I got the following in an email chain from a friend of mine...
(Whoever wrote this one deserves a HUGE pat on the back!)
Like a lot of folks in this Country, I have a job. I work, they pay me. I
pay my taxes and the government distributes my taxes as it sees fit. In

Being out of shape... sucks!!!
OK so I am fattest I have ever been... let's just say I'm about two of the high-school version of me... so having not gotten cast in a few shows, my family expressing serious concerns about my asthma and such... have motivated me to actually put myself first... time to deal with the proverbial elephant in the room...
