Don't Be Bill, Be Healthy!

Now, I know this may seem like another person pounding the importance of health into the unresponsive brains of the ever heftier American population, but let's talk about the pros of eating right and regular exercise.  What brought this to my mind, is the apparent media explosion covering our former president, Bill Clinton's, recent heart surgery.

When reading these headlines and seeing photos of Bill everywhere, I was overcome with a feeling of nostalgia.  It brought me back to the times when Bill was reigning America, when I was just a child.  One memory that I recalled, was reading this children's book of fun facts about all of the presidents and the favorite meal of every president was listed.   I don't recall exactly what the book said about Bill, but it was something along these lines, "President Clinton loves good fast food, when given the choice between a salad and a burger with fries and all of the trimmings, President Clinton can't resist the burger and fries."   Hmmmm,  does that seem like there might be a connection there?  Maybe, that wasn't the right choice and that shit was toxic and it fucked up your arteries Bill.   Hey, it's okay though, because after eight years, you're back in the lime light rather than your wife.    Enjoy your fast fame.

The bottom line here, we need to start eating better.  It's not that there is no awareness.  Believe me, we've heard that we need to eat our veggies for the past ten generations.   I challenge everyone out there to eat a vegetable or fruit the next time you feel like poisoning your body with one of our county's many, infamous, grease-packed,  and fast food options.   I also challenge you to do some physical exercise, not a whole workout, just some.  It can be just ten push ups whenever you find yourself with a free minute during the day.  This isn't hard people.  Trust me, the benefits of leading a healthy lifestyle far outweigh any hassle it causes.    Stay classy and stay fit America.
