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.

A note about the squats today. I was going deep enough that the powerlifters in my gym all thought I had gotten stapled under the weight when I did 550. Todd (the gym owner) yelled out “spot him” and I had to say I was fine. That should give you an idea how deep these were. That’s why the max weight is only 550.
