could somebody get me my mumu and walking stick?!

the hell with the walking stick, you can get one of those electric scooters.

I always wonder when I see the 450 lb women on those at the grocery store. are they riding the scooter because they are too fat to walk? or are they too fat to walk because they ride around on a scooter instead of walking?

Irwindale is an "industrial community". Few actual homes and lots of businesses. Picture 10's of thousands of workers all needing lunch every day. The place is infested with fast food joints. And the actual population is quit small compared to the number of people who just work there.

There are liars, dam liars, and statistitians.

Don't worry Rip, you will get your dream when they finish socializing our health care system. The govt. will ban any food they percieve to be a health risk "for the good of the nation".

Fast food is part of the culture. Even those running for office hand it out.

We need to teach Americans moderation, that's the real problem.
