Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, pandas, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
who do you want to fight this? My mom just yanked the option, she made us lunch. Those that are depending on school lunches, they are a bit busier just surviving
There are a bunch of national groups lobbying for changes to the school lunch program. Several of them have been denounced on conservative talk radio as socialists trying to indoctrinate our children.
I love places like that, JZ. Hooray for the good day after the cranky pants shedding!
Bee exploitation doesn't seem to be a big problem.
You think bees only exist to serve you?!? Bee hater.
I AM THE BEE MASTER.
Well, some honey production is essentially collecting all the bee's honey and replacing it with sugar water to keep the bees alive to make more honey to be collected.
I didn't know that! Hmm. I still have a hard time feeling sorry for bees, ever since one stung my big toe. Damn, that makes me a hater. OH NOES!!!
Seriously, though, that does seem shifty, replacing the bees' honey with sugar water. (I am also serious about my dislike of bees stemming from the hey-let's-sting-Steph's-big-toe episode.)
Haters gonna hate.
Haters gonna hate.
True dat.
That particular bee, Steph, died for its sins.
That particular bee, Steph, died for its sins.
As is right and proper.
but at what cost?
I realize this is likely rhetorical... but for starters Walmart doesn't hire *anyone* full time anymore so they don't have to pay benefits.

I think that looking at Jamie Oliver's show as attempting to be a real solution to the school lunch/big corporate farm/food subsidy issues in AMerica is like looking at Extreme Makeover Home Edition as attempting to be a solution for poverty housing. It's sensational TV that will get some people to do something, but will more than anything attempt to entertain American's sitting on their couches.
And Biggest Loser used to be less intense and it was cancelled. WHat they do now is extreme and monitored by drs. and medical staff, but no way is a lot of it in any way shape or form reality. The trainers at least do hone up to that and often talk about how much they hate the "game". I love the show.
