For those of you who watch what you eat, here's the final word on nutrition and health, and it's a relief to know the truth after all those conflicting medical studies:

1. The Japanese eat very little fat and suffer fewer heart attacks than the Canadians, British or Americans.

2. The Mexicans eat a lot of fat and also suffer fewer heart attacks than the Canadians, British or Americans.

3. The Japanese drink very little red wine and suffer fewer heart attacks than the Canadians, British or Americans.

4. The Italians drink excessive amounts of red wine and also suffer fewer heart attacks than the Canadians, British or Americans.

5. The Germans drink a lot of beer and eat lots of sausages and fats and suffer fewer heart attacks than the Canadians, British or Americans.

6. Ukrainians drink a lot of vodka, eat a lot of perogies, cabbage rolls and suffer fewer heart attacks than the Canadians, British or Americans.

CONCLUSION: Eat and drink what you like. Apparently what kills you is speaking English.

I've read several of what you've put on the message board and I just love reading them. Since I'm new to this I'm not sure exactly how things work. I've written to a pp in US and I've been reading his case. I'm so sure he's not guilty and would like to find something to tell him not to give up hope. Can I please trouble you with some poems etc and say exactly that? Sorry if this request offend you, didn't mean it to be that way if that is the case. Thank you xx
