We do not eat meat. My wife is now mostly vegan and
our now 20 month old son is vegan. We are healthier,
and happier as a result. Here are some meat replacements:

We just celebrated Einsteins birthday, 130 years ago
Saturday Albert Einstein was born. Here is what Albert Einstein,
a great  pacifist and freethinker of all time has said
about war: 

That a man can take pleasure in marching in fours to the strains of a band is enough to make me despise him. He has only been given his big brain by mistake; unprotected spinal marrow was all he needed. . . . Heroism on command, senseless violence, and all the loathsome nonsense that goes by the name of patriotism - how passionately I hate them! . . . My opinion of the human race is high enough that I believe this bogey would have disappeared long ago, had the sound sense of the peoples not been systematically corrupted by commercial and political interests acting through the schools and the Press. (Quoted in The Life of the Creative Spirit, p. 226.)

Time flies , as they say, when your having fun.
We are on the ground here watching time fly by.

This day "Pi Day, ", and Einstein's birthday . We are cleaning and
getting ready for spring. Mostly clouds and rain have prevented
us from going out to play.

Baby Joe will be 20 months old the 29th.
He is now at his "girl friends" house. Joe plays with his 22 month
old girlfriend " Itsa" and hid 4 year old girlfriend "Teetee", as often
as he can.

Twice per week I see a Dr. of Chiropractic. My knee pain is now
minimal. My back pain is fading, and working on my neck pain.
Everyone I have ever known, has a ache pain or ailment they treat
with drugs and over counter medication.
Pills and drug addiction have never been a way of life for me or
my wife.
I have a goal to lose at least 25 more pounds. This is going to
happen. Now I am walking from 6 to 9 miles per day. Not much
weight is lost permanently, yet . It feels great to walk briskly and be
able to breathe fresh air. The lawns are not mowed and blowed
constantly as of yet, so breathe, walk, walk, walk.

So in honor of Pi Day and Einstein, the smart thing to do is do not
eat pie and make cow, pigs, and chicken not a part of your diet.

We are a Vegan family now. We eat mostly vegan, my wife still
insists on eating cheese. I am forced to eat it too but I could live
without cheese. Here is a good article on good reasons to
not eat meat.
