If you have a stomach large enough to handle more than a pint of fizzy at any one time, buy two or more pints of fizzy. There's no ban on that.

So....what's the deal with your outfit in your avatar? It's difficult to make it out properly.


Green dress, white cardi, green and orange beads and a green hat. It was St Paddy's Day.

Gaudy and plastic, he means. An embarrassment to look upon. The equivalent would be having a "Christchurch Day" on a bouncy castle and then play a few hours of Quake.

dude, the daily show covered this like, months ago.


heres an idea though. tax incentives for the fit.


How about just putting higher taxes on fatty foods and lowering the cost of healthy foods? Give tax breaks to people for taking classes on healthy cooking and gym memberships or exercise and fitness programs. Making fitness mandatory through all levels of education would help as well.

Also, I started dieting and doing P90X a couple of weeks ago, I already lost 8 pounds and have put on some muscle as well. Anyone who says losing weight is hard is just making excuses for their lack of drive and motivation, I had a gym membership and just couldn't force myself to go exercise as many nights a week, it was too inconvenient with the number of hours I work in a week sometimes (I worked 60 hours this week and 50 the week before) so P90X is a great and affordable home exercise program if you can stick with it. Even though at the most, I weighed 240 pounds before I started it and am only a couple of weeks in and weigh 232, you can burn off fat without a lot of trouble so long as you can motivate yourself to keep at it. And for what it costs to get the P90X kit plus some weights, you will spend that much in your first 3 months at the gym with the cost of regestration and monthly membership costs at a lot of places.

This is America, we're rebelling against the metric system just like we've done everything else over the last 200 years.


I honestly hate the metric system and I am Canadian. I use both metric and imperial at work though, but that's what happens when you are dealing with customers in both North America and world wide. I don't mind imperial to be honest, it's easier for precision machining to use it.

The only down side of it is that it's completely arbitrary.
