If you remember those 1970âs era âHang in There, Babyâ posters, the phrase âJust because youâre paranoid doesnât mean theyâre not out to get youâ -- of similar vintage -- will probably ring a bell. But while that treacly picture of a kitten hanging onto a rope is now a laughable bit of nostalgia, the observation about paranoia is more relevant than ever.

Accidental fame doesn't give you much of a heads-up. You can be minding your own business one minute, sweating up a storm while doing your job. The next minute, your face is being transmitted halfway across the world, like you're the next Elvis or something.

I heard a report on NPR a couple of weeks ago, and thought it was very interesting.  A study of a group hotel maids found that even though they lead active lives, get lots of exercise, their health isn't good. High blood pressure, overweight, body-mass index, the usual signs of a sedentary life.  They interviewed them, asking if they were active -- no. Did they get exercise? No. (The correct answer was yes to both.) So they formed two groups, with one group they did nothing, with the other they had a series of classes where they showed them how doing maid work compared to other forms of exercise.
