It turns out that the eating of meat helped us evolve intelligence. Turns out, its hard to have both a big brain and the internal pluming to handle an all vegi diet.
So my love of a good New York strip is not an indication that I am an unevolved primitive. It shows advancing intelligence.

What Do They Know We Don't
Venezuelan bans Coke Zero citing mysterious "dangers to health." I'll admit fizzy sugar water doesn't strike me as being healthy, and fizzy sugar water that contains no calories is both unnatural and weird. I'll admit to never letting Coke Zero pass though my lips, but if Hugo Chavez knows something, I'd like him to share.

The Economy is Trying to Make Me Fat
Erza Klein, blogging from his new home at the Washington Post, has a chart that explains my continuing failure to become svelte. Basically, the cost of fresh fruits and vegetables keeps going up over time, while the price of beer and butter actually goes down. So see, vast economic forces are standing in the way of my transforming into the Hugh Jackman-as-Wolverine-type body that I know is my destiny.

Shoulda
Gone to Vegas this weekend. Yearly Kos. All the people I read getting together for parties and panel discussions. Wannabe President Mark Warner is offering a super party:
In particular, the conference represents a tremendous opportunity for Warner to introduce himself to the blogs -- most of the top political activist bloggers on the left plan to attend -- through his key-note luncheon speech on Saturday, and also through a little old-fashioned glad-handing. Warner will court the bloggers as though they were primary voters, with a free food and booze fest, billed as Blogosphere at Stratosphere, on Friday night. It promises to be quite a scene, according to the invite:
make sure you don't miss the open bar, the free food, and the free rides (they have crazy rollercoaster rides atop the 100+ floor Stratosphere)
I'm missing an open bar with a Presidential candidate! Just so you know when you give to Mark Waner Leadership PAC, know that the money is going to booze up Liberal Bloggers.
