BTW try not to take offense to too much I'm saying right now as this is prelim season and I have a linear algebra and biochemistry prelim next week to prepare for while sick, so I'm in a slightly annoyed mood

I'm not saying I'm intelligent, just more intelligent than you and that you are a dumbass. I've actually felt progressively dumber since I came here
It is hard to walk in an ace a math prelim when everyone else in the exam room got a 780 - 800 on their math portion of the SAT and 5 on all their AP math and science exams
The math section of the SAT is out of 800 points dipshit, and scoring I believe a 770 puts you in the top 1%
Hahaah
Definitely lilwing.
You will have to post a photo of you holding up your ACT results with your name clearly visible along with your driver's license in order for me to believe that.
This seems quite reasonable, Eco. FWIW, I also use a mix of pharma, herbs & natural (rest, diet & exercise) to keep my family healthy.
BTW, Lesa is correct. *ALL* pharma drugs have their roots in a natural product. Pharma's focus is on isolating active compounds. This is very limiting in some ways, as it ignores the potential for positive interactions b/t natural ingredients. Its also a lot harder to study & control for, which is why the whole herb industry is relatively behind.
But you are mistaken, Eco, if you think that natural herbs can't be packaged and advertised the same way pharma drugs are. They can, and are. Even more scary, is the fact that they aren't regulated by the FDA.
Look up ephedrine/ma-huang & weight loss, if you are curious. I believe the Baltimore Oriels pitcher Steve Belcher died from these a few years back.

Studied a paper a few weeks back that backed up the idea that patients with a window view facing a green garden required fewer as well as weaker painkilling drugs compared to those who's view was facing a solid brick wall.
Makes you wonder about the mind's influence on recovery, to find out whether its a matter of time and purely physical health that affects the rebuilding of cells and strength of the immune system, or whether the mental health has a solid impact on how the physical body performs.
And I guess this is where the notion of praying and religion might come in, say for example someone who genuinely believes that they will recover and remains optimistic might stand a better chance than someone who's more realistic and even cynical about it.

I cannot abide the kind of people who desperately stress their intelligence and insist over and over again that they're too good for college.
Bull. Shit.
You can't hack it.
Oh, and if you're going to mock DM for his appearance at least have the balls to post a pic of yourself first. I don't know what I hate more, idiots or cowards. You somehow manage to fit the bill for both.

I think DM is cute. He looks just like the kind of boy a bad girl wants to corrupt.
Can that guy even bend his arms? How does he jack himself off? And if he can reach his penis, wouldn't he just rip it off by mistake?

thats funny you should mention this herb because i use it, yes it is dangerous...very dangerous. People get get high from it like a real backstreet drug in china. If taken in the wrong dose. It was American companies that used too much of it in their weight loss products. I've actually used it to get rid of my hayfever that i used to suffer terribly (i was really miserable)for years and i used a very very tiny dose and it works!
btw none of the drugs recommended by my doctor thoughout the years ever truly worked the same way as ephedrine/ma-huang and infact the precription and over the counter drugs made me dizzy sometimes and mostly exhausted. I had days i couldn't step foot outside even with the drugs my doc told me to get. i'm glad i went the alternative route because i feel normal again.

The point, Eco, is that even non-pharma natural, herbal compounds can be very dangerous.
And they, unlike pharma drugs, are not regulated by the FDA.
I'm glad you agree.thats funny you should mention this herb because i use it, yes it is dangerous...very dangerous.
