It's an obese world after all

Yesterday we went to Disneyland one last time before our passes expired. It was a great day. We have not been able to go all summer since our passes have been blacked out. I am sure many people have noticed that the "Its a Small World" ride is closed down until 2009. I just assumed they were repainting and freshening up a bit. No, apparently they have to re-dig the area where the water flows so the boats can pass through. I learned that people are so fat now that the boats were dragging the bottom of the canal and getting stuck. I know lots of research has been done about how our nation is becoming more obese. I think they can stop all the research. Doesn't re-digging the boat canal at Disneyland give us all the confirmation we need?
Oh wait, could giving an 8 month old a turkey leg lead to obesity? I guess I am part of the problem. I am off to the treadmill. It is not a small world after all. Do you think they will change the song during the ride?

okay, Ms. Hiliarious, good take on the sorry state of our lives. Although when I look around I see the moms of this generation, I see beautiful fit ladies, and active families. Good job!
