fat people

People here are fatter than people in the CR. It's actually really weird. And i'm about to go to Houston, Kingdom of the Fatties.That reminds me of a caption in 'America (The Book)' It says that in the future, since diets are so expenseive, we'll just give up and change our notions of beauty. It shows one of those pictures of a woman from the neck down, prominently displaying her obese ass. The caption reads 'In the future you'll want to 'tap' this'. Just hysterical stuff. Love that book. Question of international etiquette (sp?) What's the deal with traditional costumes? Why do only certain family members wear them? I am looking at some sort of Indian family down below. The man is in a ratty t-shirt and jeans, kids dressed normally. The woman is wearing star-covered pajamas and a body-length blue and orange scarf. What the hell?
