Eating is Recreation
We all do it! We eat when we are not really hungry. Just had supper? Well then, how about a snack while watching TV? It seems that we just can\'t stop the habit of chewing and eating something, even when we may be feeling quite full. So ask yourself, how many calories does it take to watch NCIS, or American Idol? Don\'t know? Take a look at the package of chips, or cookies or popcorn you just ate and you will get an idea. Eating has become part of our recreation activities. Going to a hockey game, get a large coke and a hotdog. Read More ...

Twin Births Have Doubled!
- The number of twins born in the United States has doubled in the last three decades largely as a result of fertility treatments, with one in 30 infants born in 2009 a twin, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said on Wednesday. (Reuters) Wow, but that sounds like a real \"Feel Good\" story doesn\'t it. In fact, I saw this older gentleman the other day at Canadian Tire and he had the cutest twin boys following him along, dressed in their Christmas pajamas under their snow suits. I said to him how cute his grand-kids looked. And that got me a funny look. \"I\'m not their grandfather, I\'m their father\" he replied. Embarrassing or what. When I saw Marcelle and told her about this, she said she wasn\'t surprised. Not because of my stupidity but that this was very common due to fertility procedures that are now common place.

When it comes to a lack of ambition and no direction, today\'s youth seem to have a strangle hold on this issue. Although what we define as youth keeps changing. From the teenagers whose favorite saying is \"What ever\" to the young adults who are discovering that they are not entitled to a good living. We Like to Think That We Live In A World of Entitlement As each generation grows up, it seems that the baby boomers had it best of all. Their parents had survived not just the Great Depression but World War II and the Korean War. The economy started on the greatest boom in the history of the world. Back then a high school diploma was a guarantee of a good job. And then the baby boomers grew up and suddenly you needed a college degree to get those good jobs. And now the children of the baby boomers are growing up and the goal posts have once again been moved. There is no automatic job waiting for you just because you grew up in an affluent household.
