Where are you from?

Total dork that I am, I love anything dealing with data and stuff.  The BBC has a calculator that tells you where your height and weight fall on a global scale, based on information pulled together by a team of researchers at the London School of Hygeine.  Put in your information and you can see where you are compared to your national average, the global average, and which country you are most similar to based on your age group.  Fascenating!

Let it be known though that I do think BMI is a total crock - it was meant to assess populations, not individuals, and the fact that we are using it to gague our own personal health is just ridiculous.  That being said, it is interesting to look at the country rankings - the US is unsurprisingly among the highest, but it is topped by Micronesia, Trinidad and Tobago, Jamaica, Barbados, and surprisingly Kuwait?  I have a friend who lived in Kuwait for several years...I'll have to ask her about that.

Anyways it's fun nerdy times.  Here's the link:

Also I planned to have a recipe as my next post but I keep leaving the photos at home.  Wah wah wah... this is why I haven't blogged in like a week.  I keep meaning to post this damn recipe and then forgetting the photos.  So instead I will post random photos that have no point whatsoever, and then post the recipe in a couple of days.  Win win?
