Testing a few suits out today. I’ve lost enough weight that even my old ‘too tight’ suits are loose and give me almost nothing. Hopefully I am over these illnesses. I dropped from 335 to 325 in a night last week due to a crazy fever. I’ve never had visible muscle loss like this before. A little terrifying. Tonight wasn’t too bad though.

Real? Fake? Either way, It’s weird. The best part would have to be the Youtube comments.

"I'd rather have it and not need it than need it and not have it."

buchino:

Amongst other things, this could be said of both erections and Google Wave.

Aww, Mike blogged my quote about getting a random boner and not being embarrassed about it.
