Mouse => Wacom Tablet Saved me from carpal tunnel syndrome (I already had the early signs). Inkjet Printer => LaserJet Printer Didnt't realize how much I was missing. The time savings alone makes it worth it. Design Major => Psychology Major Sometimes it's true what they say, everything in moderation. Once I left art school, I found my passion for design again.

Here's mine: scrambled eggs --> poached eggs --> raw eggs jogging --> sprinting sun cream --> no cream metal pots --> ceramic pots pasteurized dairy --> raw dairy Australia --> Israel
does the ceramic make a difference in the taste? If so, I'm curious what foods specifically?

what differences / or benefits have you seen from sprinting instead of running/jogging ?
I am inclined to think we're built to go for a walk to a hunting ground, sprint and throw an arrow, and walk home with a carcass on our backs, sleep while the women cooks and disects its organs, then eat it. Jogging serves no purpose other than to save time. If we're jogging a lot, we haven't positioned our tribe properly. What animal would you pursue jogging? Would you take your army out jogging? Would you rather jog or ride a horse into war?
