No, but I do expect to find close to 30 grams of sugar per 1/2 cup of
cereal. Then most people add another 20 or 30 grams of sugar on top of
that. Cereal, the real cause of the obesity epidemic.

i don't deal well with wheat gluten. I'll spare you the details.

Frosted mini wheats is the answer. I spent five bucks on my last gallon of
milk; maybe it was bundled with a compiler?

But the details are important. More important than an allergy-specific
proscription is the general method.

I woke up this morning unable to breathe. This failure is an important one
for carbon-based life. I stumble to my driveway where I fail to vomit, but
I keep giving it the college try. I don't recall attending a kegger last
night, but when you fail to yak five times, that would be part of the
syndrome.

The answer: a hot bath and a generous bowl of cereal. The milk is
sweetened with sugar and now sitting next to my clicker with about 10 cc of
1% remaining. One per cent is the breakfast of champions, with wheat, or if
you're allergic: rice chex. Rice chex worx too. Discrete bites are
important for a halting appetite. Add a mouis fille or three and the cup of
joe that waits on the stovetop, and voila.
There was bound to be implications for the flesh after a day a failed
attempt to surf towards Glen. I guess that's one trait that Jack Johnson and
I share, as well as his wonderful music. It wasn't for lack of enthusiasm,
I was too heavy in the 50 gallon tote. How would I float if I instead tried
to do so in still water with the same tools?
