"I’d already thought in the past that chili could be made into the ultimate food, and then it dawned upon me- there is no need to make it into the ultimate food, because it already is the ultimate food." - Jamie Lewis Time for some of the best things in life: spice and protein

Random book rec: Left of Bang. Everyone who does anything in self-defense or preparedness talks about the importance of situational awareness, but it's a hard thing to teach (see Gary Klein for why).

“At least once every human should have to run for his life, to teach him that milk does not come from supermarkets, that safety does not come from policemen, that 'news' is not something that happens to other people. He might learn how his ancestors lived and that he himself is no different--in the crunch his life depends on his agility, alertness, and personal resourcefulness.” ― Robert A. Heinlein
