Calorie counting

by: Ross

Does anyone know how many calories are in a Vitamin Water? It is basically a billion.

I’ve become fat, which is utterly unacceptable, and I’ve decided to take some semi-proactive steps to rectify the situation. I’m not trying to get all up in a swivet over here. I just need to drop a couple pounds. Here is my plan:

  • Eat less food.

That is basically it. Specifically I am going to limit my calorie intake. This has led to me looking at how many calories are in the things I’d normally be consuming (110 calories for a pack of mayonaise!). Sometimes my mind is blown. The previously mentioned Vitamin Water has something like 250 calories in it, which is WAY more than my delicious Lean Cuisine lunches.

Seriously, delicious.

Here’s to not being a fatty!

New Hampshire Republican Party pulls support from Fox News debate

by: Ross

Here is the release:

NH REPUBLICAN PARTY WITHDRAWS AS FOX FORUM PARTNER

CONCORD - New Hampshire Republican Party Chairman Fergus Cullen releases the following statement regarding Sunday’s Republican forum on FOX:

“The first-in-the-nation New Hampshire primary serves a national purpose by giving all candidates an equal opportunity on a level playing field. Only in New Hampshire do lesser known, lesser funded underdogs have a fighting chance to establish themselves as national figures. Consistent with that tradition, we believe all recognized major candidates should have an equal opportunity to participate in pre-primary debates and forums.

“This principle applies to tonight’s debates on ABC as well as Sunday’s planned forum on FOX. The New Hampshire Republican Party believes Congressmen Ron Paul and Duncan Hunter should be included in the FOX forum on Sunday evening. Our mutual efforts to resolve this difference have failed.”

“While we understand that FOX News continues to move forward it is with regret, the New Hampshire Republican Party hereby withdraws as a partner in this forum.”

What do you think of this impeach Cheney business?

by: Ross

I don’t know if y’all have been following the whole “Impeach Cheney” train. It’s slowly been picking up steam (at least on my political radar).

You can read more about it over at Wexler Wants Hearings. There is even a petition(!) you can sign.

I dunno, what are your thoughts, dear internets?
