Running on Todd Power!

Miles-per-gallon in car sales have been largely amplified since the surge in gas prices this summer. Ever wonder how many mile-per-gallon you get? Not your car...you!  I found an online quiz that estimates how far you would be able to walk on one gallon of liquid food before you pass out.
Here's my HUMAN miles-per-gallon...

Bonus for Wall Street?

What would happen if you did a really bad job at work?  REALLY bad... like you need a $700 Billion bailout?  You probably wouldn't have a job, let alone a bonus, right?  That's exactly what 2/3's of the workers on Wall Street are expecting.  A bonus. 

The average bonus for those on Wall Street?  $262,000!  Some bonuses are in the 7 figure range.  Seems a little crazy given the recent financial turmoil.  Maybe I just don't see it.  Do you see it?

School Lunch Lacking

If you did your learning at a public school, you probably hurled at some point in time after eating the mystery meat served at the school cafeteria.

Recently, two Louisiana parishes sampled were the only school districts out of the 20 surveyed in the U.S. that failed!  Caddo Parish was one of those surveyed that received an "F" for the lunch served to its pupils.   According to the survey, it was mainly because Caddo schools didn't meet the standards on fat content, food choice, and lack of food group balance.

A couple of weeks ago I ate a tray lunch with my son Trale at his school.   The boneless chicken wings were a little dry, but it wasn't so bad.   It had great veggies, fruit, and milk too.

When I was in school, I remember the brocoli was brown and my favorite day was pizza day.   I always got strange looks when I ate the salisbury steak.

What was your favorite food you -would not- eat at school?
