Default OT- Boston Legal - Obesity is Contagious

I few months ago we discussed the result of a study that claimed that
obesity is contagious...

Curiously, a recent episode of Boston Legal worked this into the
plot....where Captain Kirk (Shat will always be Captain Kirk to me) fires an
associate because she is fat and will never make partner....as part of the
defense, they site the Harvard study....

Anyone see this?

David Kelly is a genius. I especially loved Ally McBeal.

I saw it Roger. Boston Legal is one of my most fav shows to watch. Hubby and
I have discussed the fact that their scripts are very up to date. Frequently
you will see something related to something that happened in the news not
long ago on that show.

Yes, and I didn't get it .. Shatner is as fat as she was. I thought
for sure they were going to work the double standard into the
storyline, but they never even mentioned it.


Well, there was just a wee mention of it....when Alan was making his defense
before the fat judge, he mentioned that he and Shat were "overweight".

As a hotel manager, I'll always think of him as the Priceline.com
spokesman. ;-)

Thing is, he is effective.

And from a yet older ad campaign: Promise!

I've seen various brands of transfat free margarines (probably 0.5
rounded down so check serving sizes carefully). I've tried Smart
Balance and it's okay. I haven't checked if Balance has a version.

I hear from folks who never liked margarine who want real butter.
Okay tastes vary. I was raised on margarine so I perfer the
flavor. I avoid the transfats versions because of health reasons.
I don't use margarine out of a false notion that butter is bad for
me, I use it when I remember to buy Smart Balance because I
like the flavor better.
