20 Questions….(Part 6)
1) Why do people get so bent out of shape when going through airport security when they already know the routine?
2) Why are there so few “real friends” who tell you when you look like a fool or do something silly?
3) Why is your mother the only person who can call you fat and get away with it?
4) Why is so cool to be of mixed ethnicities these days?
5) When is the recession going to end?
6) Why is it so difficult to tell the difference between figure and bikini physiques now?
7) Did that lady on the Biggest Loser ever jump up on the plyometric box this week?
8) Despite all the research against no carb diets, why do people continue to use them?
9) Why do so many girls wear hair extensions now?
10) Why is the media wasting so much time talking about the “balloon boy?”
11) Why does it always rain the day after you wash your car?
12) Why do so many trainers take pride in making their clients throw up?
13) Why am I dreading day light savings time in 2 weeks?
14) Why do people think it is ok to send inappropriate messages online? (If you wouldn’t say it to someone’s face, then don’t say it online!! Stop hiding behind the dang computer!)
15) Why don’t companies have an internet sensitivity training programs to teach people how to act online?
16) Why do people weigh themselves everyday?
17) Why have “sleep” and “rest” been my favorite words for the last 2 weeks?

4) Not that people of different ethnicities are cooler than those who are pure bred (so to speak), but we like to see it because it shows that some people have finally gotten past racism.
9) Girl, chicks been wearing extensions since Early Egyptian times…and them Kardashians b*tches are just riding it out. LOL!
12) I didn’t necessarily take pride in making my throw up- it was just an indication that they were working hard and their body wasn’t used to it. Honestly, I feel bad for a second…then it’s kind of funny.

MAVERICK: I truly hope we are becoming more tolerant of other ethinicities. And the hair extensions were only hip with certain ethinic groups….but now EVERYONE is wearing them. I’m all for it!
It’s about time everyone else caught on!! LOL.

Hey Girl! #7, nope, she never made it.
October 18, 2009 at 1:35 pm
CHINA: LOL…..Ughhhhh! That really frustrated me watching that segment. She has probably jumped over puddles of water larger than that darn stool. It is amazing what your mind can and cannot will you to do! I thought that was so sad! Thanks for the update!
October 18, 2009 at 1:37 pm

October 18, 2009 at 5:09 pm
I don’t think we’ll ever know the answer to #11. The solution: don’t wash your car!
October 18, 2009 at 9:27 pm
BOGGY: Don’t worry, my friends say I’m not too far off from your suggestion. I HATE washing my car. And I always catch heat for not washing it enough. The longest I went was 6 months. LOL. But the inside is always spotless! It’s such a chore and I’d much rather spend the $5 on 2 packs of extra-lean turkey bacon! LOL.

2. because real friends always want first dibs on laughing at you..chances are they tried to tell you already and you just believed SO STRONG in that tomfoolery that they gave up and waited to help pick you up after….
6. you know what… i was gonna start asking that same question… i mean..what is the difference, really?? (pls remember that i’m new to all this..pretty please..kbye)
16. because everyone is subject to the "1 too many biscuits" theory

I didn’t want to comment on #4 to quickly because I think it is more then "Skin deep" For as long as there have been people living, we’ve focused on what makes us different and not what makes us the same. Rich or poor, thick or thin, black or white or brown or yellow or red(pick a color), male or female, we all have similar needs, we all want and thrive off the love from others, we all have the same basic instinct to servive, and we all have the freedom of choice. For too long we, as a people, have focused on the little things, like how successful we are, what we look like, sound like, if we can see or not, hear or not, whether we pee standing up or sitting down
. Now I bleed red, anyone else bleeding a different color then I am?
When we see a person of mixed ethnicity, it is a flag for all to see, it says that 2 people somewhere in this world understood what made them the same and rejoiced with what made them different. It is the beacon of hope that says the guy making 20 grand a year digging ditches could sit in the same pew at church as the Guy making 2 mill a year running a successful company and no one will think it odd, that a group of folks weighing from 100lbs to 300lbs can all still be friends and enjoy eachothers company, that differences can be respected and loved, not hated and rejected, and the next time you see a big white guy with cute black woman at his side, you won’t be thinking about how odd they look, rather you’ll be thinking about how great they look together.
I know I’ve waxed poetic on this one a bit, but it has been a hope for many years and still continues to this day that we will one day all be able respect one another, no matter how much we differ. Mixed ethnicity is just one step in that direction and that is what makes it cool. Tiger Woods probably helped

7. She actually did triumph over the step at home (they showed it during her reveal segment at the end) but I think her unwillingness to go beyond what was comfortable for her… was ultimately the reason she was sent home.
8. I’m puzzled about the no carb diet myself. I wish I could eat plenty of good complex carbs and believe me I’ve tried it…but there is NO question that a very low-no carb diet gets me leaner harder faster. Matybe it’s because I’m 5 10"…maybe it’s because I’m 43…dunno, gotta do what works for you!
12. What I dislike about the Biggest Loser…whille it might be necessary to get beyond mind controlling hurdles to push someone to that extreme…the yelling and so forth typical of Jillian is sometimes hard to take and watch..
October 22, 2009 at 10:40 pm
CSTUPEK: OMG! I’m glad she finally jumped on the flippin thing! LOL
. As for the carb thing, I tried it for 2 days just to see what others go through when doing it….HECK NAW!!!! Not for me. I’ll modify or reduce my carbs slightly, but not take ‘em out. But like you said, if it works go for it! As for Jillian’s yelling, I feel her frustration. It is a mind shift that these people have to adapt to and if her yelling get them there great! If not, then they should probably go to Bob. The HOLLERING traininer is certainly not for everyone, but I like her style.

CRZYHORSE: …….did you just read Martin Luther King Jr’s "I have a dream" speech? LOL. Well said my brutha!
October 22, 2009 at 11:18 pm

Variety is the "spice" of life and I and tolerate bland, but I’ll be lov’n me some spice
