A new study shows that banning fast food commercials could reduce the number of obese young children by 14%. They also suggested that ending an advertising expense tax deduction for fast-food restaurants could mean a slight reduction in childhood obesity. Well, I'm certainly thrilled that this "study" is suggesting what may or not be advertised...they've already restricted advertising on alcohol and tobacco products...now we won't be able to see that Subway guy's old pants before he lost all that weight? But let me tell you one thing...start messing with the Victoria's Secret ads and you got big troubles, my friend. (These are all thoughts on Sunday's dailies...I'll read today's daily when I have more time). Tramps: The way I understand it, you're still gonna have to get some type of converter box if you don't have cable or dish....oh...BTW...we had a great fire yesterday! Craneium: Volleyball team update? Holly: ...snotcycles...well, that's definately going on the fridge with Enke's new lexicon posted the other day. Sarge: Hey...1:59...that's pretty decent under frigid conditions, not to mention blisters & other problems...9 minute pace...that's a gutty effort..you're a tough guy. Stevie Ray: Want to know how to get to Tallahassee? There are directions in the Gator bookstore: "All Dirt Roads Lead To Tallahassee" Deb: IPA beer...wow...haven't had one in years..what does Lancaster have to do with it? That's PA Dutch country, right? Ran 4 miles this morning...36:06 (9:02)...thought I was doing much better, but apparently not. Temps "warmed up" to 47...back in shorts. Ave HR 141 MAX 158...wait a minute...Deb said I could take some of hers....MAX 304. DickyG

I have no idea what that means.

Here ya go, DickyG: Car hits deer, deer hits jogger GuelphMercury.com - BreakingNews - Car hits deer, deer hits jogger GUELPH — In a bizarre accident Sunday morning, the body of a deer that was struck by a vehicle flew through the air and collided with a jogger. The driver was unhurt and the jogger didn’t require medical attention, city police report. The deer didn’t survive. Police are cautioning drivers to be wary of deer crossing streets. The mishap occurred at 8:46 a.m. on Kortright Road at Preservation Park, an area of bush known to be frequented by deer. A 2008 Dodge Charger was eastbound on Kortright when a deer leaped in front of it, causing so much damage that the car is a write-off, police said. As it flew through the air from the impact, the animal struck a 38-year-old Guelph man who was jogging on the sidewalk by the park. He declined medical attention. Another deer ran across the road at about the same time and became trapped in the backyard of a residence, where it suffered broken legs. It was put down by police for humanitarian reasons, police said. Police are reminding motorists this is the time of year deer are particularly active as they roam widely for food. They’re asking drivers in particular to watch for deer-crossing signs, like those posted at Preservation Park.

Ack!

Holly: I have several prs of lightweight ski gloves, also called "liners"...ie: Kombi - they're warm, water resistant yet breathable & occassionally I'll use HeatMax hand warmer packs - gotta be reeeally cold for me though. I have no tatoos, but enjoy looking at some. only pierced ears....ever!
