Well it didn't disqualify me. They gave me a 1 year med card,but once I saw how Swift treated people I packed my bags and drove back home. Good luck to anybody that goes there.

I have always thought that the BMI was silly. This has been around for a number of years. According to the BMI I am overweight. I challenge anyone associated with a company that thinks I am overweight to follow me on a bikeride or a hike up Mt. Kilimanjaro which i did in the not so distant past. 20 years ago when I was in the service I was lifting weights quite a bit. I am 5ft 9 1/2 and weighed in at 185lbs. BMI said I was overweight but my bodyfat was about 8%. BMI doesn't take that into account.
