WILDER'S NOT ONE TO YOLK AROUND

When it comes to health, Douglas Wilder practices what he preaches.

When he came to Roanoke to lobby for his controversial health care proposals Wednesday, he devoured a mixed salad of fruit, chicken salad and asparagus.

But he skipped the deviled eggs. Are these his equivalent to George Bush's broccoli?

"Nope, I don't eat eggs at all. Not healthy," the governor said as he departed, patting his trim tummy and bragging, just a little, about the 170-pound weight he maintains.
