Week 9
Hi All, It's week 9 so I thought I had better do something
meaningful. Today I have the evidence to debunk a theory that was
put forward, with some confidence, in a recent health magazine! The
theory goes that if you think about food your metabolism will
increase and you will lose weight. I put my mythbusters hat on and
went to work. My theory was if thinking about something causes
ostensibly the opposite to happen, if I think about not writing
this blog on Sunday the computer will start up, programs will start
and the blog will be generated. After all programs are the
computer’s metabolism. I awoke on Monday morning, no blog. I then
thought that perhaps I needed to think of not writing something
specific. Again I set the test in motion. Tuesday morning- No Blog.
I consider this myth busted. As further evidence I thought of a
great deal of food on the weekend and actually put on weight! I
thought about having only 3 courses at the restaurant on Saturday
night but ended up actually having 5, which took a lot of thinking.
I thought about having a kebab on the way home. When at home I
thought “was there a correlation between the food I ate and the
pain in my stomach”. With all that thinking, I thought I was sure
to lose weight. Unfortunately this was not the case.
One thing that will not be mythbusted, no matter how shonky the
process, is the fact that today(Wednesday), in the library, Michael
Fagg will be delivering the final, long awaited, episode of
“Endnote parts 1 and 2” in eZone 1 at 10am. Marcos
