Our doom is life, while our weird is our food.
Exercise can vary from rolling over in bed to the self-destructive 
extreme endurance "sports", and the exercise of the mind seems to be 
ignored even though it is said to use lots of calories.

Not even partly possible when both world and earth are poisoned. Given 
the lack of organic food locally, the best i can do is drink organic 
coffee and buy dubious organic grassfed beef. The water should be the 
best, (melted snow) so why is it clogging my expen$ive Black Berkey filter?

How about "You are what you eat"?
My exercise is closer to the "rolling over in bed" model than to what's 
done in the gym, and I look better than I did 30 years ago. Think better 
too.
