Bovine University
Last week I read an article (while waiting at Harrisonburg Honda) in the Washington Post Magazine. It was about mad cow disease and how cattle are treated before they are slaughtered. I found it to be pretty disturbing. I've been looking for it online so that I could link to it but haven't had any luck. So now I am seriously thinking about giving up meat. I was successful in giving it up from Thursday until Saturday. If I can find some alternate forms of protein (that I like) I think I may be a basic vegetrarian. One of the items mentioned in the article was that they feed the cattle poultry feces and they also feed them other cows. It pointed out that no species is is naturally canabalistic. So they are going against nature. Well enough on that happy topic.

Saturday morning I had my first Yogalates class. It was good. I am now aware of some muscles in my back that have been neglected. I am looking forward to when I know the positions better and it can be a really relaxing time.
