I have to add stuff to the ramen, like a scrambled egg...makes a good egg drop soup. You can also add some chicken or turkey to it as well. Tuna even, if you’re adventurous.

Michelinas between .50 and $1, about 400 calories. Sure, lots of sodium, but balance that out with water.

What a great country!!!!!! God Bless America.

Our biggest "problem" is that the "poor" are too fat.

Only in the US. People can choose. Sometimes it may take some extra effort to find good prices on fruits and veggies, but, what can I say. We’re all doomed.

Dude, there is no amount of satire that either of us can come up with to out -do this one. Fact is stranger than fiction.

We as Americans have it so good that “researchers” and grant junkies who live off the Gubmint tit have to invent stuff to worry about.

Exhibit A: Poor people in America....

Exhibit B: Poor people who don't live in America....

We sponsor 6 children...voluntarily without gubmint intervention.

I get so angry when I see stuff like this:

Attention you stupid POS researchers, go get a real job.
