After years of struggling and being hungry from the time I wake up until lunch I have decided to start having lunch for breakfast. The granola bars and nuts and eggs and cereal and yogurt do me no good. Today, I’ll be enjoying a rice and teriyaki chicken bowl thing from Trader Joe’s before 8am. I feel a little bit like Louis XIV as he unknowingly ruined France.

I went to the doctor yesterday. The doctor told me to stop drinking so much coffee. I asked him how he could be so certain lots of coffee is ultimately bad for you considering everyone, at one time, thought the world was flat, the earth was the center of the universe, Columbus was a fine man, etc. Larry Kasden once said something like…”When was the last time you read about something that you actually knew about and the writer got it right?” Think about it. Or don’t. I’m sure the doctor hated me and this remark is awful. I can’t stand myself and I might drink less coffee because of it just to torture myself.
Nick Naylor: My point is that you have to think for yourself. If your parents told you that chocolate was dangerous would you take their word for it?

Nick Naylor: Exactly! So perhaps instead of acting like sheep when it comes to cigarettes you should find out for yourself.

Dear Laura,
My cynicism and wonderful looks have once again gotten the best of me. More importantly, your facts spoke for themselves and I regret almost everything I have said about organic foods. In fact, I regret almost everything I have ever said or written about anything, especially when I used the word “fact” or some derivation of “fact” four times in one paragraph. When that happens they say it is best to just ignore everything.
I am sorry and, while I hope I am forgiven, I do not expect to be. After all, a sorry solves very little.
Thank you again for teaching me an important lesson.

Please note, we didn’t really win the game with a two out rally in the bottom of the last inning but we thought it was the bottom of the last inning because the games are timed and we were in the bottom of the sixth and time had run out so we were playing as if there would be no seventh inning and technically there should have been no seventh inning but there was.
You find out life's this game of inches, so is football. Because in either game - life or football - the margin for error is so small. I mean, one half a step too late or too early and you don't quite make it. One half second too slow, too fast and you don't quite catch it. The inches we need are everywhere around us. They're in every break of the game, every minute, every second. On this team we fight for that inch. On this team we tear ourselves and everyone else around us to pieces for that inch. We claw with our fingernails for that inch. Because we know when add up all those inches, that's gonna make the fucking difference between winning and losing! Between living and dying!

1. Do nothing. Which hardly seems appropriate in light of the Live Earth concerts.
2. Find a neighbor who barely puts anything in their bin and take it.
3. Continue to put the recycling that won’t fit in the bin in bags next to the bin which I suppose gets to the same end result but I am spending extra energy personally which could be used elsewhere.
4. Call the recycling place again.
5. Put a note out for the actual recycling people next time they come to pick up the recycling.
6. Bring the extra recycling to work.
7. Have a recycling party every Tuesday night and send all the guests home with lots of stuff to put in their own bins.
8. Go to Recycle City for the semi-annual Cranberry Sauce Festival.
9. Read about something that has to do with office supplies and laundry and find out who really ran Ceylon back in the day.
10. This is line #10.
11. Somehow tie this all in with the Lucky Charms recycling program I mentioned in the past.

I was on the beach for three hours this past weekend. We spent the entire time looking at pretties from far away and then deciding whether or not they were super pretty up close. Most of the pretties were actually still pretty once we took a lap.
Really it wasn’t a guest remark but I feel sick about it so I was going to pretend it was a guest remark. Then I went through the exercise of making it my own remark and finally decided it was more interesting to say it was a guest remark and then admit is wasn’t. More interesting isn’t right at all. It is more like I am doing something and admitting guilt and regret and sorrow all at the same time. I wanted to tell the world what I was thinking even though I know the entire event was wrong. I feel much better about myself now and this is what boys do and I am a boy. Thanks for coming out today and I am hoping none of this made any sense at all.

Gordon Gekko: Teldar Paper, Mr. Cromwell, Teldar Paper has 33 different vice presidents each earning over 200 thousand dollars a year. Now, I have spent the last two months analyzing what all these guys do, and I still can't figure it out. One thing I do know is that our paper company lost 110 million dollars last year, and I'll bet that half of that was spent in all the paperwork going back and forth between all these vice presidents. The new law of evolution in corporate America seems to be survival of the unfittest. Well, in my book you either do it right or you get eliminated. In the last seven deals that I've been involved with, there were 2.5 million stockholders who have made a pretax profit of 12 billion dollars. Thank you. I am not a destroyer of companies. I am a liberator of them! The point is, ladies and gentleman, that greed, for lack of a better word, is good. Greed is right, greed works. Greed clarifies, cuts through, and captures the essence of the evolutionary spirit. Greed, in all of its forms; greed for life, for money, for love, knowledge has marked the upward surge of mankind. And greed, you mark my words, will not only save Teldar Paper, but that other malfunctioning corporation called the USA. Thank you very much.
