Ok so it's Sunday night at about 11 PM here with a low end PC and little to do besides either sleep or post random things on the forums! So, I've decided to pick a random news segment on CNN.com and discuss it here! If it's sucessful, I'll do it again in similar situations :p

A study done on viagra shows that the popular male enhancement drug has the ability to prevent and even treat enlarged hearts caused by high blood pressure. The findings were discovered while observing the effects of viagra in mice. The drug blocked and even reversed some of the heart enlargement in mice with high blood pressure.

Now, I think it would be interesting so see how mice react to erectile disfunction drugs. Mice go incredibly unnoticed for their issues and I think it is an important step to provide these kind of services to mice who experience this type of condition. I bet those mice are incredibly happy right now :D

Hmmm, I dunno... I picture them confused in their cages, teetering around on their new-found fifth leg, digging trenches in the cage bedding wherever they go. I hope they're getting good counseling along with the Viagra doses... sage advice like "Stuart, get off your sister!!"

They should feed them some Ecstasy at the same time, and then fill the feeding bottles with Red Bull. :eek:
