Out of the Blue

[Apr 11, 2012, 09:58 am ET] - Share - Viewing Comments

I'm suffering a little this morning with what seems to be a bit of hay fever (I almost wrote spring fever, but that's different), as my head is all clogged up. I generally don't have allergies, but I had a bout like this a few years ago, and even though tree pollen counts in the area have gone from high to moderate over the past week, I'm assuming that this is what's going on here, as this isn't a head cold, and I don't really have any other explanation. Achoo!

Should hospitals ban obese employees?

If it doesn't really affect their ability to do their job then no.

Although I think there is an amusing contradiction in our society where smokers are being treated like lepers but its socially acceptable to be fat. I realize not everyone has a choice in that but I daresay that's a minority of the sample. Biggie size those sodas I guess!
