CRAPPERY ALERT - Japanese Foot Pads

Sorry folks - those Japanese foot pads you've been eying at Walgreens or CVS? Well, they don't work. A laboratory in California found that there was no significant difference between the used and new pads.

So....one question....what the HELL is the brown gunk anyways? Nevermind.....I don't think I want to know.

And you thought going to Bolivia was hazardous...

A few weeks ago, I almost had the chance to travel to Bolivia for work. It was a stretch, given that I still do not have a passport (what?? I know I'm not the only one) and I needed to get shots. Yeah, shots - for Hepatitis A and B (double whammy!), Typhoid, Yellow Fever, Rabies (what????) and some other crap. I ended up not going - much to my relief.

Well, my friend Jason sent me this link today. Apparently, going to a NASCAR event may be just as dangerous and contagious as traveling to Bolivia. At first I thought what!! but then I was led to these pictures and thought ah, ok it makes sense. Then, the unequivocal proof is the picture riiiiiight down here.

:-(

Just sad.

BMI: Bullshit Mass Index

I confess that I have calculated my BMI (body mass index) several times and not once have I been happy with that it tells me - well, some smarty decided to put together a photo gallery of women with their BMI as well. The results are pretty surprising.

Oh, and if you want to know what your BMI is just for kicks, check it out here.
