A Hoosier takes a trip and gets lucky:
What do you get a 288-pound man for his birthday? How about 288 pounds of jelly beans? His family didn't plan it that way, but when Mike Lively became the 1 millionth person to tour the Jelly Belly Center on his birthday Wednesday, he won his weight's worth of the sweet treats.
The 41-year-old Indiana man, who claims he weighs only 278 pounds, said he wasn't planning on sharing his windfall.
Let's see. What facility would I like to be the millionth visitor to and win my weight in something? Too many choices.

Or at LEAST....one of the U.S. Mints.

Am I the only one whose first thought upon hearing this was, "what a 288 (or 278) pound person needs is NOT 288 MORE pounds of sugar?" Sorry - our national obesity binge has made me lose my sense of humor over this kind of thing. Or maybe it's my personal obesity binge......
