Filmmaker Michael Moore is trying to loose weight. Again. He was seen checking into the the Pritikin Longevity Center and Spa, described by the Daily Caller as a "luxury weight loss spa." At $4,500 a week, I guess that would be an accurate description. I don't know what problems Mr. Moore is having besides just weighing too much, but it's not hard to suspect high blood pressure, sleep apnea and diabetes and even arteriosclerosis as a possibility. Each one leads to attendant problems and really they are all linked back to being obese. Good think we haven't done the full Cuba thing on health care yet, eh, Mike?
This is not the first time he's done this I gather. Here in 2005. Here in 2007 Here in 2009. Well, he is nothing if not consistent, and I would suspect that after four rounds of this, Pritiken and its program is not treating whatever his problem is.
I wish him well, that's for sure, even if he is one annoying man and seems to lack any kind of self discipline. Yet, if help is what he needs, and he can afford it, I say go for it. At his present state, I think he thinks he hasn't too many years to go. That I can understand. Every time I have seen him I always think of this bit from the movie Animal House. Separated at birth from Flounder?
To his credit, he has made a lot of money being a celebrity socialist, so he can't be that stupid. He is richer than I am, that's for sure.
