INTRODUCTION:
Yesterday I could not resist the temptation to indulge myself on fresh squeezed orange juice with all the pulp I wanted. Boy, did I ever drink a lot of orange juice with my new citrus juicer. I must have drunk about 12 oranges worth of juice with more pulp than I have ever drunk before. Deeeeeelicious!!! Later in the day, as I was preparing to go to the gym, I decided to get out my old Jack LaLaine juicer and make myself a new creation as I wanted to take this juice with me in a small stainless steel thermos and drink it right after my workout. It was comprised of:
About
50% organic carrot juice,
25% organic apple juice
Then I put this juice in my new Hamilton Beach single-serving blender and added fresh Baby Spinach leaves encompassing the last 25% of my juice creation.
I've always felt the Jack LaLaine juicer wastes too much of the Spinach so I decided to try an experiment by adding the Baby Spinach leaves to my new single-serving blender and IT WORKED!!! The Spinach leaves gave the carrot juice a healthy pulp that was incredible! I didn't want to drink too much before my workout so I got ready then rushed to the gym, as I was somewhat late for the Zumba class. About half-way there I realized that I had forgotten to take the friggin juice! Man, I was angry, but said "Oh well...." I decided that my punishment would be for me to buy fresh squeezed juice after my workout. The workout was amazingly concentrated. I only lasted about 25 minutes before I was done for the day. A Power Packed workout to say the least. I went to the juice bar and decided to get something exotic:
A small Organic Acai Berry smoothie with Organic Blueberries, Organic Frozen Acai Berry Puree, Organic Bananas, Organic Apple Juice and a bit of ice. Although it wasn't as sweet as I would have liked, it tasted FANTASTIC! As I walking around the story I began to feel my stomach reacting in such a positive way it was amazing. It was like my stomach was saying THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU over and over and over again. Not even drinking massive amounts of Aloe Vera juice has produced such results in my stomach. I was able to buy that very same Organic Acai Berry Puree along with some Organic Blueberries. I also decided to add Organic Strawberries to my new smoothie creation among other things. Well, I got home and slowly began to sip the Organic Carrot, Apple & Baby Spinach creation I had left behind. I decided NOT to refrigerate the remains as the refrigerator tends to ruin the quality of the fresh squeezed taste. The next day I drank the remaining Carrot, Apple, Spinach juice for breakfast and did things around the house. When I finished my tasks I took a shower and prepared to make an Acai Berry smoothie unlike anything I have ever heard of.
Organic Blueberries
Organic Strawberries
An Organic Plum
Some V8 Fusion juice
Some Minute Maid concentrated Berry Punch
I had to mix it in order to fit the Acai Berry Puree and drink some of the juice first to make room. WOW!!!! Even without the Acai Berry Puree it was FANTASTIC!!! Really knocked my socks off, it did! Then I added the Acai Berry Puree and a bit of crushed ice and...SOCK! BAM!! POW, BATMAN!!! It really rocked my world. What a smoothie!!! I wanted to see just how this smoothie would react with my stomach so I limited my eating anything else, took a nap, awoke and created this post. I FEEL GREAT!!!
I bought four of these Sambazon Acai Berry frozen Puree packs and each one contains four smoothie packs:

Oh yes, I will indeed be making more of these fantastic smoothies and next time I will add some Alive Wholefood Energizer Ultra-Shake (vanilla) protein powder I just bought so the smoothie will be EVEN BETTER:

Castaneda's don Juan (if he existed) never had it so healthy good!

Former Castaneda groupie, Jeremy Donovan believes that Carlos Castaneda was so incredibly slick he was able to fool the anthropologist experts at UCLA with his first and second books. About four years after writing his first book Castaneda wrote Journey To Ixtlan and so fooled the anthropology experts at UCLA that they gave him a Ph.D!
I have NEVER heard of such a thing being done. It may be a first time in the history of modern anthropology that a short Peruvian man could fools the experts at a major American university, create New Your Times bestselling books in the process, then trick those anthropology experts into giving him a Ph.D. If someone else has EVER accomplished such a masterpiece of don Juan 'stalking' strategy please share the links because I have never heard of it!
Personally, I believe it was after reading the Castaneda book Tales of Power that I began to doubt everything written in those Castaneda books was literal fact. I now believe that, among other things, Castaneda was trying to wake people up to the fact that writers tend to take creative license in order to make their characters more colorful. I COULD BE WRONG, but I believe Carlos Castaneda wanted people to think of ALL BOOKS they consider non-fiction (ESPECIALLY RELIGIOUS BOOKS) and realize that, chances are, every single one of them contains fiction in one way or another. It was a risky thing to expose that he was taking creative license AFTER writing the book Journey To Ixtlan, but since he already had his Ph.D he wasn't as concerned about academic credibility anymore. He had what he wanted and the jealous academics who refused to celebrate his success would continue to badmouth him no matter what he did.
That's my current view, but I could be wrong
Jeremy Donovan seems to think that it would not be an act of genius for Carlos Castaneda to fool the anthropology experts at UCLA into giving him a Ph.D. To Jeremy I say: Show me a situation like this where a foreign anthropology student creates New York Times bestselling, supposedly non-fiction, books then fools a major university into giving him a Ph.D because I don't believe it EVER has been done in the history of modern anthropological research!
I say again that:
IF IT IS TRUE CASTANEDA FOOLED THE ANTHROPOLOGY EXPERTS AT UCLA INTO GIVING HIM A PH.D THEN CARLOS CASTANEDA WAS INDEED AN INCREDIBLE GENIUS!
Bravo Carlos!!!
(rousing applause and standing ovation)

PART 2
Dear Jeremy,
There is no "suppose" here. Either YOU respect my beliefs equally as I respect yours or, through the process, YOU openly admit to all here that YOU are my Spiritual inferior.
I am hereby officially ready to be the better man and yield so that you can feed your narcissistically deranged, ego-maniacal need to win this debate between us
So, you either openly respect my beliefs, even as I respect yours, or I will be the better man and let you win
What's it gonna be, hotshot?
(snicker. Oh, I'm loving this!)
Amazing turn of events, no? After this I'm going to trick a condom factory
into giving me a Ph.D. Hey, everybody's doing it!

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
I recently stuck something in the microwave oven and time cooked it for about a minute and a half.
When I opened the door there was a little cockroach walking around the the inside of the back of the microwave oven
just as happy as he could be!
(((WHAT THE HECK!!)))
I know cockroaches are supposed to be resilient, but this is ridiculous!!!!
I mean, my burrito was steaming hot!
I guess it's true what it says in the Booble:
Cockroaches shall inherit the Earth!
