I tried some commercial Kombucha yesterday at the Drunken Monkey in Orlando. It was good. Cost about $2.50. There was another brand for around $3. in several flavors. So, let's hear more about it!
Zach - I thought of you this morning because I read something on a Twitter account profile, Gwen Bell mentioned "explosive Kombucha". http://twitter.com/gwenbell. I did a little Google search for Kombucha and learned a bit more about it. So, how is…

Introduction to Kombucha Tea - What is it?
With the assistance of a friend, I’ve begun brewing Kombucha Tea, a fermented tea with many perceived health benefits. It has been consumed for centuries across China, Russia and the surrounding areas. While I’ve now read much on Kombucha, I’ve yet to prepare my own. Hence, I won’t be… Continue

- Hey, Zach!
I just checked West Coast airfares and thought of you. My next stops in Oregon are the coast and Seaside Hostel, Eugene to see the university, Bend to see my friend's property and the area, and the list goes on and on.
All's well,
Michael

agnes said… - Hey! Good to hear from you!
Thanks for your concern. Yes things could be better but I try to convince myself that "what doesn't kill you makes you stronger" and I feel that I've learned a lot while going through all these hardships. I definitely hope to be able to move to Portland in '09 and I make it my goal.
Hope we'll get to hang out again sometime.

- Hi Zach, and welcome to Zoobird. That's an excellent picture of you, by the way. Congrats on the white water rafting and I agree it's a good thing to learn how to work on bikes.
On a side note since you mentioned you loved Wikipedia, I interviewed Brion Vibber, CTO of Wikipedia on Swampcast.
I will be back in Portland next week! I found some cheap tickets and couldn't pass it up. You'll see a few Hawthorne Hostel alumnus on Zoobird if you look around. Gabby and Robby just went to Seaside Hostel on the coast yesterday. Zach (bike rider) hasn't surfaced yet. Joanna is here! Happy is hovering, but not in yet. Take a look around. I suspect you'll like what you see. I am so glad you decided to check in and stay in touch.
Ciao,
Michael

Get Spiritual, Eat Sweet, or Give Kombucha a Kick ::: You Pick!
How many times have you passed signs that call out “You Pick”? Did you stop? I suggest you do. Here’s the drill: pull over, park it (a bike? Nice!) and walk in. Say hi, stretch your body and grab a bucket. Walk over to a tree full of fruit and eat a little. Most places don’t mind at all if you eat a bunch *and* buy some.<br /> <br /> Go hungry! Things taste better when you’re hungry. Don’t worry about what you’re going to take with you. Just eat as much as you want. It’s good for you. So is being outdoors. Did you bring some people you love? That’s key. It’ll be even more fun with people you love...Ken Wilber
Wilber's holism:::A key idea of Wilber's is the holon, which came from the writings of Arthur Koestler. He observed that it seems every entity and concept shares a dual nature: as a whole unto itself, and as a part of some other whole. For example, a cell in an organism is a whole and at the same time a part of another whole, the organism. Another example is that a letter is a self-existing entity and simultaneously an integral part of a word, which then is part of a sentence, which is part of a paragraph, which is part of a page; and so on. Everything from quarks to matter to energy to ideas can be looked at in this way...FOOD CLUB - Zoobird
