January 20

Clear up to 11 degrees to start this day and it has already up to 14. Like Dave Barlin says, "Screw Al Gore." My goodness gracious can you believe California? "California Proposes Taking Control of Thermostats" http://www.iht.com/articles/2008/01/11/america/calif.php What kind of world are we going to leave to our grandchildren and their children? Sure makes you wonder doesn't it? I have a pretty good imagination but my mind can't sort all this out enough to even get close to a thought on the subject. Too many fat and sassy people not paying attention allows sneaky probablems to bloom.

I've heard people say about others that they are 'fat and sassy' which I always took to mean something like contented and maybe a mite overly proud about it. Well, I've got half that feeling this morning. I feel awfully fat but I'm not proud at all about eating like a pig last night, but it really wasn't my fault. I used this magic wand that has four prongs on one end to pick food off the plate, stuck it in my mouth and 'ABRACADABRA', it changed into fat. Or a better way for me to look at it. I stuck it into my mouth and it changed into stored fuel that my big body needs a lot of just to operate. Problem with that is I've stored way too much and the excess storage creates the need for even more fuel and so on and on.

Just to let you know, fat doesn't follow me around. Hell, now it beats me everywhere I go. I remember back when in a lot of cases my nose was usually the first to arrive. Well, many years ago that wasn't always the case but now............my stomach always arrives first no matter what the circumstances. I guess I could back in......Nah, you're right, that sounds queer to me too. Old is sure a trying condition.
