Two Foot Diet
On Tue, 27 Jan 2004 19:34:24 -0500, Vance Kochenderfer wrote
(in message ): Steve- It has recently come to my attention that there are certain savage tribes in the world who do not use feet and inches (like God intended) to measure distance. Instead, they use a bizarre system they call "meters" (some are known to spell it "metres"). Is it possible for these poor souls to take advantage of the Two Foot Diet? I have considered starting a fundraising drive to send rulers to these backward areas, but it seems like a daunting task. Is there an easier solution? Vance, your altruism is exceeded only by Pastor Ka-Chung's. However, I would be hesitant to use the metric system since it would not be backed up by the extensive research, ime's, and scientific justifications as the 2FD and the 2PD. Truth is simple. Somewhat Humbly Yours, Vance Moderation in claiming Humility is no virtue! Hoping for a Humbler Future, -- Steve Weeding the Lord's Vineyards Since 2003 |

Well, under it actually. Most people have two feet. Why not simply line up a day's fodder in two lines between those feet. Make sure the lines do not extend outside the limits bounded by heel and big toe. This would solve one of the intrinsic problems of the standard two foot diet (also shared by the two pound diet), namely that the quantity of food to eat isn't adjusted for the size of the person eating it. Smaller, lighter people tend to have shorter feet. Satan! You are the Father of All Lies! Two Feet means Two Feet, not Two Feet. How could it be clearer? The untruthful often confuse feet with feet.

And, my dear Sir, hissing is something I do only in private (except in emergencies). You have my pity. Have I really? I'm so sorry. I'll send it back to you if you email me your postal address. I will pray for you. Why, pray? I took three Humble Pills this morning, Where did you take them, and what had made them humble? A humiliating defeet, or something?

Sorry about my trigger finger and lack of scissors. I cross posted the
last two. Hope the other groups had a laugh. Now I can't do my netcop number to x-posters for a while. -- Diva ***** The Best Man for the Job May Be A Woman |

Surely you can find a heartmdphd somewhere with Two Feet in his humble mouth to Discern the Truth for you. For it is written: 2Behold! and yet again, 14Behold yet again!
