After an exhaustive review of the research literature, here’s the final
word on nutrition and health:
Japanese eat very little fat and suffer fewer heart attacks than us.
Mexicans eat a lot of fat and suffer fewer heart attacks than us.
Chinese drink very little red wine and suffer fewer heart attacks than us.
Italians drink excessive amounts of red wine and suffer fewer heart
attacks than us.
Germans drink beer and eat lots of sausages and fats and suffer fewer
heart attacks than us.
The French eat foie-gras, full fat cheese and drink red wine and suffer
fewer heart attacks than us
CONCLUSION: Eat and drink what you like. Speaking English is apparently
what kills you.

Well, damn. Parlez-Vous Français? Me neither. But, hey, I speak Americanish so I should be okay, huh?
It’s not the English language per se, it is the damned Protestant work ethic that is killing us. It’s also killing the Japanese, who have taken it to the max.
Thank- you for my morning laugh.
