Of all the blogs I have written since 2006 (1,751) the one that is most read
REVISTING THE MURDERS AT GLENSHEEN.
It comes up almost every day on my post stats.
I find it most fascinating that readers really want to read about the long ago murders at the Glensheen Mansion in Duluth.
Thye happened back in the 1970s and people are still interested.

Having a beloved pet automatically makes you a “PET PARENT”.
That is a new term I heard recently and I realize that I have been a pet parent since we got our first dog, “Freckles” in the summer of 1967. Our first two boys were ages 5 and 3 and they loved that dog from the first look at her. I felt the same way and parented Freckles for the next 15 years. There have been 2 other dogs who lived long lives and now for nearly 14 years it has been Miss Kitty Princess Furball and all her many names.
I have taken Such good care of her that she has gotten to be Miss Picky Princess over her food….she willingly munches on her dry food but she has taken to turning her little pink nose up at the canned special treats I provide (like a true pet parent “sucker”)
So we now talk about THE OTHER CAT.
When she walks away from the special food, I just sigh and say “well I guess we will put it outside for THE OTHER CAT.”
As soon as the food is put on the deck, Princess Picky – Poo is very interested, suddenly….she goes right out and eats it before THE OTHER CAT comes and gets it.
I think you can fool a cat some of the time but you cannot fool—–oh you know Abe Lincoln’s quote.
I am referred to as The Slave by another member of our human household and it is true.

SUGAR WILL KILL US
One of the newest food killers is sugar. I heard it from one of those TV doctors who regularly appear with morning show hosts on the 24/7 news channels.
He had a good long explanation of HOW sugar will eventually kill you but I am not quite ready to give up my chocolate covered peanuts..as long as I do not eat 10 pounds at a sitting.
Eating a sugar – free food plan is grim…there is sugar in nearly all prepared or frozen foods; any carbohydrate food like potatoes, pasta, bread and cereal will transform into sugar when it is in the digestive process so it does not leave a lot of options for saving your life.
There is such a thing that is called “THE PHASE ONE DIET” and it is grim. If you do not believe me, google it and see for yourself what a truly restricted eating plan looks like. It is designed by a scientist who is honed in on fungal causes for diseases of all sorts. The reasoning is that sugar and carbs feed fungus so you go on on PHASE ONE diet and kill the fungus inside of your body. I think I would die of the diet if I was on it for the rest of my life.
What else kills us????
Mmmmmm, recently red meat is declared to be a sure killer of humans.
It used to be eggs that would do us in and I suppose there are still proponents of Killer Eggs.
I think milk is a killer too except for milk drunk by calves.
After eliminating all those foods there is not much left to eat.
Vegetables are “in” but they can turn into sugar too..unless you eat only spinach, lettuce, kale and chard. Beets, carrots, beans, peas, and corn turn to sugar when digested.
If red meat is eschewed by all Americans, picture life on the bleak landscape of NO MORE fast food places. Goodbye Burger Kings and McDonalds…..Burger Times and Hardees….Jack in the Box and White Castles….Wendys and Culvers …farewell forever.
No more steakhouses.

What can we look forward to eating?
Non – fat fish.
Sushi
Tuna
(but ocean fish is full of mercury and that can kill you too)
the meat of pale skinny chickens
Green leafy things
Green apples and maybe berries.

That is about it, folks.

How did I get here from discussing the OTHER CAT?
