Day Four

Good morning my friends.  As I was getting ready for work at 6 am this morning all I could think about was, "when will I have time to blog today, I have a crazy day ahead!".  And it's true, I am currently running late for an appointment, makes me wonder, "am I trading one addiction (eating) for another?"  Oh, well that thought is to be explored when I have more time.  So today I want to briefly discuss what happened on that television reality show where people sing, you know the initials are AI.  Anyway, apparently two young women had front row seats and one of them was 5'3" and 150lbs.  The ushers (at least they are the ones getting the blame) moved the girls to the back of the house because they did not want them in the camera shots.  Shameful!  That is a perfect example of what is wrong with our society.  Somebody, somewhere, thinks they have the right and authority to make the rules about how people should look and if you don't fit their mold, then you get hidden in the back.  Funny thing is in our society (America) statistics show that 74.1% of the population are obese or overweight.  Now that is a very high number, it seems to me that if we are the majority, then we should be the ones defining what is okay and what is not.  I know if I were in control, those young ladies would not only have sat on the front row but they would have gotten a lot of close ups!  Shame on AI and shame on us for not standing up and voicing our opinions.  Fat people could rule the world, if only we didn't allow the skinny people to bully us!?  Power to the pudgy!!!  Until later, keep weighting on me.  (no weigh in today, no time)!!!
