A woman who works for my dad goes a week without food once a year; she drinks only water with a little bit of syrup and lemon juice in it. She's a single mom with two daughters, 4 and 6, a full time student, and works 20 hours a week cleaning the lobbies of apartment buildings. I know her parents help her out with her kids during the day, and sometimes in the evenings, but still, she's a busy woman, and she doesn't have to cut back on her activities at all during her fast. She's pretty tired by the end of week though. So, I think you could probably do it Taylor.

As for the bet, I will buy you your pint of beer that will make you wasted. Then I'll give you a joint to sober you up. Then another pint. Then some Salvia. Mix and repeat...April 14th will be epic.

Yo Taylor, that shit is crazy. I've gone without carbs for a couple of weeks, and that shit just makes you tired and weak. Then again I was hitting the gym pretty hard, so that could account for the tiredness. But, you will feel extreme fatigue, and this will affect your work. People who do crazy fasting typically just meditate, and don't do any physical labour (unlike yourself).



Fuck it...do it. It'll be a good story. On your last day you should donate blood, and then go drinking.

dude, did you even read that Vice article? that bitch didn't do anything for the last few days except stay in bed and go delerious watching movies. even the first half she totally didn't have to do anything seriously physical, like say CARRY FUCKIN' WATER EVERYWHERE (unlike the mock bulimic) *almost fasting one day is one thing, a real 24hrs is another, 4 fuckin' days actually is a REALLY long time. remember that dude that pissed his way out of a snow bank? that would be your undertaking.
besides, it's hard to say whether or not the Vice article was just fabricated. i mean they got busted on the worms thing.

but seriously. Calorie in, Calorie out. if you want to feed that morbid curiousity i say see if you can actually do a regular 24 hrs first, and test out how your body feels about coming off a fast.

THIS JUST IN: I am going to FAST april 10th to april 14th. And we're not talking some pussy-ass "oh I can eat when it gets dark out"... hell no. I am going one ENTIRE work week without eating. I might drink some shit along the way... but I am not going to eat for 5 fucking days.

Part of this is a lent thing, part of this is just sheer morbid curiosity about whether or not I can do it. That "anorexia is easy" article in Vice had me thinking. And then today I inadvertantly didn't eat OR drink a single thing until about 9:00 tonight, and it WAS easy. I bet I can do this. Anybody care to make wagers on this? Let's make it interesting.

McGuinty funds flying squirrel sex research:

With four days until the provincial budget, Progressive Conservative Party Leader John Tory today called on Dalton McGuinty to rein in his government's reckless spending after learning taxpayers are paying $150,000 for flying squirrel sex research.

"Dalton McGuinty is treating taxpayers' dollars like monopoly money," said Tory. "For $150,000 to be spent on this after Dalton McGuinty brought in the biggest tax increase in Ontario's history is inexcusable. The McGuinty government's spending is out of control - who knows what other boondoggles they have squirreled away in their upcoming budget?"

Dalton McGuinty created the Ministry of Research and Innovation in June 2005 and appointed himself Minister. In September 2005, his Ministry awarded a researcher at Laurentian University with a $150,000 grant to study the sex life of flying squirrels.

"This is a symptom of a much bigger problem with the McGuinty Liberals," said Tory. "They have no respect for taxpayers' money. While Ontarians struggle to get by, Dalton McGuinty is spending hundreds of millions of dollars of their money recklessly."

Not surprising from a paper that started out being dubbed "the people's paper". I like Hebert and Travers though. Other than that... I generally read the G&M. But I guess they're all gonna be under the same tent now... I suppose that's the idea.

man, you guys are such conservatives. haha

Whiney kids are future Conservatives
