Maybe he’s an apt symbol of America itself... going from a sturdy, moral, masculine culture of strength, dexterity and competition... to the current confused, perverted freak-show that the nation has become.

Here’s my problem....Why do we have to hear about his gender problems day after day....like it’s something good.

Why did Jenner whittle his nose ala MJ? He had a perfectly good nose in ‘76.

Don’t have to tell me twice. I think the cereal and the box are made out of the same dirt.

No surprise. He's been living in a pit of vipers for how long? It's really just disgusting. Pitiful. Nasty.

Maybe this is a warning that we should all stop eating Wheaties.

Or avoid eating it with Soy Milk or mBST Milk...

The secret is copious amounts of sugar.

Eventually, you can’t taste the Wheaties or the box.

Gallons of happy little phyto-estrogens.

What could possibly go wrong?

Yep - avoid eating all you mention.

Wheat is an inflammatory - arthritics (maybe all - ) should avoid; soy can be consumed only if organic or fermented; and mBST milk may have antibiotics, and ‘growth’ hormones.
It’s really too bad what has happened to our food.
But good business for Organic farmers.
Some organic foods have become less expensive, also.

This has been in the news all day, Daily Caller just published it, another sports story. Can one imagine, 2 professional lesbian African American basketball players.... yep, and it seems they have been arrested for assaulting each other the way I understand the story. Crazy.

so when we recite the Lord’s Prayer at church, we should say ‘give us this day our daily anti-inflammatory’...?

‘_______give us this day, our anti-inflammatory’…?

Or wherever one recites the Lord’s Prayer, perhaps one can say: ‘Give us this day, our daily rice bread - - : ^ ]

Many people’s bodies cannot tolerate wheat - and I’m betting the wheat of yesteryear was healthier.
White flour has sugars - - -

It is indeed ironic that back in 1976 Mad Magazine made a joke in on of their TV show spoofs, this time the Incredible Hulk. The joke was that the TV show changed the name of the iconic character from "Bruce" to "David" as the former was considered too feminine. The punchline came in the form of a TV announcer: "Jenner wins the Decathlon! BRUCE is the WORLD'S GREATEST ATHLETE!" I guess it's called REVERSE irony...
