I missed the part of Michelle Obama's spiel when she showed a powerpoint slide of good areas to get exercise and it turned out to be a Google Earth picture of the Washington Beltway.

I would like to see them herded together in long lines like Wall-E.

If you heart hurts after walking up a flight of stairs, the only way to make it stop hurling is to walk up more stairs, that is my theory.

Bus driver here in Oregon did an illegal turn that killed 3 people, no criminal charges and the union is fighting for her license and job back. If you want to get away with murder, use a car.

Some people are going to jail to get health coverage.

here are some handy tips for fattie walking newbies:

1. if you are in a city with heavy traffic (ny, chicago) meh, fuck the traffic. it mostly crawls at three miles an hour and if you make aggressive hand gestures while you are walking / running, generally you will get your way.

2. unless you are in los angeles, in which case you should drive to your nearest health club. this probably goes for AZ cities too only i never want to go there.

3. if you are in the suburbs you are likely fat anyway so why bother? just hop in the car head to olive garden and sideswipe as many pedestrians as you can find on the way.

4. if you are in a rural area, you are either a hippie refugee from the agressive consumerism of urban life and own an organic honey farm in which case you certainly don't need health tips OR you are hard working family owned farming type and have far too little income and far too many things to do to worry about walking for godssakes.

It's true. Before, they just had massive infarcts eating Cheetos on the sofa like real Merikans.

UPDATE: Harsha now claims she was misquoted, by which she means "quoted" but soon realized what she said was stupid.

The fact that people are poorer and may walk more accordingly has absolutely nothing to do with it. Besides, only elitists have time to walk. Real Americans drive to their jobs in SUVs.

Did you ever try to eat a salad while driving?
