Perhaps this motivated the kidnapping: "More and more foreigners come
into our country though Switzerland does not have adequate means to
handle and limit immigration. Zottel is also opposed to this excessive
immigration and therefore supports the UDC initiative "Against Massive
Immigration." http://www.zottel-2011.ch/f/

Much better story and link than yours. :)~

Please do try not to become one-dimensional in response to someone
else's singularity obsession. Thanks.

Man, it would take me forever to eat a ton of feed! Not sure it's
worth the effort. Besides, I'm hovering around 11% fat, if it
decreased by 34% wouldn't that mean I'd have -23% fat? That can't be
healthy.

Welcome to the world of masters fatties. The last time you referenced
your fattitude, you said it was 8%.

I know. I am about five pounds heavier, and I'm also using a
different digital scale. Regardless, I do feel like a fat shit. ;(
