Twinkies will have a reprieve either way, and will be available once again. Now, I feel like a fool going out and hunting them. I ate two Zingers last night and measured my sugar. It went from 124 to 176 in an hour. That's it for me and these "treats" as I'm fighting to keep it down, not trying to raise it. I'm still trying to figure out how to get a gadget to work for twitter here.

Nostalgic. I like your wonderings. I don't watch the news, or much tv, so I'm never caught up on anything - your post helped!

Perhaps I should shorten my blogs. lol I'm so fed up with hearing about how everyone is losing or gaining weight, both in the world of entertainment and in real life. A person is what a person is. If they want to lose, they will. If they want to gain, they will. People are so judgmental these days that it really drives me crazy! There have been all sizes of people as long as I can remember. It's really no big deal! Now, the Twinkie shortage and demise ... that's news! lol Many Thanks!Richard Rumplehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15478732756685966429noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8431865736422930321.post-25742752806213380052012-11-18T20:38:06.440-05:002012-11-18T20:38:06.440-05:00Rich, I think you have like 12 blog posts in one h...Rich, I think you have like 12 blog posts in one here! These are all great points that I will now wonder about, too. :) The one that stands out to me is the part about past their prime celebrities who are all over the news. It kills me that people consider a celebrity's weight loss news, with everything else going on in the world. Great post, Rich!

Probably a nice white. lol With the demise of Twinkies, many believe the world has already ended, although I understand diet specialists are celebrating the world over.

Twinkies for one.. We get them here as well, well - I guess now we won't be. Haven't had them in a few years, but on the odd occasion I'd buy a box and Geoff and I would devour them in a weekend. No more of that. Must say - thought I'd be hearing a lot more hype about the "world ending" right about now. Haven't put too much thought into it, but selfishly, I hope it doesn't. And then another part of me hopes it does - or that something drastic changes for the good. I guess we won't have long to find out! Just another month of wondering.... Great post! :)Melanie Chisnallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13185780861280344366noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8431865736422930321.post-76194302398375428432012-11-18T01:52:15.753-05:002012-11-18T01:52:15.753-05:00Steve - Good to meet you!

I just put a curb to help people stumble here, so that might indicate it's working! lol Seriously, glad you got here and I'm humbled at your kind words. It sounds like you, too, are a masochist. I hadn't had a Twinkie in years, but when they were proclaimed an extinct creature, suddenly found myself filled with desire of the sugary treat. Oh well, I'll get over it. If I really get desperate, I'll just buy the package on Ebay for $200,00 and have to explain to my wife why our checking account is overdrawn by the same amount. : ) Glad you dropped in!

Also, I can't help you with your Twinkie problem, but I have realatives in the tri-state area that can hook you up with some Tastycakes.

(If some of us aren't there already. : ) Andy Rooney was a master at this type of humor. I'd completely forgotten all about him. He's truly missed.

Don't we have more important things to think about? Like what sugary, packed with preservatives snack we can eat when the Twinkies run out?<br />Glad you found something to write. :) It reminded me a little of the 60 Minutes guy who ripped things up at the end of the show...Rooney was it? amy janehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10171551539110361661noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8431865736422930321.post-10645602590638399182012-11-17T17:20:21.022-05:002012-11-17T17:20:21.022-05:00Rosyel - I wonder how I ever got loyal readers lik...Rosyel - I wonder how I ever got loyal readers like yourself?

(Yes, I've got my first "stalker" that constantly wants to chat anytime I appear. I'm really innocent on this one!). Just some quick thoughts I jotted down. Btw, can you spare a Twinkie?

So, a quick "sit down" and write session while looking at the news headlines on AOL provides questions for those of us with a little sanity left. lol Many thanks!Richard Rumplehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15478732756685966429noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8431865736422930321.post-6413009224011906002012-11-17T16:44:35.373-05:002012-11-17T16:44:35.373-05:00Richard, this sounds like my kids, because I hear ...Richard, this sounds like my kids, because I hear "I wonder" all day for all sorts of things.
