am not quite sure what that means, but, if you are genuinely serious about wanting to send money there, the best thing I can think of is finding a church or para-church organization that either has a food pantry, or distributes food.

Good advice (and I'll take it).

"A true...embarrassment of riches."

Here's what that meant:

We....every one of us....here....evidenced solely by the fact that we have the time to do....this....proves we aren't scavenging for food.

Which means....we aren't starving...by any measure.

Yet we (or at least a good portion of us) can still find time to find fault.

Instead of helping.

If you are sincere, try Catholic charities, seems they are everywhere where there is a real problem. And you are right, I need to lose a lot of weight to get really in shape.

I am.....thank you....and....yes....I think possibly some veggies wouldn't be inadvisable for about 6 weeks.

(For the record....carrot cake is NOT "veggies").

Wait, you mean ? NO...no...cut out my red meat. Oh no...anything...anything but that.

Fact is I've done a lot of research prompted by a young friend who is get this, going to be a body builder for a living. I said ok but caught him munching all of the time. He told me he had several small meals, even snacks all day rather than 3 'real' meals.

Turns out...he is quite correct. The caveman didn't 'gorge' 3 meals a day like most of us do and we even all too often, add to that. Obviously, [he] couldn't. So he was always eating what little they could because that's...all they had. (hence we ALL have the fat storing gene)

Turns out, that regime keeps the metabolism high and consumes calories. Binging on 3 meals a day and too often plus snacks, means modern man...eats way too much and too easy and by doing so, slows his metabolism down and adds weight.

Oh and for that group belchfest, cold Corona please...no lime.
