Nom Nom Nom

Three facts:

1. My grandmother who has Alzheimer's is coming into town.
2. I like to read health "news" from BBC online. I put news in quotation marks because the BBC is very good about representing all kinds of science reporting: the excellent to the downright awful.
3. I love curry.

All of these things have come together to bring me to this article about potential benefits of eating lots and lots of curry! Alzheimer's is a terrible disease; how fabulous would if something so yummy could help protect you from something so horrible?

我們歡迎你！！

I would like to take this time to official welcome my dear friend, partner in crime, Minatory Swimmers personal poet and now co-blogger, Garland, to Minatory Swimmer.

A brief Biography:

Garland has always been. It is possible to trace his many incarnations throughout history. From that little mishap with the dinosaurs, to helping integrate baseball as Jackie Robinson, Garland has left his footprint on the course of existence.
Famed for his great, and sometimes dangerous, sense of humor, Garland made perhaps some of his most lasting impressions as the great wit, author and printer, satirist, political theorist, politician, scientist, inventor, civic activist, statesman and diplomat, Benjamin Franklin and in perhaps his most famous avatar, Yeshua , sometimes known as Brian, the prominent early CE carpenter and stand up comedian. Due to some unintended consequences, Garland does not like to talk much about the former persona, but if you are interested, a biographical film may be found here.
As for his most recent incarnation... well, I'll let him tell you about that. To be sure his poetic accomplishments ( see Theodore Seuss Giesel) and numerous other talents will be a marvelous addition to this establishment. We are lucky to have him.
