These are musings/artifacts from the wanderings of a distracted visionary developing his trigger finger. Think of them not as the dictations of a man with it all together, but rather, communications tapped out in half-remembered morse code, from a Jonah in a whale, not sure where he is headed, but assuming there's a destination. Hence, like a Jonah, I send out a nice mix of insights from the inside and cries for help. andrewmwhaley@gmail.com.
Great article about stress and neuroplasticity. The author points out how little our stress function has evolved, but the reality is, most of us have not evolved much beyond the hunter/gatherer phase. We are genetically 99.992% identical to a hunter/gatherer. So, we need to use our modern knowledge and civilization to hack our lives to be ergonomic with our genetics. There is a very long blog needed for this concept, but a few links will give you self starters the raw data and material. 1. Hack Stress with GTD 2. Build the chemical basis for change with diet. 3. Further it with supplementation. 4. Fertilize it with exercise.

Good old Pat Buchanan brings a bird’s eye view to the silent revolution coming to full fruition these days.

MANtage (via BaratsAndBereta)

Some Father’s Day Wisdom From My Old Man Now, they say that as you get older, your parents seem wiser. Well, I can’t say that has exactly been completely the case for me, but a related phenomena has come about. The older I get, the more I quote my dad. So, here’s a little Father’s Day quote from my dad. It resides on the giant quote wall in my coffeehouse, and you can see it in person there for the next week. For those with bad eyes, it reads: “A man with an experience is never at the mercy of a man with an opinion.” -Mike Whaley So, how’s that for a decent and creative Father’s Day gift. Better than a bad tie and cheaper to ship than a six-pack. I love ya Pop! Happy Father’s Day
