Yesterday I spent drinking only liquids and gathering supplies.
I have prepared 8 lemonade cocktails for today.
At the end of the day around 10p, I was very tired and sleepy. Though I was working until 2a, I left at 130a. When I got home I put the kettle on to make some hot tea, then I sat down in a chair, and woke up 4 hours later. Luckily there was no fire. Is it a good thing to sleep like a rock?
I had 4 bottles today. I usually have around 5-8 bottles. Since I was out of the home at 3p, I only had 1.5 bottles, since it brings unpleasantness to the anus. I'd rather be at home if my anus is on fire!
I think it will be a good cleanse.

Mediatemple Gridserver technology
Looks good on paper. A new-fangled web hosting technology is merely a waste of time. Although, they did refund my $20 as per their 30 day money-back guarantee.
Almost every-other web hosting company uses what is known as Shared hosting. They have one Web Server with anywhere from 1 to who knows? number of clients. Each client can host a range of websites from 1 to unlimited. With this traditional web hosting model, the server could become overloaded very quickly and its resources [ CPU + RAM ] will be in short supply. Hard drive space in these situations is usually unlimited because of the use of an NAS.
Enter the Gridserver technology. To alleviate the problem with running out of CPU + RAM, the Gridserver is designed in the method of a Computer Cluster. Basically, instead of 1 computer the Gridserver can support unlimited machines. It is unknown how many machines are actually being used. So in theory, this is a great solution to the limited resources by oversupplying the CPU + RAM demands. However I noticed the Gridserver's implementation of a cluster to be buggy at best. For Example, 1 out of 10 page loads results in a 403 Forbidden error. These errors occur when the web server does not have access to the file you are asking it to provide. So how did it access the file during the other 9 times?
Mediatemple's answer to this issue:
"It looks as though the redirect isn't working and it's trying to call up an error document that isn't accessable. A thing to remember is your domain on the grid is name based rather than IP based. How are you pointing to "mydomain.com"? Since you aren't using our name servers we are unable to troubleshoot DNS issues."
It's true, I was using outside DNS.
So DNS is working 9 out of 10 times? And that 1 time DNS doesn't happen to function properly, in short it tells the web server, "hey you don't have access rights that file!" Wow, that is the some powerful DNS! Its my understanding DNS is used for the SOLE purpose of translating mydomain.com into an IP [ xx.yy.zz.aaa ] and back again. Since when does DNS actually control who has access to files, I thought that was root's job? Perhaps in the Gridserver world, everyone is root?
Anyway it cost me 2 days time to learn Mediatemple is another host to avoid.

Master Cleanse
One of many cleanses "out there".
What?
2 TBsp Fresh Lemon Juice [preferably Organic]
2 TBsp Grade B or C Maple Syrup
1/10 Tsp Cayanne Pepper
10 oz Water
Drink as many as you need for at least 10 days.
In the evening you should have an Herbal Laxative Tea such as "Smooth Move".
In the mornings perform a salt water flush. Drink about 1 qt of water with 1 TBsp of salt. Wait 5 min and see what happens.
This is the 3rd time I have performed the Master Cleanse. My primary goal is weight loss. And to learn I don't need to eat as much food as I consume. A fist size amount of food per sitting is all that's really needed.
In addition, during the first 2 cleanses, I noticed my overly dry feet and dandruff were nearly diminished. I would like to confirm this finding once more.
