fatty kids taxing the health care system Whats next, the lawsuits? The public service ads? the millions fo dollars forked out by the state and federal health agencies warning kids against McDonalds, Pop Tarts, Cheetos and Coke? When will we deal with the problem of rampant consumerism? Capitalists will say its a free market, let the consumer choose, yet they have problems when their health care dollars are used to correct the problems caused my rampant marketing (nate). Thats all it is. Marketing. Children are like those metal rabbits at a shooting gallery. what to do. what to do. |
Eating fast food isn't the only reason why obesity in children is climbing. Children sit on their asses and play video games or watch the Cartoon Network when we used to be outside playing catch or hide and seek. Children also don't excercise. Why don't we put the blame where it needs to go, to the parents and other people in the child's life (including the child him/herself) that don't teach the kid proper eating habits or proper exercise habits. |
I heard some guy on the radio this morning who wants to raise the age for a drivers licence to eighteen, and lower the drinking age at the same time. He thinks sixteen year olds are to immature to handle a car. And, since eighteen is concidered an adult then there should be no restrictions on drinking. God, I love the idiots of this world who want to tell everybody else how to live. |
McDonalds.... chicken nuggets.... I don't care if chickens don't have nuggets. LS |

I like sushi. I also like chicken nuggets. I am diverse. LS |

But yes, I do. I eat it at school sometimes. If you get it at lunch, then it's good, otherwise, it ends up being a little dry. They make the lunch stuff during lunch, but the dinner stuff is made a few hours before dinner. But yes, it did take awhile for me to get used to it. LS |
|
for me, they had non-sushi asian dishes. that's about it. except they had great green tea. |
debearded clam muscle. cracker barrel endoscopy. fillie fillet. i dunno, i was really drunk at the time. sink and swim. |
Nothings quite as lovin as somptin from the oven. |
I even helped chris making it, chopping the veggies. As much as seafood turns me off, i still tried it. It was his birthday, i owed him that and my labor was involved. It was nasty. Grouper, mussels, clams, crab legs, shrimp and albacore in one dish. Oh my, it tasted and smelled like the Cannery in Monterrey. Yuk! |
|
the recipe called for everythign we used. chris isn't the best cook and is known to half ass things...but the fact that i helped him along...it was made to spec. it would have been outta sight sans the seafood. |
|
|
Except for fresh caught shark. It's like its not seafood. |
I guess that's why I like lemon and butter on my rotten ass, Patrick. |

Christopher, you know what I'm talking about with seafood being from Long Island. Ever been to Jordan Lobster Farms in Island Park? Mecca, baby. http://www.jordanlobsterfarms.com/ \ I love it -- all the staff there wear T-shirts that say, "Lobstertrician". |
Lobstertrician. Heh... |
