SAN JOSE, Calif. (AP) - Officials and residents here are taking issue with the results of a magazine study that ranked their city as one of the nation's fattest.
Men's Fitness named San Jose as the country's 24th fattest city, behind San Diego, Fresno and Philadelphia. Chicago won the designation as the fattest city, followed by Las Vegas, Los Angeles and Dallas.
David Vossbrink, spokesman for San Jose Mayor Ron Gonzales, disputed the results, saying the nation's 10th biggest city is no different from other locations across the country.
The 54-year-old mayor does his part to keep the city off the list of fattest cities by working out three or four days a week, Vossbrink said.
San Jose, which last year ranked as the 17th fittest town, was the only Northern California city on this year's fat list. San Francisco, Oakland and Sacramento all made it onto the list of the 25 fittest cities.
Baltimore ranked as the fittest city, followed by Honolulu, Virginia Beach, Va. and Tucson, Ariz. Last year, the magazine listed Baltimore as one of the 25 fattest cities.
In all honesty, I am munching on some chicken nachos as I post. :-}

That is positively *urp* the most ridicuilous thing *belch* I've ever heard.
