Greeting and Salutations

Let me start by saying Thank You to Don for inviting me as a guest contributor to this blog.
So, who am I anyway?
My name is Gregory Johnson, but you can call me Greg. I can be found in several places under the name 'Thorgrym' (years ago, I began writing a fantasy adventure novel with the main character by that name, so I have used it in many of my online exploits). Don Pennington and I met through Associated Content over three years ago (I know! Such a long time ago!). I was just getting my start in the world of internet writing. I had dabbled in blogging prior to joining AC, but really hadn't done much of anything with writing online. My first published article for AC was: My 10 Favorite Songs by Rush. I have written 26 articles for AC with more on the way, though I am not as active there as I once was.
I began writing online as a way to earn some money working at home to replace the income I lost due to disability. I was hospitalized in September of 2006 due to increasingly severe symptoms that made walking difficult among other things. While I was only in the hospital for 4 days, it took the doctors until February of 2007 to deliver a diagnosis of Multiple Sclerosis.
Recovery had been slow until October of 2008 when I was introduced to VIDACELL®.
Not knowing if it would help, I decided to give it a three month long test. Because it was cheaper to buy VIDACELL® as a distributor, even if only for the three month test, I did so. While it has never been a focus for me as a business, I do actively promote both the product and the opportunity.
Around the beginning of 2009, I decided to begin blogging about my experience with VIDACELL® and other alternative therapies. I called it My Journey to Wellness.
In March of 2009, I published my first book through Lulu.com. The Armor of God is the result of a Bible study that I did on Ephesians 6:10-20. I had written and had it performed as a play several years ago but always wanted to release it as book. I was introduced to Lulu.com by the same friend that brought me to AC. We had been talking about collaborating on a book that we would publish through Lulu.com, but other than knowing about it, she was unaware of how the process worked. I decided to investigate it. Within hours after starting my exploration, I had a proof copy of my book on its way to the printer!
Recently, I began writing for ListMyFive.com. LM5 is:
"a platform where people can earn money by creating, publishing and sharing their own Top Five Lists online. We provide a Free and Fun way for people to earn residual income by sharing information, opinions, knowledge, humor, interests, and input in the form of a Top Five List."

One of my goals in life is to help others get the most out of their lives. I hope that what I write can do that for you. Please check out my previous (and future) works. Maybe the help will be as innocuous as finding a new favorite song or as important as recovering from illness and improving your quality of life - you never know!

Pick Your Nose by Rachel de Carlos

Pick Your Nose
And Eat It, Too
According to Dr. Friedrich Bischinger, a lung specialist based in Innsbruck, Austria, picking your nose and eating it is one of the best ways to stay healthy.

He goes on to state that people who pick their noses are probably better in tune with their bodies and happier people in general. Society has frowned on the habit of nose picking and mothers are frequently heard telling their kids to get their fingers out of their noses, pushing their
hands away and wiping their fingers with a tissue before they can pop that little treasure into their mouths.

The Austrian doctor believes that society should change their views about nose picking and encourage children to do so, rather than making it...Go here for the rest!
