ANSWERS TO YESTERDAY'S TRIVIA - - - -
--------------
Is MSG harmful? Why do some people make a point of asking
restaurants whether they use it?
Glutamic acid is found naturally in the human body, but some
people have an allergic reaction to MSG that causes them to
feel headachy and disoriented. This so-called "Chinese
Restaurant Syndrome" is probably caused by temporarily
having too much of the acid in the body. Nevertheless, it's
controversial whether MSG is actually harmful. Research in
the late 1960s suggested MSG caused brain damage in baby
mice, prompting a lot of people to avoid Asian restaurants
unless they stated they did not use MSG. But baby mice are
one thing and humans are quite another and there are a lot
of other flavor enhancers (salt, for instance) that when
used in excess are also hazardous to your health.
Are fortune cookies served in China?
Fortune cookies were invented and are popular in America,
not China. Many people credit Chinese-American David Jung
with creating the fortune cookie in Los Angeles, California,
in 1916. Others say that Makota Hagiwara, the
Japanese-American owner of Golden Gate's Japanese Tea
Garden, developed them in 1909. Either way, the idea wasn't
entirely new. Chinese laborers working on US railroads in
the 1800s liked to eat a biscuit with a message inside, and
there IS a Chinese custom of placing messages in cakes. The
fortune cookie may be a modern interpretation of the Chinese
moon cake. According to legend, moon cakes were used in the
14th century as a way for Chinese soldiers disguised as
monks to transmit strategies in cakes without the enemy
(Mongols) intercepting them. Restaurants in China are
reportedly beginning to serve fortune cookies, but they call
them AMERICAN fortune cookies and they import them from the
US with messages in English.

Here's To Think On ... with Ken Darby
------------------------------------
Be Nice! It Can Be Fun!
Returning from a trip to visit my grandmother in Canada, I
was stopped by a state trooper in New York for exceeding
the speed limit. Grateful to have received a warning
instead of a ticket, I gave him a small bag of my
grandmother's delicious chocolate chip cookies and
proceeded on my way.
Later, I was stopped by another trooper. "What have I
done?" I asked.
"Nothing," the trooper said, smiling. "I heard you were
passing out great chocolate chip cookies."
Wow! I suppose it would be awful to say one should
travel with donuts, so that if you were pulled over you
might have a coffee break.
But this cute little story actually makes a good point.
Being nice really is the best way to go and, as the story
suggests, it can be fun.
It goes back to that old saying be nice all the time, it
makes people wonder what you're up to.
Ah! But the law knows. You all know the law I speak of.
Everyday I am conscious of the law "As ye sow, so shall
ye reap." Being nice will only bring the best of fruits to
you. Being anything else will bring anything else, that's
the law.
You might think I am advocating the "Golden Rule".
Sure I am, but not for the sake of you looking good in
public. I am advocating you follow the law so you will
receive only the best life has to offer. The law will not
fail you - ever. Use it to your benefit or to your
detriment - it is always at work.
That's why I suggest you "be nice". It is so much more
fun. It makes life a joy and it brings back to you things
like prosperity, happiness, and nice things.
I am not speaking here of any religious theme. I am
speaking of dead on practical application of a law that
governs our universe. Nothing is exempt from the law.
ALL functions according to its dictates. And it can be
boiled down real simple - - - be nice, get nice - be
bad, get bad.
The majority of people in this world overlook this law
because it is too simple. In our day to day complicated
lives surely nothing so simple can be so powerful.
Guess again. learn to follow the simple, to your
abundance.
Be Nice! It Can Be Fun!

Your Immune System: Delicate Yet Critical
How It Serves You And Why You Need To Keep It Healthy
PART 3 of 12
And that is what I want to share here. This is about living
everyday and every minute to your best possible potential.
Not living in anticipation of your death, but taking an
active role in creating a good life for yourself. And the
factual part is that only YOU can create it for yourself.
Neither your doctor nor your spouse, nor anyone else, can do
this for you. This is a brutal, but real fact. The other
scary part is that the choice to take control is YOURS. So
if you choose to move forward in health and longevity, you
need to learn how to do this.
I am going to give you a variety of descriptions,
definitions, and research sites. I urge you to start paying
attention to what is going on ...or not going on, in your
own body. This is how you can prevent many degenerative
conditions from getting a foothold. That includes cancer.
One marvelous place to find all sorts of information is
"Medline". It is a site used by many health care
professionals and the research community.
http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/healthtopics.html (If the
links don't work, cut and paste them into your browser.) I
suggest you use these links and save them for all sorts of
future research.
Definitions from Medline. Just by reading the definitions,
you will get some basic understanding.
http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/imagepages/8673.htm
"The immune system protects the body from potentially
harmful substances. The inflammatory response (inflammation)
is part of innate immunity. It occurs when tissues are
injured by bacteria, trauma, toxins, heat, or any other
cause."

PERCEPTIONS . . . by Ken Darby
-----------------------DISCLAIMER
Some around me think I am an opinionated old goat.
Whether that be true or not I will sometimes, in this column,
talk about things people don't like to talk about - or don't want
out in the open. Take it all with a grain of salt.
Do your own thinking, and don't accept the things I say as
gospel. They are only mental meanderings from a simple soul.
-----------------------END DISCLAIMER
It Gets Hotter And Hotter!
The Brits have put a supercomputer to work and come up with
the concept that one third of the earth will be unable to
support vegetation by the year 2100. That third appears to
be the hot countries around the equator.
It's the global warming thing. Drought is already a major
problem in Africa, but now they predict it will become much
worse as the years go by. It will literally affect millions
upon millions of people.
They keep coming up with these predictions because they
still think man can do something about it. It is a foolish
idea. Man will never do anything about it if it is going to
cost something. What the scientists mean is man "should" do
something about it.
Man will foolishly keep on going, justifying his actions by
saying he has a responsibility to make money for his
shareholders. It may already be too late to do anything
about global warming. Man may have triggered the beginning
of the cycle, and for sure man's efforts have accelerated
the rate at which global warming is affecting us, but I dare
say man can do nothing now to stop it. And if he could he
would not if he thought it would cost him money.
Speaking of that I believe we can see this truth by the
complete lack of effort supported by governments around the
world. Oh, yes, they put together the Kyoto Accord, then
they all went home and have done nothing about it. So don't
expect man to do anything but accelerate global warming.
Do you want my speech on peace again? It is the only way you
will be able to come to terms with your future. Peace of
mind, being a peaceful person and finding peace is your
personal responsibility. Only you can find it and expand it
to your neighbors and friends.

WHY DO WE SAY IT?
Farce: How did the word "farce" come to mean "comedy"?
"Farce" comes from the Latin farcire, meaning "to stuff."
The early miracle plays were padded or stuffed with jokes
and low comedy scenes - and so this type of comedy came to
be called a "farce."

THINK ABOUT THIS TODAY!
"Freedom is that instant between when someone tells you
to do something and when you decide how to respond." --
Dr. Jeffrey Borenstein

<><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><>
HA! HA! HA!
An Irishman found an old oil lamp and rubbed it.
Out came a Genie who said, "Master you have released me from
the lamp and I grant you three wishes, what would you like"
The Irishman scratched his head for a few moments, then
answered, "I wish for a bottle of Guinness that never gets
empty." "Granted master" replied the Genie and produced the
bottle.
The Irishman was delighted and immediately poured himself a
tall glass of the dark brew. After he drained the glass he
picked up the bottle and sure enough it was full again. The
Irishman got drunk on this one magic Guinness bottle for
three weeks before he remembered that he had two more
wishes. He rubbed the lamp again and the Genie appeared.
"Yes master, you have two more wishes, what would you like?"
"You know that magic, never ending Guinness bottle" he asks
the Genies. "Well, for my final two wishes, I'd like another
two of them"
