"Too Big to fail." Oft heard phrase about banks...

    Newer Older

    Fat man in Split, Croatia watches tourist pass by. Maybe he is a tourist, too. I don't know. What once was a six pack, is now a keg. I know from first hand experience exactly what it means to loose the six pack.

    People often think Americans are fat but in Croatia, I saw a lot of fat non-Americans.

    The fat guy reminds me of the phrase I often heard about the large financial institutions and American auto companies: 'They're too big to fail." I happen to think "they're too big to survive." Government has broken capitalism by protecting the failures. Shame on them. The reality was they they're "too big to JAIL."

      why would he do sit-ups to get a smaller gut?

      he should start running, or eat better :)

      I am guessing that the center of mass is its belly bottom.

      Although, i think he no longer have moment of inertia..
