I'm kind of a fan of glitter. Not necessarily on jerseys, but in general.

I'm also a glitter* fan. . And on some NFL apparal it's been fine, but these pink jerseys plus glitter seem a bit much.
*Not the Mariah Carey movie, the sparkly stuff.

Well, this blows.
Americans are much less healthier than the English. What's up with that?
- [A]n international study by renowned researchers concluded this year that Americans were "much less healthy" than their English counterparts. The comparison of late-middle-aged white populations in the US and England, funded by government research agencies in both countries, appeared in May in the Journal of the American Medical Association. . . .
[I]n both countries, rates of disease increase as socio-economic status declines, [and] the national differences were so great that those at the top of the income and education scale in the US suffered diabetes and heart disease at a similar rate to those at the bottom of the scale in England. . . .
. . . [A]nother of the report's authors [says] his inbox has filled with e-mails suggesting causes ranging from the American habit of driving everywhere to the British penchant for drinking tea. "But I don't think any of these single-cause explanations is going to turn out to be the answer," he says. "We have to go beyond first-order explanations such as obesity, smoking and drinking to something more profound." . . .
. . . Many experts agree with Sir Michael that social differences, rather than healthcare systems, are responsible. They point particularly to the intense competition, economic insecurity and high levels of stress that run through American society.

As one would expect from my earlier post, I've never seen it.

Turkish food. I had the Beef Sandwich (marinated chunk of top choice beef tenderloin) and humus. My lunch companion had Adana Sandwich (hand chopped lamb seasoned spicy red peppers and charbroiled on skewers) and Patlécan Soslu (pan fried slices of eggplant, topped with our own special fresh tomato sauce).
The main topic on our agenda for our lunch meeting was bitching about our third boot camp member, but we ultimatley concluded that we're stuck with him because he's our brother. It was a fairly unproductive meeting, but a good lunch.

I think it'll take more than reading one book in translation. To be safe, though, I'm going to stick with zinfandel instead of Bordeaux.

Abso-fucking-lutely. But if I got one now, I'd just be a big copycat. So I have to denigrate your poll.
Because that's how I am. |

She'd be really jealous if you said that with an "e" instead of the second "l."

Penis envy is a male myth. I might covet his pole, but I'm not jealous about it. |
