Best medical study EVER!

Scientists in the UK are seeking 150 women to eat chocolate every day for a year in the cause of medical research.

The trial, at the University of East Anglia in Norwich, eastern England, will test whether a natural compound found in cocoa, the main ingredient of chocolate, could cut the risk of heart disease among women with diabetes.

See! He's got a bunch of really good ones.

I hope someone at the TDS or TCR saw this. OMG.

God I hope so, because I'm not nearly as witty as either of those men or their writing staffs, but all I could do was gape.

Also, it should be noted that just before showing pictures of the "debaters" the host was cracking on his intern for an exchange that went something like this.

Dumbass Host: Hey it would be really interesting if we could get some video of the Lincoln Douglas debate. That would be really neat. snicker snicker.
Poor Intern:...I'll get right on that.
Dumbass host: Hah! He thinks they had video back then!

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

This weekend: laundry, maybe bike ride, work on thesis, cook stuff for the rest of the week. Possibly tutoring.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

I had a completely exhausting therapy session and all I want to do is crawl into bed. But I have another 5 hours of work. And lots of work to do. I'm just so unglued. How to reglue?
