For Kriston

And all the other bearded young men about town.
"[I]nstead of being a man afflicted by nature with a beard, and as such more to be pitied than censured, he was a deliberate putter-on of beards, a self-bearder, a fellow who, for who knew what dark reasons, carried his own private jungle around with him, so that any moment he could dive into it and defy pursuit. It was childish to suppose that such a man could be up to any good."
--P.G. Wodehouse, Big Money (1931), Penguin 1953, 55.

  5. One of the reasons that organic vitamins and minerals are best is that they can be absorbed more quickly into your body than other vitamin supplements as they are more bio-available. Your body does not have to work as hard to digest them and distribute them around your body, so they can be more effective than other supplements.
