Anyway to what I am really writing about.
Victoria's Secret and our fat world.
Today at work I was quality checking a book we are doing and I had to work on something else because I was so mad at it (which is a first ever). It was a book about gastric bypass surgery and lap banding. Normally I am whatever about things but this was a fuckin 100 page book about laying down some cash for a 'healthier' life. OKAY fine yes paying money to make yourself healthier is fine in quite a few situations, a nice pair of walking shoes is one, or the co-pay you have for the chemo you are having to get rid of soem cancer, yes I can see that. As far as I know not smoking and not eating shit foods is the best way you can ward off that cancer, otherwise its natural.
BUT OBESITY! Lets lay it out, you are so fat you can't even walk to your mailbox, THEN it escalates to not being able to ascend a small flight of stairs, or even getting out of bed! JESUS!
but wait!
For a few grand you can reverse your perverse lifestyle of eating and with a new scar to show off you can eat as much as you want with the only side effect of diarrhea and nausea on the daily. You can shrink the size of your stomach to fit back into the plus size section of target. Or even with a bit of additional walking daily you might even be able to have just one X in front of that L. Thats the American way. Somethings not right? Thank god for credit cards and coat hangers.
Which leads me into Victoria's Secret. The lingerie store of lingerie stores. Today on CNN I watched some uptight asshole who probably didn't wear bell bottoms when it was fashionable preach to me about how VICTORIA'S SECRET IS TOO SEXY! HOLY FUCKING CHRIST ALMIGHTY!
Apparently the CEO made a statement saying they were in need of going back to their roots and focus less on sexy and more on classy. Ok fine. But CNN why the hell were you showing the same clip from the runway with the models MODELING their newest line of BRAS AND UNDERWEAR! They have to look sexy, maybe it's because I am a male but isn't the reason women purchase lingerie is to empower them to feel a bit more sexy under their clothes? If not under their clothes but with their Significant other? No? YES! holy shit yes!
I say go ahead vitoria's secret cover up your attractive models with shirts, let a bra strap sell an entire bra, be classy but stay classy. You already are, keep it that way, wait sell more giant sweat pants that say pink on the ass, thats where your real cash lies.

Hows my little SUPER TUESDAY!!!!!!?
Hey Hey!
Super Tuesday has come and gone and where has it left us?
Well McCain has Solidified his candidacy for the republicans (thank god). Those democrats have pushed Hillary ahead of Mr. Obama. Is that a good thing? Sure if you are over 30 years old. Those of us under 30 have come out in droves in support of Obama.
So this super Tuesday has been pretty great. For an assignment I was coaxed into either watching 90 min of it on TV (BLEAH) or participate. While class was being stupid and in session my peers and neighbors were out letting delegates know who they should cast their should vote for. I myself would have chosen this route but sadly class is/was important.
So after 2 hours of watching the coverage what did I learn?
I like whiskey sours and WGN loves their Obama.
Really though. I watched 5 of the main(/only) candidates give their respective super Tuesday speeches tonight and it was amazing to see the differences between the each of them. My words come from not just CNN or BBC for that matter. It comes from good old fashioned C-Span, PBS, WGN, CBS, and the Northland News Station Channel 6.
Everyone:
Critical of the current administration. Positive of their future success. Reducing foreign oil dependence. Says this government is spending too much (they are all right)
Donkeys:
Hillary - SUPER critical of the war in Iraq, Gung-ho on health insurance for everyone including children, Thinks Bill and Chelsae are pretty great. Her mom was born before women could vote, now she is running for president, pretty cool.
Obama - Only running (realistic) dem referred in his last name, very similar to Hillary, WGN wouldn't shut up about his greatness, his adage emphasizes change, Embraces cleaner energy, Thinks chicago is the shit.
Elepahnts:
Mitt - Charismatic, Charismatic, Charismatic, spoke about values, immagration, he lead his speech like a baptist minister I see on TV. Dear lord he is charismatic(or is it egotistical?).
McCain - The most soft spoken republican...ever? Talks a lot about change and progress, he is such a moderate republican that he might not even count for the blues.
Oh wait, he still likes, no loves the war in Iraq...I forgot about that one, he also compares himself to Regan, apparently people older than me care.
Huckabee - likes the fair tax plan (plans on Killing the IRS), thinks he has a chance becuase he has a handful of states in the south. I heart Huckabees.
Happy Fat Tuesday.
