Man walks across America to lose weight, gets 80,000 emails and million-dollar deals. He was even on Oprah, whatever that is.
Oprah is to America what the Delphi oracle was to ancient Greece.
Don’t know what book to read, Oprah will tell you.
Don’t know what movie to see, Oprah will tell you.
Don’t know what diet to follow, Oprah will tell you.
Although she rather lacks credibility with the latter.
I sent that guy an encouraging email last year sometime. Got a very nice response from the guy’s wife. Haven’t looked at the site for months. Last I looked he was still in California and having problems. Thanks for the reminder Loretta.

Delphi had virgin priestesses. I doubt Oprah is a virgin. But she is fat.

I was comparing Oprah to the oracle itself, making decisions for those who can’t think for themselves.
High Priest: “Great wall of prophecy, reveal to us God’s will that we may blindly obey.”
Priests: “Free us from thought and responsibility.”
High Priest: “We shall read things off you.”
Priests: “Then do them.”
High Priest: “Your words guide us.”
Priests: “We’re dumb.”
Maybe I should try it. I can’t seem to shed any of this post-nicotine addiction adipose I’ve added to my pos-terior. Would Forumosa support my endeavour? I could wear F.com T-shirts in ever shrinking sizes…
Step on up folks. How much would you pledge to see me circumnavigate the island in an effort to shed 30 kilos of unsightly me?
Seriously, if I can maintain my current income, I would do it.
You’d have to come up with some gimmick to top the guy who paddled around the island in the canoe a couple of years back (exclusively powered by Subway[TM]).
How about if I do it backwards?

If you did it backwards while wearing a panda suit, you might be on to something…
Do it in your birthday suit.
Americans have fatties crossing their country. Britain has the naked rambler.
Interestingly, both these guys are ex-marines. The American guy spent two years in Cornwall too.

Given my current girth, it may mean that my birthday lasts an entire month.

The building blocks of a really good yo’ mama joke are hiding in there somewhere, I just know it…
If you can walk the island backwards, naked, while reciting the entire script of Holy Grail as translated into Taiwanese, I’d pay to see, er, uh, for you to do that.
How does one say “Your mother smelt of elderberries” in Taiwanese?

She also happens to be the richest t.v personality in North America, an inspiration to black culture and women in general. She has tremendous influence and has overcome great obstacles in her own life.
So she’s plump (fat is the old Oprah 
)
And you?
