I was hoping to go for a quick walk over lunch today, but it is raining yet again. Good for the garden and lawn, not so good for outdoor exercise (although Sunday evening I walked despite the rain, and got wet).

So, instead, some links I found interesting: The Curse (or power) of Low-fat Labels and What Does 200 calories look like?

From an email thread that went around today:

If you get a Ginkgo, make sure it’s a boy tree, not a girl tree.

The fruit of the ginkgo tree smells like vomit when it drops.

–Tim

Good advice I guess, but what I am wondering is, how does one tell a boy tree from a girl tree?
