These results are tainted. Maybe I haven't traveled much but Wisconsin is FAT.

Bratwurst, Cheese, Milk, and Beer = Fat.

I run just so I can enjoy the food and drink in Wisconsin.

Here in SC there are many wide bodies. It is scary to go to the mall and try and find the normal sized healthy people. Few and far between.

I live in TN and it is apparent that we're #5. After my DH had to suffer through a 'skit night' at his company he told me it looked like the show Biggest Loser when they were all on stage. I went to the mall the other night on a Friday- and it was sad to see how big all the teenagers were. I thought I was fat when I was a teenager. I would have been considered skinny compared to these poor kids. So sad.

They need to break out Wal-Mart as a separate category.

Those who refer to it as "Wal-Marts" get yet another category.

I certainly didn't.

They pretty much own the soul of all their vendors. I've never seen anyone stare down P&G before, but they did it.

Janie, today I quit my job. And then I told my boss to go f*** himself, and then I blackmailed him for almost sixty thousand dollars. Pass the asparagus.

I agree. Pluralization should happen no more than once.

agreed. and superfluous in that case is unnecessary, needless, and dare I say excessive.
