I'll take my chances south of the Red River and north of the Rio Grande.... but that's just me.. your mileage may vary.

States in New England top a new set of rankings, while the South still lags.
If you want to be healthy, live in Vermont--or at least act like you do. It is the healthiest state in the country, according to a new report from the nonprofit United Health Foundation.

No doubt about it. If I lived in Louisiana I’d weigh 600 lbs.
Ya get people in the farming area that grow watermelons and potatoes, with 3000 pound steaks walking around their pastures, they tend to be fat and bloated.
I live in Colorado and think there are a lot of fat heads in the state government, second highest taxes because of the rats.
“I recently turned 65 and had to choose a new primary care physician for my Medicare program.
After two visits and exhaustive lab tests, he said I was doing “fairly well” for my age.
A little concerned about that comment, I couldn’t resist asking him, “Do you think I will live to be 80?”
He asked: Do you smoke tobacco or drink alcoholic beverages?”
“Oh no,” I replied. “I don’t do drugs, either.”
“Do you have many friends and entertain frequently?”
“I said, “No, I usually stay home and keep to myself”.
“Do you eat rib-eye steaks and barbecued ribs?”
I said, “No, my other doctor said that all red meat is unhealthy!”
“Do you spend a lot of time in the sun, like playing golf, sailing, hiking, or bicycling?”
“No, I don’t,” I said.
“Do you gamble, drive fast cars, or have a lot of sex?”
“No,” I said. “I don’t do any of those things.”
He looked at me and said, “Then why do you give a s**t?”
Now that was funny! Thanks!
Vermont= Ben and Jerry’s fat libtard Ice Cream
Hee-hee! YOu got that right, Allegra! We are NOT Bugs Bunny!
Hmmmm...now where did I put those mini-Reeses peanut butter
cups from Halloween?
Oh! There they are...*munch-munch*
I bet there’s a correlation between racial makeup and healthiest.
I love all God’s children, but statistically in the country caucasians live the longest.
LOL!
Of course with you around, those bunnies didn’t die of
old age!
maybe so, maybe no....

Made my day!
Thanks for the ping Allegra!
Oklahoma may be 49th in the poll along with low numbers for the rest of the south but I bet we enjoy living more in our states that are mostly conservative then we would in New England where my blood pressure which is low would be through the roof.
Spent nine long, miserable months in MA and said never again — wanted back to common sense and conservative values.
In other words fewer people lose money casino gambling in states where it is illegal?
Thanks for the porn.
Seriously.... just hang out at any Walmart parking lot in E. TX ... watch the crowd going in and you'll change your mind. As a friend of mine used to comment...."We live in a grocery-rich environment here".... :)
Whats the name of the place down there that gives away a 72oz steak ??
LMAO !!
The hands-down unhealthiest state is the state of LIBERALISM.
Yep ........has to really suck to die of nothing !
