You are SO RIGHT. Nothing, I say Nothing on network tv to watch. I
cant even tell you the last time I watched something that was NEW AND
GOOD on tv LOL. I cant wait till fall.
If there will be anything on.

more fat Americans these days than ever before, they've added that
weight of theirs to the cost of flying for everyone who isn't fat.
How? In 2000, airlines estimated they had to spend $275 million more
on fuel costs to be able to get these tubs of lard off the ground,
which of course affects both ticket prices and the bottom line. And as
the problem has only gotten worse, both fat-wise and gas price-wise
since 2000, it's believed that the cost is now twice that additional
amount for fuel, $550 million - or half-a-billion bucks just to fly fat
Americans around. We're not running out of oil, it's fat Americans
hogging it all up for themselves!
