Now that summer is here I see more and more fat people in Amsterdam - guess what, 99 times out of 100 they are Americans. You can spot them 100 yards away.

Good motivation to pedal my bike faster and take the long way home.

Sizes in clothing have changed dramatically- and also vary brand to brand. I wonder if brands with kinder and gentler sizing info sell better (For example- if you are a 14 in LEI, but an 8 in Nautica- are you more likely to buy the Nautica?)

When shopping for my very svelte daughter I am amazed at the different sizes that all fit her.

Well, USA is still in the lead, especially for the promising youth, additionally in surgical attempts of
removal as well as implants.

Funny stuff, those hardening fatty substitutes, ping-pong, as chinese might say, boing-
boing as someone from congobongo might say.

Me like those embedded raisins, but even them are banned in USA, just as lost
as that raisin of Einsten, as well as those swinging hips.

Even a regular belly-button was denied of that magic belly-thing

Things happen in two-party-land, as Gulliver tried to point out, many moons
before Orwell and Bush-Blair.
