This photo accompanied an article in today's Atlanta Journal newspaper online regarding American's increasingly becoming older and fatter.

Look at the size of this fookin' elephant riding a little scooter. Notice the tag reads "AZI". After a little basic investigative journalism of my own, I discovered this photo was taken in Austria, and "azi" in Austrian means, "fatass."

So sometimes, what you see IS what you get.

I'm surprised the tire isn't flat!

i'm sure the atlanta journal newspaper could find some oveweight people photo's right here in the good old usa, if they just got off their fat arse and looked!
 
nothing vs. over weight folks,

the point was the newspaper did not have to sensationalize by using a foreign photo to talk about obesity in the usa.
 
i've actually lost 26 lbs since august , about 15 more and i can do the final stuff to get the gastric done . i still got your cousin beat though ;)
 
People getting older in this country is just about an epidemic! How do we stop it???!!! :blink:


Hmmm, I guess I should have worded that to say "getting fatter as they get older."

At any rate, the solution to either seems obvious. Nuke 'em. It should create a nice pile of great soap to sell at fancy boutiques (see movie Fight Club) and it may have a positive short term effect on the lousy propagation we've had lately. And all 'round win-win
