Thanks for checking out the show. I hope to not disappoint.

When my wife was in college, she took a drug that helped with migraines, which she suffered regularly. The drug, thats name eludes me right, worked well at curbing the migraines, but the side [...]
While quite disturbing, the video below is awesome. It captures the feeling of the body, independent of the brain, when subjected to a severe reduced calorie diet. And yeah, the chick is pretty hot except for the whole ravenous belly button thing.
