Put Down the Cake and Step Away

Here's the latest on global warming

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/health/7404268.stm

On the other hand those of you who preform strenuous activities both vertical and horizontal are burning calories and also ruining the Earth. It's best we all sit in our caves and be still

I almost shot high-fructose corn syrup laden cola through my nose onto the interior of my Hummer while driving to Jack in the Box to pick up two double jalapeno whoppers with extra cheese.

OK they may have a point in there somewhere about people and markets becoming excessively consumption oriented but this latest theory seems a bit over the top for me. As a fat guy, I was so upset by the implication that I am the cause of global suffering that I immediately drowned my sadness in two pints of Ben & Jerry's Chunky Monkey to comfort myself.

Coffee Heathbar Crunch.

And I felt a distinct warming as I rode past vast herds of gaseous moo cows in Wisconsin yesterday; and at breakfast this morning I was served eggs, bacon, hash browns, all prepared in a buttery skillet, along with buttered toast. And of course the fine bovine-esque waitress gave me a bowl chock full of butter packets to add butter upon butter.
Excellent!

Being a larger proportioned gentleman, I was about to go on a rant.

But I need an egg and bacon sandwich first.
