The Dave diet

I have a food priority:

A-raw food 

B-food I have made from scratch using A

C-food like B that I couldn’t make from scratch but couldn’t be arsed

D-food that I would need a chemistry set to make 


Portion size wise:

A is worth 10 points

B is worth 7 points

C is worth 3 points

D is worth -5 points


I’m going to write a book ‘Dave’s Diet Bible’ with the help of AI and publish it on Amazon. They don’t check anything so facts won’t matter nor the 10 star fake reviews I will give myself.


In the meantime I’m running a spreadsheet, logging my score. With sufficient data I should be able to do a Six Sigma exercise as I currently don’t have the answers to the questions a doctor is going to ask me!

    ha, digging the Dave's Diet Bible idea or being the engineer type that you are, you should get into the quantified self movement. i did this for a few years. it was an interesting experience. i'm sure the apps have gotten way more sophisticated than when i was involved in the movement. https://quantifiedself.com/get-started/

The collection.

Why do people collect? I have a passing curiosity as to why people collect things. It is often with some amusement to see the extent individuals and groups of people go to in building up their collection of  anything & everything from rocks to records from cars to cassettes. Not being much of a keeper stuff I have viewed them as collectors of ‘what ever’, and, I have to say, with some amusement. Like lots of people I have a collection of CD’s and books that I am reluctant to dispose of through sentimental attachment. Some of the attachment is those living in the moment experiences that I find are fleeting. There are handful of novels and albums that define those moments and remain sharp in my memory but I don’t go out of my way to add to it like some stamp collector. I am definitely not one of those nerds who continuously amass what ever collections - I am happy in my normality. Hang on! Hold your horses! What about… …On December 28th 1984 I visited the Argos store in Leeds and...

The frogs.

‘Rivit’ say the 8.2 billion frogs in the cooking pot. Most of the frogs rivit quietly getting on with their lives. But sensing the warming pot, some of the little frogs rivit a little louder saying there’s a problem. The big frogs come together and agree yes indeed it looks like there is a problem. But after a while it dawns on some of the big frogs that stopping the pot from warming is going to be uncomfortable for them and that won’t do. They croak loudly, calling out the little frogs for scare mongering and assuring all the frogs in the pot there is nothing to worry about. Meanwhile the flame underneath the cooking pot burns ever more fiercely.  The push for collective action on climate change is often stymied by the way individualistic and profit-driven interests dominate, especially when a handful of powerful organizations and individuals hold such significant influence. Economic measures like carbon adjustment taxes and the development of circular economies are steps in the r...

The broken mirror.

In my early twenties I made three decisions that for the most part guided my life. These came about when I enjoyed unfettered freedom to think but also a rejection of what I now know as romantic thinking. Create opportunities. Despite attempts and disappointment, standing out from the crowd had never been in my nature and this was a moment of acceptance. If there were things I wanted to achieve, I would need to create opportunities and lean into them my way. This made me open minded but a bit of dreamer. Go with the flow. My first room mate was a positive influence, I copied some of his ways, stopped being so rigid and learnt to not be so hung up. This enabled me to me navigate an easy course but one that periodically with have me crashing, thrashing and clashing all at the same time. Particularly in situations if I felt I was being pushed around.  Keep people at arms length.  Although I am an uninteresting introvert by nature, I have always pushed myself to make personal co...
