Totally off topic-- ordering from email spam

Here's what I've wondered. Now, charitably put, it's dubious at best to order your medication from Hong Kong or Russian sellers breaking about 20 national and international laws per email-- especially, when it involve you applying something to your genatilia, or inbibing 'generic Viagra' (along with its popular variations of V*iagra, V**iagra, V&!#$Gra* and 'Super Power Vi**&**&aAA**&SHKJA*gra. Endorsed by Seattle Slew'), or a pill that will simultanioiusly allow you to lose 80 pounds, gain 50 iq points, return your vision to 20/20, make better pancakes and is 100% Carb-Free.

My question here isn't why people order this stuff, but why people would choose to send these people their credit card information when ordering? Sometimes I'm scared to give my credit card info to Amazon or Barnes and Noble.

just because you can operate a computer doesn't mean you have any common sense.

My dad was a professor of chemcial and biomedical engineering. I onced asked him what kind of product would allow someone to lose 80 pounds in 80s days. Off the top of his head he said amputation and anthrax.

--with no drugs at all, and plenty of food. Just a hypothetical question, of course...

is that the "Atkins Diet" will solve all of America's problems, so no need to even discuss anything else. Farmers everywhere are throwing out their pasta seeds and buying viagra for their bulls.

News reports tonight are saying the Atkin's diet may have lead to Dr Atkin's premature death.

It's true.

It's fair to say that a diet that says you should replace fruits and vegatables with steaks and hogfat is not designed for your longterm well being.

Another way to put it is that when someone is 250 pounds overweight, rarely is the source of the problem that they are eating too many oranges and zuchinis.

...that recommends eating less carbohydrates. If you exercise a healthy amount your body will crave carbos - they are the fuel that provides a good percentage of the energy for adults who exercise a healthy amount, or to excess. On the other hand, Atkins probably works well for sportsbarscott and remotecontrolflickerscott.
