There are no fat lions in the pride. Lions eat a diet almost extensively of red meat. They do not get fat from this because they only eat enough to sustain themselves—no more, no less. So at least in the case of the lion it is not so much what they eat as it is how often and how much they eat. They may devour a carcass, but not eat again for two or three days. I find this pattern among most people who do not have a weight problem. Obviously, our metabolism is quite different from a predator as the lion.

They’ve been together for almost thirty years, and still my mother knows how to get my father to do what she wants. She really knows how to influence people.

Driving to Oroville, a five-hour inland trek from the Califo ia coast, I was hot, sweaty and creased to the car seat.
