Obesity. They say we're in the middle of an obesity epidemic.
An epidemic like it is polio.
Like we'll be telling our grand kids about it one day.
The Great Obesity Epidemic of 2004.
"How'd you get through it grandpa?"
"Oh, it was horrible Johnny,
there was cheesecake and pork chops everywhere."
Nobody knows why were getting fatter? Look at our lifestyle.
I'll sit at a drive thru.
I'll sit there behind fifteen other cars instead of getting up to make the eight foot walk to the totally empty counter.
Everything is mega meal, super sized.
Want biggie fries, super sized, want to go large.
You want to have thirty burgers for a nickel

Want a 55 gallon drum of Coke with that?
It's only three more cents.

The total area of Greenland is 0.8 million sq. miles and the total area of Africa is 11.6 million sq. miles? Now look at Google's map...
I live in The Netherlands. And yes, over 95% of my contacts in Kopete use MSN. Also at work (ISP) MSN is the standard.
"To msn" is a verb over here (msn'en).
