I finally understand vegetarianism, sorta

[goodolmike]

I was on a health kick a while ago. Over the course of a few years, I lost 70 pounds. I've packed a lot of that back on over the past few years.

I used to eat at McDonalds every other day, sometimes twice. But during one of my diets, I stopped going there and haven't eaten there for about five years.

I'm on a road trip to visit family, and we almost had breakfast at McDonalds. Ultimately I talked the family out of it. But it wasn't for health reasons, and it wasn't because I wanted to stick it to McDonalds. I just have a long streak of not eating there, and I kind like that.

I haven't eaten at McDonalds in 22 years. The last red meat I had was a Big Mac in about 1988. :-)

The last red meat you had was at McDonald's? No wonder you went veggie.

HA! there were so many other reasons for going veggie. I had actually been mostly veggie before that, but I occasionally "slipped" and wanted a BigMac; not a steak, or a burger from anywhere else, or hot dogs, or anything else– just a Big Mac. go figure.

Also, stop flaunting your Zune at me with your avatar. That kind of anti-social behavior is not going to be tolerated, Mister!
