People on the Move
...or maybe not. A sobering tidbit of reality from last night’s 10/11 report: 25%+ of adult Nebraskans are, ugh, obese. “Obesity,” by the way, is when your BMI is over 30. Being simply “overweight” is when your BMI is 25 or over. As we all know, BMI can be quite a poor indicator of “common sense” physical health. Example: For those of you who know me, I’m thin as a paper clip...but according to the BMI formulation I’m straddling the line into the overweight zone.
Regardless, everyone enjoy the long July 4th weekend. I’ve never been a huge fan of Larry the Cable Guy’s humor, but its kind of cool knowing that the Comedy Central taping will be the biggest taped stand-up event in the history of comedy.

I know you’ve heard me go through my BMI rant before, T, so I won’t repeat it here. I really hope they update it sooner rather than later.
That being said, we’re fat. It’s sad how little physical activity some people get. More broadly than that, we’re lazy on all sorts of levels. Laziness is one of the (many) things I fret about while raising Robbie.
Fletch says I'm just the perfect weight July 3, 2009 at 9:44am
I’m just the perfect weight for someone 6’3” - 6’5”. Now, if I was only that tall.
