To all you Joe Six-Packs out there who are tired of people tellin' ya what ya OUGHT to do and what ya SHOULD do, I've found your spokesman…Frank Sodolak.
It's time to eschew, er ignore, those people who tell us that craving something isn't enough justification to do it. I mean, as Frank likes to say: “You know? What is good for ya? It's your own body can tell what's good for ya.” Apparently Frank’s customers agree on one thing - battering bacon strips then deep frying them and serving with gravy is good for your body. Your poor…Poor body.
Supporting Frank is supporting all those good ol boys who say, “Hey, eating this, or drinking that may not be good for me but, maybe it IS good for me and all you nay-sayers out there are simply trying to take away my choices.”
I agree with Ol Frank’s assertion that no one should be able to keep him from serving up multiple rounds of deep-fried, battered, bacon and a side of gravy “sauce”. However, it’s his instance that “your own body can tell what’s good for [you]” that I find the most refreshing. Frank, I think most of America’s bodies, mine included, are telling us that our modern food and exercise habits are not “good for ya”.
Still, we have to defend the rights of Americans to royally screw our bodies over. It may be ugly, and it may be frightening, but it goes along with the territory. Call it natural selection, call it gluttony, or simply call it "Loving Freedom". We have to embrace our freedom to choose with all the best intentions and all the worst results. Either way, here’s to you Frank Sodolak, a scary, true, American.
