A FOOD FIGHT OF SORTS has broken out within my family concerning the feeding habits of a distant relative. Some say his "habits" are merely those of a growing boy who forgot to stop growing upon reaching his majority. Others are shocked, SHOCKED!, with every passing meal and are suggesting an intervention.
Myself, I am unsure about the truth of the matter, but I put it to my readers to decide now that a family member has come up with "The Five Signs of Highly Hungry People."
1) The ability to move the cattle futures market on the CBOE "up limit" with one meal.My question is not whether an intervention should be held, but whether it should be held at The Sumo-Samoan Buffet or The Cheesecake Factory?

3) Decapitation of medium sized mammals on the front lawn with hand tools when "hungry".
4) Eating the undercooked flesh of a hapless member of the animal kingdom at a pig roast due to inability to wait until it was done, much to the horror of the other participants.
5) And finally, using the screen name "Cheesecake Man."
Good grief -- you're related to Michael Moore?

Probably wouldn't help, but at least you'd get to watch a Monty Python flic.
