The FDA just approved an over the counter fat-fighting pill which is going to be named "alli"

http://www.cnn.com/2007/HEALTH/02/07/dietp.pill.ap/index.html

I know I need to shed a few more pounds, but Sheesh, that's a bit more of a hint than I need! I don't want to share a name with a pill that causes loose stools!


Fall goals:
1. Bike 40-50 miles a week
2. Prepare new garden bed for next season
3. Heal my back

Umm...this is totally the wrong thing to say, but in colloquial Finnish "allit" (plural of alli) means "bingo wings" (after a set of famous wings worn by Mrs Alli Paasikivi, wife of one of our former presidents)... and in standard usage it means a kind of duck.

But before you jam my foot even farther down my mouth... I was named Puck... so I've gotten my share of giggles Wink and I also have pretty impressive bingo wings!

Maybe you're so great at fighting fat they're naming it after you...
