“Cold, cold, cold
Cold, cold, cold
Freezing, it was freezing in that hotel
I had no money, my special friend was gone
The TV set was busted so she went along
I called room, room service,
I’m down here on my knees
A peach or a pear, or a coconut please,
But they was cold…”

Lowell George (Aries… hot, hot, hot)

This topic, the Mississippi Fat Ban has me stunned and mesmerized so I just keep writing. Excellent example of Saturn (restriction) in Virgo (diet) and Pluto in Capricorn (Shadow side of the government).

Yesterday I went to the gym and I was thinking about all this fat ban business, the prospect of seeing our rights dissolve beneath us and the possibility of leaving the country for a better life. I thought of this and then I thought of that and then I thought of it.

More on this story,

Sandy of Junk Food Science called Mayhall (who wrote the bill) and had this to say on her blog:

“I called lead author, Rep. Mayhall, and asked if this was serious legislation or tongue-in-cheek to make a point. He kindly took a moment to answer my question while the legislature was in session. He said that while, regrettably, he doesn’t believe his bill will pass, this is serious. He wrote it, he said, because of the “urgency of the obesity crisis and need for government action.” He hopes it will “call attention to the serious problem of obesity and what it is costing the Medicare system.”

I relayed this to the soldier.

Yep, we keep talking about this…

“Mirrors and the windows are all fogged over so I can’t see to back up,” the soldier said last night on the phone. “Have to have the window down to see and it’s cold. On the other hand I can smell the smell from the Burger King and it’s making my stomach growl.”

“Hope they let you in.”

“Oh yeah, the hog alarms are going to off soon as they see me. I’m going to say, I’m not a hog, I’m a rhinoceros!”

I laughed.

“Yeah, it’s just not a very fun time to be me right now.”

Continue reading The Mississippi Government’s Proposed Fat Ban Redux - Pluto in Capricorn, Saturn in Virgo

Regarding government (Saturn) controls on diet (Virgo), the soldier and I have been talking about this non-stop. As I mentioned in the comments of the last blog on this subject he told me this was going to happen about 6 months ago. I thought he was out of his mind but then this from HB-282:

(2) Any food establishment to which this section applies shall not be allowed to serve food to any person who is obese, based on criteria prescribed by the State Department of Health after consultation with the Mississippi Council on Obesity Prevention and Management established under Section 41-101-1 or its successor. The State Department of Health shall prepare written materials that describe and explain the criteria for determining whether a person is obese, and shall provide those materials to all food establishments to which this section applies…”

And don’t think for a minute this does not mean you. This is the soldier’s experience with government fat tests. I would estimate him at 10-12% body fat and that is now…
