My wife makes a killer chicken noodle/dumpling soup. I usually engorge myself when she makes it. I was getting ready to sue her and now this fascist court sets a precedent that will nullify my chances of winning.

I'm pissed.

Five Reasons Why Fat is Good

1. Fat tastes great. I see no reason why people should not be able to engorge themselves, stick their finger down their throat, disgorge, and then eat again.

2. Many claim that obesity stresses the health care system. Well sh*t, not if the porkers die twenty years too early!

3. Obesity is revered in some cultures and professions (e.g., sumo).

4. Subcutaneous fat provides great insulation (this can save some Arab oil if people get fatter) and is perfect for floating in the water. As I recall, not many fat people died during the sinking of the Titanic.

5. Sitting next to a fat person provides a great pillow rest for long flights. But the most amusing part of any flight has to be the boarding where everyone is seated, your middle seat is empty, and then a wide one steps onto the plane. Gotta love the look of horror in some people's eyes.

The bottom line is that I am a big fan of F A T and any other V I C E.

Regards,

WS

Good to see there's still some sanity in the court system. Judge should really impose sanctions on the Plaintiffs — maybe 50 push-ups, 20 laps around the courthouse and 10 hours of Richard Simmons sessions.

blaming McDonald's for health problems that included diabetes, coronary heart disease, high blood pressure and elevated cholesterol.

Hmmm....so if my motto is "a balanced diet is a cookie in each hand"...I can't blame McDonald's for my weight gain!?!
