Yeah I know - sorry :/ It struck a nerve.

I've stepped off the soap box and am ready to resume my regularly scheduled programming.

Thanks Copper

I'd have to agree regarding genetics, I'm no doctor, but there has to be something to it. When I enrolled in College, I was 6'3" and 140 lbs and ate like it was nobody's business; I still only weigh 170 lbs, quite light for my height.

My father is slender and I had my thyroid tested 2 years ago and go figure, one of the figures was extremely low (t3 perhaps?), while in the normal range: high metabolism. Even today, my weight will shift by 5-7 lbs each day, I'll put on 7 lbs during the day, wake up and presto, back down 7.

Second hand smoke? You probably catch more **CUCUMBER**e sitting on the freeway!

Where I live there are only two places that I can smoke indoors, my house, which I don't and the lounge at work, which isn't ventilated properly (probably designed by a non-smoker), so I don't do that. I don't smoke indoors, and if you choose to stand next me outside, I really don't want to hear any moaning about it; I'd be tempted to move you myself.

In terms of pain, there's a million ways to find yourself in serious pain; smoking correlates to very few varieties of it. Because of a rare genetic gem I inherited, physical pain and I know each other very well these days, and we're only getting warmed up:

And don't believe the hype, there's nothing mild about it...

If I meet Pain part II, I say so be it; let's see what you got!

He he he. I was watching Chris Rock, uncut, last weekend doing some stand up and he made the following, relevant comments (rough paraphrase):

Too much food in America... Only in America are people are allergic to food. You don’t find people in Rwanda who are lactose intolerant!

Only in America do we make fun of fat people. If you’re in Africa and you’re fat; you’re cool! People want to be like you! If you see a steak out there, you bite the **CUCUMBER** out of it!

And what’s up with not eating pork? If you’re starving, a pork chop is your best friend! Hell, I’d eat a pig's ass if they cooked it right!
