Let’s have a beer to celebrate.

Atlanta fell one notch in the American College of Sports Medicine’s American Fitness Index, but it remains well above average.

The annual study, which evaluates the 50 most populous city areas to determine the healthiest and fittest metro areas in the United States, ranked Atlanta 16th with a core of 57.7 out of 100 for 2010. It was the top ranked city in the Southeast.

Being the least unfit metro city in the Southeast US seems like a dubious distinction.

You don’t like the “Hey, we ain’t as fat as Charlotte” bumper stickers?

Atlanta’s tentacles stretch far into the state for survival and mostly around everyone else wallet and testicles.

I mean give me a friggen break. Run out of water and the idea is to do just what they have always done, take it from somewhere else via the gold dome. Nice socialist dream city there just like those other ones ran by liberals.

You’re kidding right?

I was guessing “the medication wore off.”
