I Miss My Afternoon Nap

April 13, 2007 by Jack Steiner 10 Comments

I don’t know about you but old Jack loves to settle in for a short nap. I try to get somewhere around fifteen or twenty minutes of afternoon shut eye each day.

Most of the time it serves as a relatively painless energy boost. Unfortunately today’s shluff time was somehow lost and now I am feeling a little slow and very cranky,

I miss my afternoon nap.

Spider venom to replace Viagra?

April 12, 2007 by Jack Steiner 6 Comments

“New study conducted at Haifa’s Rambam hospital seeks to determine whether toxin found in spiders’ venom can be used to treat erectile dysfunction, after researchers found men who had been bit by spiders suffered from unusually prolonged erections.”

For the full report click here. Or you can always join me in singing

“Spiderman, Spiderman,
Does whatever a spider can.
Spins a web, any size,
Catches thieves just like flies.
Look out! Here comes the Spiderman.

Is he strong? Listen bud—
He’s got radioactive blood.
Can he swing from a thread?
Take a look overhead.
Hey there! There goes the Spiderman.

In the chill of the night,
At the scene of the crime,
Like a streak of light,
He arrives just in time!

Spiderman, Spiderman,
Friendly neighborhood Spiderman.
Wealth and fame, he’s ignored—
Action is his reward.
To him,
Life is a great big bang-up—
Wherever there’s a hang-up,
You’ll find the Spiderman!”

Gaming The Ecosystem Part II

April 11, 2007 by Jack Steiner 3 Comments

Last January I wrote a post called Gaming The Ecosystem. It was a fluff piece in which I mentioned how one might move up the food chain faster.

Well it seems that old NZ Bear’s ecosystem has fallen prey to Global Warming as the darn thing hasn’t been updated in months. And just when I had figured out how to try and jump up the ladder to become a Playful primate.

Rats.

I haven’t done this in a while. The seventeen longtime readers of this blog know that I do this around once a month or so. Apparently I missed March but I did catch January.
