Don't Get Overworked Up

Yes it's true, Houston dropped to number 2. Chicago has been declared Americas fattest city. Houston lost the top spot from last year. This is according to Men's Fitness magazine or something. They calculated how fit a city was by looking at how many fast food restaurants there were among other things.

Which just goes to prove my brother's theory. Newspapers will print anything. After last year's "news" came out our Mayor launched a fitness campaign led by Calvin Murphy. We talked about it, got mad about it, refuted it etc. Just like a number of years ago when Knoxville was named Americas ugliest city. Knoxville called a press conference to discuss it.

Know why Houston and now Chicago were named fattest cities by Men's Fitness magazine? Cause they are the number 2 and number 4 size cities in the US which means there are a lot of people who live there and buy magazines. They want to sell magazines. So the next time you hear of a city being named ugliest, or fattest, or most livable, or whatever...don't buy the magazine. It's a trick.
