Obesity Epidemic of 2004 Obesity Epidemic of 2004 This girl has a short but hysterical riff on the problem of obesity in America so I though I would give her mention. She�s got a sharp wit and a fun photo blog so let�s all stop over at DoTtEdStRiPeS FoTo PaGe. Speaking of obesity, everyone at my house save The Kid and the two female cats is overweight. I had to take my Dallas to the Vet at the beginning of the week. She�s been having difficulty with stairs and jumping up on the bed to act as my giant bed warmer. She has a diagnosis of arthritis, which is not good for a dog that�s only middle aged. She probably would not be displaying any symptoms at all were it not for the fact that she weighs fully 20 lbs more than she should. I�ve been bitching at Ms., aka my better half for the better part of a year that she is �killing our dogs with treats;� �sending them to an early grave,� but before they reach that grave they are in for serious health problems. Well my dire predictions are finally coming true and I can�t say I�m pleased. I would rather have been wrong, wrong, wrong. In fact, I�d give my left tit to have been wrong about this one. So Dallas is on a Vioxx type medication. When the Vet told me what he wanted to prescribe, I�m like, isn�t that the one they just recalled? Yes, it is, but dogs don�t live long enough to suffer the ill effects that have cropped up in humans, who just live far too long nowadays in my humble opinion. I also made him write a prescription for exactly what type of food and how much to feed her each day, mostly so I could have something to wave in the face of Ms., aka my better half when she got home. Doctors orders? Less food, more walk. Wake up America! We�re killing ourselves and our pets! We�re more at risk of dying from some weight related illness than a terrorist attack. Maybe we need a Department of Nutrition Security�I can just see mornings at La Patisserie. Two unmarked Crown Victoria�s converge at the front door. Men in suits and dark glasses with large guns drawn storm the entrance. A voice through a bullhorn says. �Ma�am, put the pastry down, you�ve had enough.� Newsflash from the heartland: The cast page has been updated to reflect two members that I will have a lot to say about over the coming weeks. This is my vent spot and while I have to be all cuddly and nice on the outside, on the inside I am seething and you, gentle reader, will get to hear all about how I really feel�
