Obese workers

Before I retired I hardly ever took a sick day, I retired with enough
accrued sick leave to add about a half a year to my time in service for
computing my pension.

Just wondering who made you the Paul Revere of the obesity notification
process for this country? And what it is in your personality that makes you
think you MUST go and take time to post this to all of these disparate
newsgroups. If somebody is overweight, they know it. And, you know that is a
fact. So, why did you take time out of your day to post this stuff? Perhaps
it is you who needs to see a psychiatrist to find out why you have a
compulsion to do this sort of thing.

This is one more reason that the Raleigh News & Observer is considered
a low class rag sheet.

Shut up, fatass.

I think Pat was talking to the OP, who was posting the report to
numerous groups. I suppose that could be interpreted as "Paul
Revering".

So what part of the article do you disagree with [censored]? Or are you
saying that the article is too subjective (and, ergo, not objective
enough)?

I was talking to the guy who took so much time to write that insulting
tirade and then posted it to all of those different newsgroups.

FYI, if a lot of people have the OP in their kf or some servers delete
excessively crossposted [censored], many may not have any idea what you have
referred to.
