Apparently it wasn't steroids. But it doesn't sound like he's denying it either. They don't have a test for HGH so I wonder what he took.
I swear, one of these times, you're gonna wake up in a coma.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

A totally valid defense IMHO, especially if you're depending on expert advice about health and healing and legality.
I'm surprised that more MLB players haven't been found blood doping.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Palin's popularity takes a nose dive
Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin isn't the nation's most popular governor anymore. In fact, a new poll shows that her popularity has fallen sharply from where it was before she ran for vice president, most likely because of the hits she's been taking in her home state recently.
In this latest survey, conducted by Hays Research Group, the governor scored a 54 percent positive rating, compared to a 41.6 percent negative rating. (The margin of error was plus or minus 4.9 percentage points.) That's down from just a month ago, when 60 percent of respondents told the pollster they viewed the governor favorably. And it's way down from a year ago, when Palin had an 86 percent positive rating.
I think it's because if you want to be an evil politician, you need at least some brains to remain popular.

Turns out Tolkien was more accurate than originally thought--homo floresiensis (aka, the hobbit) had really big feet! I wonder if they were hairy, too.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Dear god. This man is telling me to break into my 401K to pay for his services. I hate the hard sell.

“Not dead yet!”
There's really nothing more pitiful than a sulking dog. Especially after receiving a summer haircut.
With respect to Manny Ramirez, I have no pity. He's been on The List since his Cleveland days. I wasn't in the slightest bit sad to see him go.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

The medical museum turned out to be rather diverting. I got to mock the dominant discourse with my professor. Which is more fun than it sounds.
Klingon uses prefixes rather than suffixes, and instead of having six or seven of them, like most romance languages, it has 29
Reminds me of Welsh...
It's been a hard day. There will now be watching of TV shows that I've been saving for such a day.
