20. That's probably the case.
I can't stand * and everytime I see his face, I feel the need to punch something. Instead of punching something, I eat.

Must break this cycle. Can someone impeach this idiot already??? x(

2. Perhaps your body fat percentage is inversely linked to the Dow Jones?

5. True
Especially if it's mostly belly fat. Tends to increase with cortisol levels. It's possibly Syndrome X, now called Metabolic Syndrome. Take care of it!

7. Opposite
When I am aggravated, I can't even look at food. I also exercise more, to relieve stress. For me, this is the only positive side of W in the White House, but of course my nerves would prefer a Democratic president.

17. Ratboca, honey, come down here and let Moma Arnheim feed you
I cook very Southern so you'd gain weight. Trust me. I have friends who will no longer eat at my house because they say that I make them fat! Of course, that only lasts a few weeks and then they come back for my mac-n-cheese and mashed potatoes!

21. All I can say is consider yourself lucky that you can enjoy
food without feeling guilty about extra calories.

8. many people gain weight as they get older
What's to discuss? My partner was thin during the Reagan years...a long time ago. Sigh. :-(

The conservation movement is a breeding ground of communists
and other subversives. We intend to clean them out,
even if it means rounding up every birdwatcher in the country.

10. I was fatter during those years
now I'm thinner - probably due to the lack of food.
