Welcome To Lardland

According to most of my news sources this morning, this year we should change the phrase "Christmas is coming and the goose is getting fat" to "The INS are coming and the immigrants are getting fat." Apparently some recent study has shown that livin' la vida Americane has transformed our latest batch of greenhorns into a bunch of obese wobble bottoms: too much fast food, sugary drinks, and couch dwelling. It seems we've done away with the Pledge of Allegiance and now we just provide people with a Pizza God menu (home of the Massive Mammoth Extra Cheese Double Titan Super Saturated Ultra Sandwich) .... from Ellis Island to Weight Watchers in one move: "Yes. My family name back in Germany was Grutelgrurberheinz, but now that I have arrived in America I wish to shorten it to Fatso."

Why do people eat this muck?

Did you have an altercation with a fat woman today? It sure sounds like you did.

No, it was a real AP news report as heard on NPR and seen in the "Metro" free national daily newspaper.

It is strange but true that the cheapest food is also the most fattening. Those seeking a stick thin figure must spend spend spend on low-salt, low-fat additive-free farm-fresh organically grown food while those content with the fat can live off the cheaper pre-packaged foods and the 99 cent menu at fast food joints.

If they came to America what do you expect them to eat. You can rest assured of a next-generation of fat-arse baseball fans. And HBO can be assured of future fatties subscribing to their tv rather than going outside and doing stuff.

I was wondering if the Monjo would step in. Of course, no one in England is eats junk food...at least unless it is fried.

LOL! Actually that's Scotland. They are fat-bottomed friers. Us English eat kebabs and curry. We not only steal our words from others, but also our food.

Who This? I am guessing Lynne S.
