The good folks over in New Zealand (which, if I had my way, would be called The Netherlands) are expelling a South African chef from their country because, they say, he is too fat to live in the country. He weighs 136 kilograms or 286 pounds. And this, in a country with a 30 percent obesity rate, the third highest in the world. One more obese person, the government of New Zealand has decided, will, pardon the pun, tip the scale against the whole country. I am not sure what to make of this story but I look forward to hearing about it on Comedy Central. This story is so absurd that I can only imagine that the good folks over in New Zealand should be joking.
