how about ohio- the most BORING state? i've lived here my entire life and wow it's boring... but of course, i know the grass is always greener on the other side, but holyCRAP it's boring here. funny thing is, it's in a constant state of renewal and construction.. you would think that they would build something relatively entertaining besides barnes n noble and F-ing starbucks.
oh wow! this is really awesome! i'm so jealous of people who can just pick up random crap off the ground and make a magnificant piece of art. damn them!
that's because there's always two sides of the story, and you can't base your opinion only on what you're pissed-off about. there's more to the story that you're letting yourself know.
here's what i say.. DON'T DRIVE WITH YOUR PET IN THE CAR! yes i know, you have to transport them somehow, that's why there's this amazing invention called a carrier that you can put your pet in while you drive. it's completely safe because it should fit the size of your animal, AND it illeviates the need for you to hold your pet in place.
DUH DUH DUH DUH DER DER DER DUMB DUMB people. they need to stop making laws that ban stupid stuff like this. a universal rule because of the stupid will threaten the rights of the smart. stop stupidity at the source, not after the fact. yes, i understand these wreckless drivers are a danger to other people on the road as well, but we need to keep THEM off the road. not everyone else because of them. laws are just an easy-way-out and don't really cost that much money. TEACHING people to behave correctly takes time, effort, and lots of money. hence why we have too many frivolous laws and still maintain an ignorant society.
@jimbo- wtf, man. i don't care who you are, you don't tell random people they're going to hell. @rich- i don't even think the worms will enjoy it because aluminum isn't biodegratable! ha.
but yea.. way to show off how much you like beer, PBR Bill. i'm just glad he has a good humor about death, because i don't know many people who are looking forward to being put in a box under the ground.

@Daneeta- Bush declared an economic stimulus plan to aid people during these financial hardships. honestly, i'm with sid here. where did the money come from if we're 9trillion in debt? anyway.. in order to get one of these checks, she would have had to claim herself on her taxes (i think.. i didn't recieve a check either, and this is how i understood the plan to work). i know some people claim their parents, and of course i don't know what your situation is, but the only reason she shouldn't have recieved one is if she was claimed by someone else. i'm not sure the intricacies of the plan so don't quote me on any of this..
i know everyone is out for our money, but i'm wondering why banks didn't jump on top of this and advocate the opening of a savings account. if i had recieved a check, that's probably what i would have done with it. maybe buy a video game or two...
i know i've already written so much and you guys are bored with my crap.. sorry.. that's the freedom of the internet. anyways-- i just wanted to give reasons why, exactly, these are harmful to your health:
high-fructose corn syrup: your body in its natural state was made to process natural sugars. when you introduce fake sugars, your body has to work harder to try and process them. you're forcing your body to translate a foreign language without a dictionary, and i think everyone can relate to that. we know how hard normal life can be when you get older, as your bones become more brittle and you can't process a piece of fruit the way you should, these inconsistencies can overhaul your body and shut down important processes that are supposed to occur. in this case, because you've been tampering with your blood sugar for so long, your pancreas will slow its insulin process and eventually cause such ailments as hypoglycemia and diabetes.
hydrogenated/hydrolized oils: these are bad because they create false images and you can't digest them. they create false images because they replace real flavors. notice that all the little debbie cakes all taste relatively the same? you can taste these oils in your food, if you are able to differentiate between trans-fat and non-trans-fat foods, because it leaves a film on the roof of your mouth. kinda like after you eat a bowl of fruity-pebbles, there's that gross layer of >ick< all over your mouth and on top of your milk? think of it this way- that film is coating your insides and they aren't going away. you may argue 'yea, but the film goes away after a little bit.' this may be, but your insides don't get the same amount of attention that your mouth does. you're constantly rinsing, swishing, tonguing, and picking at your teeth, while your insides just sith there, absorbing everything you put in it. while all this builds up, your body isn't as capable of absorbing what nutrients you need, and you get blockages. hence the rise in colonoscopy awareness, heart disease, and obesity. oh yea- it's addictive too, and it's in (i would say.. don't quote me on this one) 95% of the commercial food we buy. there aren't any studies about any of this because these two "baddies" have only been used in the last couple decades, and it's impossible to have a long term study on something that has only been used for a couple years. but i digress.. and leave you all the better things to read. be good! buy smart! and read your labels!
"high frusctose corn syrup" and "hydrogenated oil"
you know why they're used? because they're cheaper than sugar and real corn syrup. these two preservatives have only been used in the last two decades, and obesity/type 2 diabetes/heart disease rates have gone up in the last two decades as well.. coincidence? i think not.
other countries do not use these preservatives because frankly, they're too sweet. also, other lands aren't as spread out as ours so they don't really need an extensive use of such preservatives. the high-fructose corn syrup is used to replace sugar. they concentrate the fructose, which gives you more sweetness in a smaller amount of space. also, it's more fake because it has gone through a process to make foods last longer. truthfully, food is not supposed to last longer than nature intended. sams club, meijer, and wal-mart don't help because they sell almost everything in bulk, and the only way they can do that is by bulking foods that can be in storage for long periods of time. but people buy in bulk because it's cheaper. catching on?
hydrogenated oils are used as a preservative and a flavor enhancer. you might say that it replaced MSG. these oils make food taste sweeter and richer. they are also what we call 'trans fats' and we all know the troubles with those (remember McD's said they no longer cook fries in trans-fat? that does not mean the rest of their food isn't caked with it). they're artificial and incredibly bad for you. trans-fats are actually banned in countries because of their health risks. which brings me to what i thought about first when you said "oreos" at the top: oreos are illegal in canada! fun fact of the day.
the reason these are so bad is because they're in EVERYTHING. believe me.. read any food label and you WILL find one or both. always. unless you shop organic and/or all natural. trans fats do not pass the natural/organic code.
