Super Size Me

We lost our signal yesterday from our dish, the wet snow really did a number. That was the first time in the 2 years we have had it that we lost signal.....I used to lose signal once every other month with cable...so it was ok.

In the mean time jen and I rented the movie supersize me, which is up for an Oscar for best documentary last year. Now I have to say Moore's 9/11 is up also and he is the proverbial favorite but SSM is one hell of a movie.

Quick incite on the movie, this guy reads that two girls ages 17 and 9 sue McD's for their obsesity claiming all the ads, toys, marketing and such to intise them in the store then not offer a healthy meal for them. the judge threw out the case because the girls could not prove that McD's did detrimental damage to them.........so here come Morgan to the rescue. He places himself on a 30 day, three meal a day mcD's binge. Now to be fair he had to have every item on the menu at least once during those 30 days.......wanna know what happened.....not only did he gain 25 pounds in a month, his body shut down......he was basically pickling his liver, his cholesterol went from a healthy 165 (which is where mine is thank you very much) to 250.....in thirty days. The doctors at the end said that if he was going to continue for the full thirty days that if he felt any tingling in his arms or chest to immediately call 911 for help......it was that bad.

Jen and I couldn't believe it, dumbfounded really.

So go and rent SuperSize Me today and you won't go to McD's for a very long time
