How many doctors did it take?

Guess which of these three things I learned yesterday?

1. over 25% of all white children in America are considered obese, more than 33% of Hispanic and African American children.
2. Obesity has obviously led to a number of health problems previously uncommon in children, such as high blood pressure and Type 2 diabetes.
3. Toys R Us does not sell jump ropes.

Seriously, the girl had to radio someone to find out if they sold jump ropes. When we finally found out, I said, "Are you kidding?" She looked at me like I was crazy and said, "No, we don't carry them."
