You deserve to be a Colony of our great nation.


Nah. They'll become a colony of France. We don't want 'em.


Germany has first choice.


Why would Germany want those losers?


Good point. My inside information was wrong. Germany won't
bailout much of the E.U.


France and Germany can both decline.


France is dumb enough to want them.


The U.K. is dumb enough to accept.

I have never tried them. But I bet they are more healthy than
standard American fare.
I wonder what proportion of fat gits are in the population of
France compared with America?


I hear Americans think McDonalds is a restaurant. Is this true?
Restaurant is a French word BTW.


The weight thing is not a personal issue with me. I'm lucky. I'm
not defending or supporting any group/country. Just get tired of
the pot calling the kettle black and the rest of the dumb asses
who, just because it sounds good, jump on the bandwagon and
actually know absolutely nothing about a subject.


Time to STFU on this one Harry.

Detailed statistics right here. Heh Heh.

Are you from Mississippi? Fattest state in fattest country! :-)
Most Macdonalds I imagine.


Never been there. Right now, opposite end of the east coast about 50
mi from Canada. I have lived below the Mason-Dixon line in both VA &
NC if that helps your plight.


Also, afraid I'm right in my weight range on the charts.


Level with us Harry. You're really in the Bronx aren't you? Or maybe
in a trailer in Kentucky :-)- Hide quoted text -

I expect they have special American charts.
I am slightly overweight *but not obese.


No, *I live in the English midlands in a rural location. *I was born
in the North of England. *Spent a lot of time in Wales.
Worked for the government all my life, mostly in the NHS as an
engineer.
Now retired on a reasonable pension. Well good by todays standards now
everything is f****d up over here.


Heh Heh, I did live in a trailer for a short time whilst I was doing
up a house.
I had enough after three months. No joke living in a trailer I can
tell you.


Try living in a house in southern NC during August with no AC. Did that
for the first two weeks of a rehab I did until the AC got straightened
out. Guess a trailer in the same location/timeframe would be worse.- Hide quoted text -

Lack of AC is virtually never a problem here. We very rarely have
climatic extremes.
More than 85degF is rare here as is less than 25.
We did have zero F last Winter but it was the lowest temperature ever
recorded.
