Acid in your body

There are reams of crazy ideas that one can encounter in Skypeland. I entered a room where a man was speaking about his diet theories. He said that healthy people's bodies are 90 percent alkaline and 10 percent acid. He said he sweats too much since his body is 90 percent acid.

To reduce the acid in his body, he is replacing the meat in his diet with dates which have a natural sweetness which is not due to sugar, and are alkaline. He only eats almonds since they are supposedly the only nut that is alkaline, which he was told by a nutritionist. This nutritionist had been discharged from university since they told the nutritionist there was nothing they could teach her, which he claimed was because the nutritionist knew it all already. This man said that oranges are not really acid although you might think so, but are slightly alkaline.

He started telling us about different sorts of diets for dogs. His dogs are very flatulent, and are on a special diet he has designed to reduce their alkalinity. He is on the same diet and is quite flatulent as well.

He lives in Australia and told us a charming story about visiting a trailer park with hot pools. Many fruit bats flew into the trees around the hot pools. Many of the fruit bats crapped in the hot pools and many people were hit by fruit bat poo. Sounds delightful.

Yes that was very amusing Bob, i thoroughly enjoyed reading your translation. Yes it was only slightly altered to give it that humorous edge. No need to be padantic here Bob. It's a good read as you have turned it to fiction. So we should leave it as it is.
Remember you should never speak ill of the dead either. How do you think Karma will deal with you after your comments about my late wife. I noticed you never wrote about that !!! She has a very large family Bob and you were out of line. They never forget.

I apologize if I did not capture your comments in the manner you deem appropriate bjs. I did the best I could. I do not remember making any comments about your dead wife, derogatory or otherwise. Perhaps you are thinking of someone else.
