Eat Your Fruits and Vegetables

Time was short today because we had to leave work early and visit my brother-in-law in the hospital.  He just had colon cancer surgery, and he’s in tons of pain, but in good spirits.  My brother-in-law is only 45, and was notorious for eating lots of BBQ meat and virtually no fruits or vegetables.  There was no cancer in his family, so it was most likely his habits.  Eat your fruits and vegetables, folks.  That’s all there is to it.  Men need 7 to 9 servings a day.  I get about 7 or 8, so it’s very possible.  Eat one or two servings with every meal, and you’ll hit your daily quota.

This morning I saw Tim Sylvia’s UFC debut from 2002.  It must have been during his steroid days, because he looked more fit and more muscular.  The fight was awesome, and the crowd was giving him a standing ovation for the action, which is so weird because normally he gets booed for his boring fights.  This fight made it obvious Sylvia was going to be a force to be reckoned with.  Sylvia is one of the best fighters in the world, period.

On that same show, Ricco Rodriguez beat the p*ss out of Randy Couture to win the belt.  Great fight.  Ricco will be making a comeback in 2008, and we wish him the best.  He fought a great fight because Randy was on his game.
