Heartwarming.  :)  I'm sure you'll hear this one a lot of other places.  Yeah... they'll be beating your door down with this story.

Does this seem like the ultimate in laziness to anyone else?  I am sure it will help the folks too big to exercise, but... this is just waiting to be mass marketed.  I can see the infomercial now.  (Sigh).

Something I've been harping on for a while now is the pharmaceutical industry.  And I complain for a lot of reasons.  Not the least of which is the mass consumption of ADHD drugs in America (we consume 94% of such drugs produced world-wide) and the absolute flood of pain pills being abused in this country.  you don't hear about this, and that is what disturbs me most... The press gives Big Pharma the same pass they do on Obama.  I may do a full length blog on this soon, because what's going on here isnt' right.  the following link discussed the press' non-coverage of the links in coming off of certain Psychiatric medications and mass shootings.  They've talked guns and video games, but how about medications that alter brain chemistry?!?
