Last verse of the Dire Straits song "My Parties":-
Now don't talk to me about the polar bear,
Don't talk to me about the ozone layer.
Ain't so much of anything these days, even air -
They're running out of rhinos, what do I care?

Let's hear it for the dolphins, let's hear it for the trees,
Ain't running out of nothing in my deep freeze.
It's casual entertaining, we aim to please...

At my parties all right, you do what you please.

As to why Americans are fat, it's the same reason lazy, ill-educated and TV-addicted people everywhere get fat - cos they're lazy, ill-educated and TV-addicted.

A programme on British TV last night showed an experiment removing all the TVs from a family for 2 weeks. And guess what - they went out walking, playing football, etc instead. Anyone care to draw the obvious conclusion...?

Grab.
