Everybody has a to do list. You know what I mean, THE TO DO LIST, as in things to do before you die. My dad always tells me to just do everything, because when you get old, the motivation is gone, you keep making excuses and you just wish you were still young again. Well I’m only 28 and I already feel like a old man. Most of my friends consider me athletic, but you have to consider the consequences of athleticism. Which is physical abuse, of course. I have a bad right knee, two gimpy fingers, two bad wrists, and a bad right shoulder. Because I’m blessed with youth I can still rock climb, run, cycle, surf and swim. So I must take advantage of this youthful state I’m in. Things I’ve already crossed off the list are: skydiving, white water rafting, bungee jumping, driving race cars, rock climbing, jumping out of a moving car, water skiing, wake boarding, surfing, distance cycling, mountain biking (the real kind) and backpacking. The next adventure is to climb a mountain. Just think of how cool it is! You get to say you actually climbed a mountain. Just the fact that we have the expression “you have to climb mountains…” is a testament to how incredible it is! Think of the confidence and unbelievable feeling of accomplishment.

I was going to attempt to climb mount rainier by myself this summer until I got some new information. First, the national park service will not issue permits for anyone to go alone. Second, you must cross a glacier to reach the summit. This means that you have to know crevasse rescue techniques. Since I have never crossed a glacier before I would have to go up there and take a crevasse rescue class which is here:

My main reason for wanting to go at it alone is because I didn’t think anyone is adventurous enough to take on this challenge. I would like to go with a partner or a team, if any of you would like to come. My other choices would be: looking for a partner on craigslist or going with an expedition team, which is here:

I’m wondering if anyone would like to take me up on one of these offers. I will provide the transportation. And I also plan to stay a couple of days in Seattle to see friends, site see, party and over self indulge in decadence and mischief.

Now I’m a little buzzed right now so excuse any misspellings…. Well I misspell stuff all the time anyways……

GMO’s GMO’s GMO’s! A few years ago I would of told you an uneducated theory about them. I would of told you that they are necessary for the world’s ever increasing population. They are resistant to disease, grow fast, resistant to drought, taste good, they’re asthetically better and are rich in nutrients. Guess what I was fucking wrong! I belived all the media hype. Yes I admit it I was a drone, but now I know the truth.
This is the story of High Fructose Corn Syrup. Yes, you heard it right, a product that’s in almost everything we eat. So you ask now what’s wrong with sugar Chanman? Well that question is the first thing wrong with it. The first thing is that it is not real sugar. It’s not the table sugar we’re all thinking about. It comes from geneticaly modified corn, corn that’s been modified to be sweeter. That same modification has altered the way our bodies metabolize it. Most of the time someone thinks about sugar, they think about the rush they get when they eat it. This is not the case with HFCS. Our bodies metabolize it in the liver. The process begins with the liver turning it into trigylcerides (which is fat) and it alters the way we produce insulin, which is escenssial to the way we metabolize blood sugar. So that makes it a double wammy! We get fat and we become diabetic. Well I’ll admit that you have to be genetically prone to diabetes to become diabetic, but this accelerates it. Why do you think America has the highest percentage of diabetes in the world? The EU has already banned GMO’s and america is fat and diabetic. You may think that there is not that much HFCS in your food. I’m gonna prove you wrong. In one pack of ketcup from Mcdonald’s is one table spoon of HFCS. In Yoplait yougurt, which is product that’s marketed as healthy there is 10 table spoons of HFCS. Remember the last time you put 10 table spoons of sugar in your coffee? It was like a sugar explosion!
FUCKING CHEW ON THAT!
Let’s see how far we’ve come.

Spring break is here! woo hoo. I’ve been studying for up to 12 hours a day for weeks now and my head was about to explode….. So, the agenda for the next 10 days is, BBQ tomorrow which is sunday the 23rd. and backpacking for six days in sunny Ojai California. Everybody is welcome to join. The BBQ is a small scale of the monster 4th of July BBQ here at the chan house. If you know about that party, you know this will be monster fun…. Now everybody wants the details on the backpacking trip. So here it is:we leave monday the 24th, 6 days in the wilderness of Ojai California, we will cross two rivers, we will bring all supplies with us, we have a guide, 1st day 8-12 hours hiking, 2-3 hours of hiking on consecutive days, there are natural hot springs in the area which we will visit, so far the crew is 5 peeplez. Remember everybody is welcome. I can’t wait this is gonna be so much fun
