07ba35d692539e27a38aba7e4b1cc85e.js?ver=1714151694 did you know “national kissing day” is on fri, july 6? i had never heard of the holiday until i read about it this past week. The holiday is actually celebrated in Britain. I think it’s just another way flower shops are trying to sell more flowers. I was pretty amused by the quotes in the news release: “Apart from being jolly good fun, kissing is good for us. Fact, for those with an athletic disposition it's worth remembering that an hour spent kissing burns off up [07ba35d692539e27a38aba7e4b1cc85e.js?ver=1714151694] to 600 calories, the same number as in six glasses of white wine or a medium bar of chocolate. ” I did not know that one hour of kissing could burn 600 calories, 07ba35d692539e27a38aba7e4b1cc85e.js?ver=1714151694 and to think all these years I’ve been trying to burn off those calories by running! Here’s where they go a bit too far with its promotion of the holiday when they state “Kissing can help alleviate headaches (really?), helps keep your teeth clean (yuck!) 07ba35d692539e27a38aba7e4b1cc85e.js?ver=1714151694, and gives us happy highs due to the oxytocin it causes our bodies to release. ” Okay, who wants to take the lead on making July 6 National Kissing Day here in the U. S. ? No headaches, white teeth and the opportunity to burn 600 calories or more…sorry, not me; I’m going to stick with Valentine’s Day and my one-hour runs for burning those calories! *********************** Ron Goch, Sign up for our free eNewsletter,
