Pancake Breakfast revisted as vacation rolls on
I'm still hitting the beach and lying on a golf ball - or maybe I got that backwards. Truth be told, I've got so much sun poisoning at this point, I'm not really sure where I am, who I am, who you are, what I was talking about, blah, blah, blah, blah, bluuuuuuh. |

Dieting is a lifestyle change
The other day, I asked Greg Moses if he thought he was in shape. He quickly responded, "Sure, Lee. Round is a shape." Continuing with my support of Greg's health needs, I offered him a new diet plan... |

My health kick kicked back
I've gone on a hunting trip this week - hunting errant golf balls and beach towels in Florida. I could have written new material to fill this space, but that would have involved work, and I'm not sure you're aware of this, but I'm about as lazy as it's possible to be without being deceased. So, I've pulled this little gem from the "So It Goes" vault. It's the very first "So It Goes" column in mint condition - a true classic you five people have probably forgotten all about by now. Enjoy! |

She dabbles - and paints and draws - in it all

Someone just punch me, please
I thought punch only had two ingredients: Punch and a punch bowl. I didn't realize the formula for punch is so much more complex. |

A diet drink dilemma
Because diet soft drinks are lower in calories than ordinary sodas, you may think you have a free pass to drink soda, as long as you stick to the diet variety. In spite of their low- or no-calorie content, however, diet sodas can have a negative impact on your health for several different reasons. |
