While I wholeheartedly believe this study (because I want to), I have an important question. Did the researchers actually do experiments on this matter, or did they just say that fat thighs were healthy because they wanted to feel better about themselves, and they knew that people would believe anything that researchers say? Wait. I'm a researcher. Hahahaha. This could be fun.

And of course I didn't call you fat. I called you healthy.

Jo got spammed! Jo got spammed!

And you know, this wouldn't be the first time I got spammed. I even spammed myself once.

Oh wait...did I say that out loud? Crap.
On 8/16/2005 3:20 PM, Jolene said:: Heh. Again. :)

It's okay, ExI. Spamming is a normal part of life. Nothing to be ashamed of.

And I'm now waiting for the best "meat" and "spam" joke in context here. My money's on Dweeze....

I'm Jo's...

On 8/18/2005 3:35 PM, Immunegirl said:: Okay...so now this string of comments involves meat, spam and monkeys...there are SO many obvious jokes to be made. Anyone?

Glad you're back, Jo!
