This thread appears to be gaining weight... Those who are hungry are probably jealous.

Maybe it's a typo?  Maybe it should read.  1 to 6 year olds Americans are hungry and all the time.  I have a nephew that just turned 7, and he is still hungry.  When he stays the night with me, he's like a one boy locus attack.  He rides BMX and plays football, but, holy cow.

Heh, the 1 out of 6 is probably wrong, but not as wrong as your they don;t exist comment.  But, since one cannot fix stupid, all I can do is make fun of you  :lol

 There is no doubt there are people going hungry in the US. To think otherwise is just silly. The thing is to say 1 in 6 is just laughable. Thus the puns. Not at hunger,at hyperbole.

I agree, but to say they don;t exist falls in the same category

Sure, but there's also an additional pretense that's worth a laugh - and that is that we should be somber about it.
Why not?
1. It doesn't solve the problem
2. The question of responsibility for the problem is, at best, an open one

I.e., I think this is an audience that has little use for a hairshirt w/r the matter and is reacting to any such suggestion with a certain level of mockery.
Some say revenge is a dish best served cold. I say it's usually best served hot, chunky, and foaming. Eventually, you will all die in my vengeance vomit firestorm.

billboards are that cheap?

i actually think they're significantly more expensive than that, if only based on the fact that there's one that is mounted in someone's back yard, near the shop i used to work at. this allows it to be seen on rt42......and rumor has it that the owning company pays them somewhere in the ballpark of $1,000/month to have it there.

No, not around here. Part of a marketing bid my company won a couple of years ago included 2 billboards, one large, one small. Grand total? $2200 per month I had to pay, about $1300/mo for the large one and $900 for the small one. This was on top of print media, radio, websites, etc. Unfortunately, this was about the time the market started heading south, and we sold very few homes, even with a massive marketing campaign. Fortunately, we sold a couple and were able to get out at the end of the contract and walk away only having lost about $25K total.

<---- looking forward to the day very very soon that he closes down shop and doesn't own a real estate company any more.  :rolleyes:

But anyway, I digress....

Time for lunch... I'm now 1 out of the 6, at least for the next few minutes....
