I like to read books. I keep an Amazon Wishlist and a Reading List.
I also keep a Training Log of workouts.
This blog is my attempt to catalog what I read and see, as well as offer my thoughts on theology, philosophy, technology, and culture.
I hate coffee.

What is "inflammation"?
But there’s another wrinkle to the inflammation picture. Sort of an “in-betweener.” Ongoing health issues such as diabetes, high blood pressure and autoimmune disorders can instigate what’s known as chronic, low-grade inflammation. This kind of inflammation doesn’t result in the immediate, sweeping response of trauma, but it keeps the body in a constant state of repair response. Immune cells (macrophages, monocytes, and lymphocytes) take charge, and a recurring, destructive process of tissue destruction and repair effort develops and continues until the source of the chronic inflammation is removed. And there are serious consequences to this unchecked, ongoing inflammation.
