Another misinformed, misguided but opinionated individual who feels the need to contribute. Now you too can view the world through the the eyes of a middle-aged man who can't see his toes, let alone the point of it all.

Food for thought...

A Roy Morgan poll in Australia has revealed that obese people are 48% more likely to be heavy (no pun intended) viewers of commercial television than Australians of average weight. Deeper analysis of the statistics shows that the more they weigh, the more TV they watch - it appears that fat people just love cooking shows and American daytime soaps.

Researchers are now studying the link between obesity and television - did these people start watching more TV because they are overweight, or did watching television contribute to their weight gains. Personally, I think there is a closer link - food.
