I haven’t, but I spend approximately $300/mo on “diet food,” plus effectively one meal per day on “regular food.” Overall, I’m guessing I spent about $13/day on food, but it’s not fair to say I’ve spent $1560 on the diet since June, as I would have spent a comparable amount without the diet anyway.

Have you worked out the $/lb yet? I went the $15 book route, but know someone who could use something more like this.

Hello Peter,
I am a long time listener of Fresh Ubuntu. I just wanted to thank you and Harlem for you efforts on the show. I had always looked forward to each episode you guys podcast. Good luck on the Man Page Minutes Podcast. Hopefully, with community support, it will blossom like Hacker Public Radio.

Been there, done that, lost the T-shirt . Hang in there, Peter. Things do get better, eventually.

Sorry, too, to hear of the retirement of Fresh Ubuntu. It was fresh, and you and Harlem had a great rapport. Looking forward to MPM.

I think you’ll find the Man Page Minutes may have a lot of the same open source goodness that FUP had.

Hey Peter, sorry to hear about the divorce. Good luck with that. As for the show, I’m sorry to see it put on hiatus, but life is life and I’ll have to deal.
