More random rants

1. Nike has designed athletic shoes specifically designed for Native Americans. Specifically, this shoe is for a foot that is wider than "average". However, this shoe will only be available only via tribal health departments on reservations. Hello? I need these shoes! My entire life has been spent with shoes that are too narrow and either my foot is squashed or it ends up extending past the side of the sole. At least now I know why.

2. Indiana ranks as one of the most depressed states in the union (Indianapolis Star, 11/28/07). I guess all my exercise, positive thinking, and light therapy (sitting next to windows as much as possible) didn't improve the statistic.

3. However, adult obesity has leveled off. Maybe my diet helped this statistic.

4. If you're going to exercise on a treadmill in a gym in the Indianapolis area while watching football, it would help your longevity even more if you didn't cheer when Peyton Manning throws an interception. The fact that you were sweating profusely minus the benefit of deodorant didn't make me feel any more charitable toward you.
