But I’m not.  So it’s been awhile, surprised to see I still get some views.   I was debating coming back to announce I was Obama’s VP choice, but didn’t get to it in time…so I guess he got mad and picked someone else…something about needing foreign policy experience.

So remember that fruit from a couple of years ago…yeah well…um…I eat some of it.  Grapes, apples, and bananas oh my.  I got the world’s worst cold.  I was basically sick from the end of October up until almost Thanksgiving.  Normally I kick most colds’ asses within 2-3 days using my zicam.  This cold was the Michael Jordan of colds…draining things from everywhere.  I tried my Zicam, I tried taking Vitamin C, Vitamin D, Airborne…nothing worked.  I remembered one final adage, an apple a day…

The problem was I hated apples, especially red deilicious and all those mushy apples.  However, I remembered I love sour apple flavored things.  I found out the Granny Smiths are what those flavors are based on.  I discovered they are crisp.  Somehow I got over my texture issues with the skins of apples.  I started eating a Granny Smith a day (I still won’t touch another apple…maybe a fuji if you had a gun to my head…anything else and i’ll be writing this from 6 feet lower).  I went crazy and decided I could mix in a banana from time to time too (though i’m not too thrilled with them, but i can tolerate them).

Eventually my cold subsided and I still try to have a granny smith a day.

Well I’m yawning now, might as well take advantage of that…Gnite!
