What?s a self-respecting slob to do? Turn to the ever-reliable red meat? Not likely, after the e.coli scare caused by the largest ever recall of ground beef in the nation?s history. And as if couch potatoes weren?t infuriated enough by the sight of FDA swat teams swarming over hamburger patties like flies on the proverbial, they were also treated to the disgustingly healthy sight of all those UPS workers being active again. Not to mention the trim Mir cosmonauts and their astronautical acrobatics. As if to rub it in, the very first space commercial released...
