my views on modern healthcare and disease. The modern system is broken. We are a society focused on treating symptoms and not actually preventing any real disease. Please take the time and read this article written by Dr. Gary L. Tunsky. After reading it, please post a comment and let me know your thoughts. Does it really sound so crazy that we should focus on being healthy instead of pumping out bodies full of crap every day?

Today I Begin Again

It’s March 20th. There is 3 feet of snow in my front yard, and it is officially the “Mud Season” here in Fairfield Idaho. And while today is the first day of spring, you would never be able to tell by visiting my small town. Especially seeing as how when I left my house at 9am this morning it was snowing, and when I returned this evening at 6:30pm I find not much has changed. And even though the skies are grey, and everything around my house is brown and black from mud, it doesn’t seem to get me down. It seems more like a blessing in disguise. The lightly falling snow and the mellow sounds of Amos Lee playing in the background make me content.

I’m sorry I haven’t been writing more. My goal is to change that. It isn’t that I haven’t been Blogging. I just haven’t been paying enough attention to my original and most fun project of all. - idrocks.com – Indeed it does. Expect more frequent posts, and updates to the site.

If you do want to check out some of the other things I’ve been working on, please be my guest:

CamasWeb – Community Website project for Fairfield. This isn’t really anything I’ve told anyone but Amie about, but it was an idea we were throwing around. Kind of a place for people to get community news, have forums, classifieds, news, etc… Let local businesses use the site. Who knows.

REIdaho – The beginning of a Real Estate Blog. Amie and I both have really been in to Real Estate lately, and we are learning a lot. Stuff we would love to share as well. With inspiration from other people doing the same thing, we have decided to document our travels in this arena. For a while the site will be pretty stagnant I imagine. Mostly just me posting, and getting all the content in place. But as we put more time and effort in to it, eventually we hope to make it thrive.
