World's best diet - No flour. No sugar. Everything else is OK.

You will be amazed how well this works.

Try it for a month.

Nice shots of some very large butts!

Of course, Houston won this honor based on everything EXCEPT weight. It's based on such factors as average commute time to work, number of fast food restaurants, air quality, and number of parks.

Being a lardass isn't even one of the criteria.

I'm trying to imagine how much Houstonians are concerned about how they're perceived by the Japanese. The Land of the Rising Sun isn't exactly known for its vast fondness or familiarity with other cultures. When I was living in CHicago and traveling in Japan a few years ago, the Japanese would ask where I was from. When I told them "Chicago", they would point their fingers and make a "tommy-gun" noise like "ack-ack-ack-ack!", and say, "Ah, Chee-cah-go! Gangstahs!". I think Al Capone had been dead for fifty or sixty years at that time, but I didn't have the heart to tell them.

Isn't Tokyo the birthplace of the extra small size condom?

The title defined Subway as fast food restaurants while excluding fast food restaurants called Deli.

What did strike me about sightseeing in Japan is how very very few overweight people you see.

Also how there must be some federal law regulatiing how tall people can be...

A few years back my wife and I were in a somewhat expensive Japanese restaurant along Westheimer Road (In Houston where we live) enjoying some teriyaki and sushi. After were were done with our entrees, we asked the petite waitress for another bowl of rice. She looked at us with wide eyes and mouth agape and exclaimed, "YOU WANT ANOTHER BOWL OF RICE?!" We still laugh about that. It was just a cup of white rice. I felt like saying, "Yeah honey, if you don't bring it soon we're gonna eat you next."
