Comment on Flexitarian by Simon

I’ve just posted on my own blog the announcement that I’m going to go Flexitarian. Now, most of what I read seems to come from the view point of vegetarians thinking they should eat the odd bit of organic lean meat to boost their normally low protein levels, however, I’m coming from the opposite angle. I am a large meat eater, but I recognize there are some health benefits in fitting in a couple of meat free days into my diet.

I guess all of this, as ever, comes down to eating a sensible balanced diet.

Hi Devourer! I just wanted to let you know that in my feedreader I get lots of new posts, but when I open the link, nothing shows up: I get 404 Page not found errors.

I just wanted to let you know that everytime I check your site there are posts missing. I checked last night and saw your Tuesday Thingers post and when I checked back today it was not showing up. I’m not sure if it is my connection or your recent transfer to a new domain.

Hi! the webring BooksANDBlogs still points to the wordpress site; do you need to switch it (will this become inactive?) ?

Here I am! I did see this the other day and then stumbled on the book yesterday. I sort of skimmed your review because I’m one of those who doesn’t like to know much about a book before I read it; so I’ll come back and read it again later.

I’ve read several books about Japanese internment – Snow Falling on Cedars, Obasan, Itsukura — it’s a history we seem to almost be repeating here and such an important mistake to remember.

Mwah I think I commented on devourerofbooks.com instead of here, and if I keep doing that it will get pretty confusing I think I’ll stick with here until you’re 100% foucusing on that site.

Have you read the card yet? The story was interesting. I’m not sure I buy the whole tee shirt thing!

Snow Flower and the Secret Fan is REALLY REALLY good….I recommend bumping that one up, esp. if you haven’t read very much about pre-revolutionary China. Must warn you about graphic feet-binding scenarios…but an excellent read.
