I just want to point out a couple of weight stories that have been in the media lately:
Rosie O'Donnell called out Kirstie Alley for lying about her weight. We all know that the "Cheers" alumna has shed some serious LBs over the past year. She looks better than she has in years because she is happy and healthy. The big-mouthed, Kmart loving - I mean hating -closet homosexual defender announced that there is no way that the Jenny Craig spokeswoman could weigh what she claims. To show off her elementary arithmatic skills, she determined that the 5'8" Kirstie is claiming that she is 145 pounds. She then pulled a 5'8" woman from the audience and asked her to tell all the world her weight to compare - 168 lbs. Cue Rosie's head shake and eye roll.
In other news...As everyone has heard, Nicole Richie was arrested on Monday morning. Her driver's license states that she is a solid one hundo. But, she was weighed in (boxer-style, I imagine) at 85 lbs. Now, everyone is yelling and bitching that she is trying to be heavier than she actually is.
If we are to look to the media for all that is good and true in this world, what are we supposed to think about this?

I love you Flip. But do you not work with PR people? ... Rather, one in particular?
i only weigh 45 pounds. when i'm in the water.
I think what we're supposed to think about this is that we should all hate Rosie O'Donnell. Check.
Even more interesting in the case of Nicole Richie is that when she was busted in '03, she was classified as white. This past arrest, she was classified as black. WTF?
