no shit, avi. i really don't get why people can't comprehend that losing weight is not supposed to be quick/easy. it's just marketing, people! if it's got a name, people can sell it.

case in point: our IT group is trying to put together a pre-packaged data summarization/reporting package our sales/marketing people can show to potential clients in case they're not sure what they want. the marketing people didn't jump on board until there was A NAME ASSOCIATED WITH IT. Acronyms are key, it seems. if we can give them another word to add to their lingo book to mystify and confuse others, they're happy.

i never even bother to comment on anyone's diet here (they call call me anorexic so now i just say YEA I AM) but if they dare to ask i always tell them that if they're lucky their own children will be kidney/liver donor matches when those organs fail from over-ketosis down the road.

that pic reminds me: last night at Target i saw these HUGE FOAM HULK HANDS that make noise when you punch people. they have moved to the top of my Christmas wish list.

(maybe that's what you should get brother Tobias. and yourself. and then have a huge Death Match!)

they totally remind me of those Sock-Em-Boppers me and my sister used to pummel each other with. only ours didn't make noise. the hulk ones i heard made sounds like an elephant.

also, my sisters were red and mine were blue. which is quite possibly why i detest most sports teams with the color red (Ohio State, Nebraska, Red Wings, etc). she popped hers from hitting my head too much. so we duct taped the holes and kept beating.
