I think a lot of our behavior problems in school could be solved if the kids just ate better.

I am sure you have seen the ad where the kids break a Pinata and then happily eat the celery that pours out. You want to see obesity in children, try our Island kids, with the high percentage of Polynesians, who are genetically predisposed to be overweight.

The National Nannies are doing everything they can to mandate what we eat. They are up against the little girl in the "New Yorker" who said, years ago, "I say it's spinich, and I say the hell with it!"

The reason I accept the axiom, "everyone pursues their own happiness," instead of "do unto others....." is because of the "busybody" gene too many of us have.
