I usually love Tom Horn's work, for it's use as research for creating fiction if nothing else, but this book was a compilation of things we in the alternative community were discussing in the early 1980's. It is interesting that the "conservative Christians" have adopted the stances that we hippie kids were standing on, much to everyone's chagrin, back in the day. But here they all are, these theories and opinions, recapitulated with a strange bias. "The world is about to end but please by our book!" I am reminded of Ghostbusters Two, when Bill Murray interviewed the psychic who had published the book saying the world would end at the stroke of midnight that year, just days away. That being said, it is a somewhat interesting read, Tom is a wonderful writer. Why anyone would be happy to see the world end is beyond me, but then I believe the core of the Christian message is to love one another, not pray for the destruction of one's country and anyone who does not agree with me. So while this book is interesting, be wary of believing it. That stuff Jesus said about wolves in sheep's clothing and false prophets abounding rings true as I consider this text. If you are writing fiction, however, it is a wonderful source of ideas to contemplate and gives some interesting plot lines to consider for political thrillers. And YES, the founding fathers were DEISTS. Not Christian. As for the woo woo black magic Egyptian stuff, one ought to be wary of believing any such thing. But it sells books. You go, Tom!

I am active by nature and have three small children (ages 3, 8 and 10), so being in bed and in pain was really tough. But after surgery to remove a large portion of a badly torn meniscus, I had few options but to sit in bed and wait for my knee to heal. To make matters worse, the pain meds the doctor gave me made me sick to my stomach. Three days after the surgery, I was really suffering and feeling pretty helpless. I went for my first post-op doctor's appointment on day four. The doctor told me to ice the knee, stay in bed, and rest for a few more days. I really felt trapped. This is going to sound silly, but this little jar or Penetrex set me free. While searching around on Amazon, I looked at knee braces and other treatment options to get some relief. Then, I happened upon some reviews for Penetrex. I read lots of reviews and was impressed by the great customer feedback. So I ordered two jars. In the meantime, I put my back out while trying to get dressed. So I was a real mess by the time the product arrived, the next day. I applied the cream at about 10 a.m. to my knee and my lower back. I was amazed! For context, since coming home Friday (the day of my surgery), with the exception of being driven to the doctor, I have basically traveled from the bathroom to the bed and back. The ice has helped, but I can't keep ice on 24-7. Within minutes of using Penetrex the knot and pain and tension in my knee subsided noticeably. The muscle spasms in my lower back started to cede. I was a little worried that the cream might impact the surgical sites in my knee, but I had no problem applying the cream around the knee. I applied the cream again about 1 hour later. This stuff is like magic. I have been able to get up and make a cup of tea and write this e-mail while sitting at my desk. I put on a DVD for my 3-year-old Scooby-Doo-loving son. Yesterday, just sitting in the car on the way to the doctor's office prompted my knee to swell like a grapefruit. I have used Arnica in the past when training for the L.A. Marathon. But this product is superior. Penetrex is like Arnica on steroids. If you only have $20 to spend on something for muscle pain and anti-inflammatory therapy, do yourself a favor and buy a jar. If you have an extra $20, buy a jar for someone you love who is suffering with muscle, joint, body pain. I love this product so much that I just ordered 12 more jars, six for me and six for my wonderful physical therapist, Margaret Perez. There are lots of fads and phases, and I have gotten suckered into more than one bad buy in my 47 years. But if you are in muscle pain or have any post-op discomfort related to inflammatory issues or sprains and aches and muscle pains or are a post-op knee patient like me, Penetrex is one purchase you will not regret.

For the price of the bike the features are great. I wanted the disc brakes and the higher end components. The shifters could be better.

So I just bought the bike from performance bike after trying it on the streets of San Francisco. Coming off a heavy, steel, single speed, I can't tell you much about the gear components, but its got them! which is a step up from not having gears. The thing about the bike is that it is really comfortable, probably due to the straight bar, seat (too comfy for me), and seating position. It makes you want to go at cruising speeds, which may or may not be what you want. I was nervous about the buy because I thought I wanted a road bike, like the newest 3.0. But here's the cool part, I think its called the stem, that is adjustable, and you can lower the handlebars for a more aggressive riding stance. I think its a pretty awesome bike, and I got it for 400 flat. And even with all the upgrades I have in mind, its still cheaper than a newest 3.0
