yes, this is my big confession to you, my oily friends. and guess what? so are you!

science seems just plain silly sometimes(i am being kind to the point of facetiousness). instead of giving a BP patient $3 worth of potassium supplements per month, they devise a chemical to keep the body from releasing potassium so it will build up in the blood for $150 per month. smart from a business perspective - crazy from a health perspective. especially when the doctor informs the patient neither of the alternative nor of the dangers of ingesting too many potatos or bananas which may seriously raise their potassium levels to the point of passing out or worse. we know where their priorities are.

so i dont put much stock in their isolating this newfound natural painkiller and synthesizing it. i can just imagine what that will cost. but check it out - opium in our spit! how are they going to regulate that?

yesterday, i pulled one right after another right after another. the first couple or three times things went like normal - the first one was slow, the second one filled up faster, the third even faster. but as i kept doing it, i went from calm to giddy to just plain high. the more i pulled, the more the saliva flowed and the better i felt. it didnt make me stupid or foggy headed. i just felt really good, very calm and comfortable, like nothing could bother me. and toward the last couple of pulls(i lost track, but about 8-10 times total) a feeling of euphoria began to become obvious. i thought about this news story from a couple of weeks ago and it started to make sense. i was drugging myself with saliva.

and to bring this full circle, this really drives home part of the addiction to eating, especially those who eat for comfort from stress or loneliness. it really does make you feel better. but without the burden of all that food on the system(anyone who has done recreational drugs can tell you that eating will take the edge off your high), the constant flow of saliva with its secret ingredient is able to be enjoyed unmitigated. oil pulling can get you high.

for gods sake, dont tell the government. i can just see the warning labels on oil, or even worse, carding for it or monitoring sales of too much oil to any one person. i wonder if this will show up on a UI?
