I was thinking the other day about the number of people in this country who are allergic to peanut butter. Not just peanut butter but gluten, soy, lactose, etc… Why, in the span of one or two generations, do we have people allergic to all these food components? I think I know, but I don’t like the answer.
We have become genetically diluted. There are genes in the pool that weren’t there 40 years ago. Maybe it’s because more people are surviving infancy. Maybe it’s because we’re using more immunizations to protect ourselves that we were 40 years ago.
When I was a kid. When the measles or chicken pox broke out in our neighbor hood, my mother, who was a nurse and a very good one, would send one or all of us over there to play. Knowing full well that we’d get infected. But she also knew that, if we got it early, we’d get it over with and be immune for the rest of our lives.
It worked for everything but smallpox. We had to get immunized for that. Sometimes I think that her method of immunization was head and shoulders better than all the piddly shots our kids are required to get. We got the real disease. We worked our immune systems. It’s like lifting weights in the gym. If you work hard you get lasting results and benefits. It’s like immunization shots are immunity lite.
Now here’s the hard answer to the allergy question. Why are so many folks allergic all of a sudden to food products that we have been using for years? Why are they dying or going into anaphylaxis if they eat eggs, milk, wheat, peanuts, tree nuts, fish, shellfish, or soy products? I believe that they got a second chance at life as an infant and are paying the price. There are so many medical techniques available that allow Doctors to increase the survival rate of newborns. Newborns that wouldn’t have survived even 40 years ago.
Now we have in our gene pool a larger number of genes that would have been weeded out. Defective genes from people who wouldn’t normally in the pool at all. Those genes are spreading through the pool and are affecting us as a body.
For those who would like more information on food allergies, go to The Food Allergy & Anaphylaxis Network.

We all know by now the tragedy that happened at Virginia Tech. I would like to pass along my deepest and most heartfelt sympathy and condolences to all of those affected by this terrible and catastrophic event.
That being said, I wish to comment on some of the news coverage regarding this horrible incident. I have heard almost as much from the “powers that be” in New York City and environs about the Virginia gun laws as about the tragedy itself. So the folks in New York City have different views about gun control. That’s fine. I’m not trying to start a debate about gun control, per se.
I am commenting on one group meddling in the business of a sovereign entity’s right to exercise the choices of their constituency. The people of Virginia voted for the gun law. They’re the ones who have to live with it. If New York wants to keep guns out, fine. Let them. Don’t tell Virginia or any other state how to conduct their business. If Virginia wants to pass a law that gives out firearms to any person over the age of 15, it would be their business. If they wanted to pass a law making gun ownership a felony, that’s their business. It ain’t anyone else’s!
No matter how you feel about firearms, this is a matter of freedom of choice and states rights. If you don’t live in the state then you’ve got no business sticking your nose into their business.

Don Imus shot off his mouth. He literally opened it and crammed in his foot! His comment was derogatory and reprehensible. He apologized. I won’t listen to his program either way. But……
Does he have the right to speak freely? Even though he has a public venue and a commercial audience, does free speech still apply? Sure it does. Just like the folks who are so vocal about the comment have the right to speak their mind. That’s what this country is all about. Free Speech.
I guess that I’m tired of having to listen to everybody’s opinion over and over and OVER again. Say it once and get on with you life. Should Mr. Imus be called upon to apologize. Sure. But, his apology should be to the nice people he made the comment about. He doesn’t owe anyone else anything. The injury is with the Rutgers Womens basketball team. Not the world.
It’s a squeaky wheel thing. Anybody who wants press and has any agenda will use their free speech to chime in on the subject. That’s great. That’s democracy. We have, at some point, to quit beating a dead horse and use the media for some more worthwhile purpose. That purpose isn’t to ride some ignorant rascal until we’re all sick of hearing about it.
Find something else to bitch about. Something that lifts us as a society. Not about some knucklehead’s off the cuff, insensitive comment. Get over it and move on.

Happy Easter Friends… Hi. Randy here.
I’d like to celebrate the new season of Spring with a new direction of this blog. I’m not sure where I’m going with it just yet, but I’m moving away from the commercial blog it started out to be. That part of my life is now on Profit Masters. If you get an opportunity, give us a visit.
Today, Passover has passed over, Joshua the Anointed has risen from the tomb, and Spring is in the air. I would like to give my love and appreciation to our Troops worldwide. As an Old Soldier myself, I know the loneliness of spending a holiday, any holiday, far from home. We recognize their efforts and sacrifices and just how much they preserve all our freedoms.
Happy Easter my friends. Love life and be well.
