Of the singletons, 61 percent of them have never said "I do." Twenty-four percent are divorced and 15 percent are widowed.

More than half of the unmarried Americans are women. And for every 100 single women, there are 88 unmarried men available

So why are you still single?  Sex with a person is better than sex with a keyboard.  Hell, you live in NYC.  You could accidently **** someone on the subway.

Numbers posted by the National Center for Health Statistics show that more than 34 percent of Americans are obese, compared to 32.7 percent who are overweight. It said just under 6 percent are "extremely" obese.

Now that this thread exists, I can tell you about Elaine Morgan's wonderful book, The Descent of Woman.

Finally, between one set of covers, the fundamental cause of the human predicament is explained, the staggering contradiction at the heart of the human condition.
