OT: Fremont: The best city for men's health

Just saw it on the news this morning... Men's Health magazine claims that Fremont is the #1 city for men's health in America. SF is #10 and SJ is #15. Who would have thought Fremont of all places, even the mayor was suprised!

I call BS.

With the distinct lack of hawtness around here I would have to say Fremont is NOT the best place for men health.

It was funny, ktvu was going around interviewing a couple of people, asking them what they thought about Fremont being the #1 men's health city. They had the "ummm okay, I guess so" tone in their voice and look on their face while they said some bs about "yeah, I see people walking around the lake."

I'm not in Fremont that often, all I know is that MC Hammer used to live there (I remember as a kid my dad would tell me how the MC Hammer brigade would roll down the street in their S classes in front his work with their stereos thumpin on the way to their studio,) Fry's is there, and there are some asain markets. (sorry for the Fremont lovers)

No... Fremont is one of the oldest cities in the bay area... You're thinking of Milpitas... Or as I like to call it... Fremont's garbage.

So that's how you get em 2 buy Rotas and other stuff. Invite em over 4 beers, get em drunk, have them max out their credit cards and wake up wondering wtf happened.
