The lessons science and pharmacology teach us about
achieving optimal health, vitality and maximal lifespan with a low net carb, high saturated fat, evolutionarily paleolithic-styled diet aligned with my ancestral heritage and how I lost 50 pounds of body fat. A sorta fairy story.

One More... mp3 Player...
D*mn.
Sweat all over the MP3 player again, my like 5th or 6th in like 8-9 yrs, which finally frizzled out and BROKE.
I use a standard Nano, but it's working intermittently for the same reason as yours broke.
Since there's no moving parts, it's still the best option, but I'm thinking about getting an arm-holder, which will be a helluva lot better for WODs that include running + jumping, versus having it fly out of my pocket.
I have used two Sony NW-series players, because they could be used just by one hand and even without taking them out of the pocket. Very convenient when exercising or even when talking to someone!
They often get the 2 and 4 G players for $20 to $30. Those deals sell out fast, so I got on their daily email alerts list. A very dangerous temptation if you're shopping discipline is less than perfect. I manage to resist the email temptations from Newegg and Buy every day just so I don't miss a great deal on something I really need... but those WANTS can be tough to shrug off! LOL!
This is truly inspiring. Barbara Kingsolver will be presenting writers' workshops at the San Miguel Writers Conference in San Miguel de Allende, Mexico February 19-23. I just signed up. It looks like a rare opportunity to meet her. Are you going?
