Hi, jboy590. I donâ??t know how to respond to the news item whose link you posted. At the same time that Iâ??m sensitive to the feelings and rights of obese people, Iâ??m also pragmatic enough to be cognizant of the extra expenses involved in caring for their medical needs.

You indicated in your previous post that you had an interest in history. Especially since this website is related to sports, I thought you might be interested in a particular incident in my life that Iâ??d like to relate to you now.

Edit: I have just copied and pasted my Holocaust tale into a new topic because I felt that it deserved to be featured in its own topic. Of course, the original copy of this story that was featured in this post has been deleted. Please excuse the disruption.
