I'm not a doctor. I can't help but notice that when you mention the things your Father eats too much of, the problem may very well be the high refined carbohydrate content, not the saturated fat. It could very well be that the combined pres

I like of Netflix that the kids can play it on the Wii while I watch something else on the laptop. Some newer big-screen TVs also come Netflix-ready these days. Does Hulu play on anything non-computer?
