But for goodness sakes, you have no standing army and several hundred million armed and wealthy U.S. citizens underneath you. You have significant natural resources. If the U.S. is so EVIL, why the heck haven't we just emancipated you from your liberal ideologies... and split you into about 6 geographically large and population small states? Everyone in the world knows that the answer is that the U.S. is not expansionist... but that for some reason many of our leaders actually believe that these side wars are in everyones best interest. I don't always agree... but to call those making the decisions evil is a step i won't take.

Badmike wrote:The key is moderation, up your insulin intake (briefly), and exercise. No point denying yourself the finer things in life, you could get hit by a bus tomorrow. I had a great uncle that lived into his 80's and weighed about 300 lbs. He ate a huge plate of pasta with sauce for lunch or dinner the last 50 or so years of his life....he probably managed to outlive a lot of vegans, health nuts and exercise freaks. As the great H.H. Munro said, "To think of all the adorable things there are to eat in the world,and then to go through life munching sawdust and being proud ofit."Mike B.
