Getting older is not for sissies. I'm not a sissy, thank goodness. I'm a physical therapist, mom, daughter, sister, friend, and I am looking forward to "what's next?"

Historic Bill Passes!

Today Barack Obama will sign into legislation an historic bill that has been decades in the making:  The Hummus Reform Bill.  Beginning today you can no longer be denied hummus on the basis of Pea-existing conditions.  Seniors will be able to eat hummus on their donut holes. Soon all citizens of the US who cannot afford hummus will be eligible for subsidies to provide it for their families.  (Think Double Coupons!!!)

Republicans, however, are calling for the repeal of this bill.  They say that hummus is NOT a right for all Americans.  The GOP, or Garbanzo Opposing Party, is determined to undermine the new legislation and promise that Americans will "have their hamburger or chateaubriand, depending of course on their socioeconomic status, and eat it too" come Novemeber.

The Vegomatic Party says they are not afraid of a bunch of cholestrol-laden, gun-totin', Bible-thumpin', Viagra-needin', white-bread-eatin', fillibuster-usin', Limbaugh-lovin' hummuphobes.  So there!  Nya nya nya!

Stay tuned for more hummus-related developments throughout the week.  Reporting live from Chicago, aka Simone, heading out for the zoo!
