I went on a diet yesterday

But I didn't lose 50 lbs overnight.

I guess that make the diet a failure. That means that I should quit and start over eating.

That same analogy can be applied to people and their politics. Think about it.

2. So 1 night = 1 year. That means 365 nights = 365 years.

Yes, I get it now. Great analogy. :bounce:

6. WRONG! The analogy IS that you started your diet by going to an all-you-can-eat buffet

Edited on Tue Jan-26-10 08:27 AM by T Wolf

catered by your overweight friends.

And then told everyone how tough your diet was to maintain and you may need to ease back a bit.
