thanks for posting the article, it could have just as well been written about me (and probably anyone with bipolar). when I was in college everyone loved my highs and I'm still paying for them. take care, judy

I love the Onion. Thanks for the link. I gotta say, though, that what is most "funny" about this article is that as I was reading this, I didn't find it that funny. I don't mean that I found it offensive or anything, which is what people often mean when they say it isn't funny. It didn't offend me at all. It is just that is sounds like it could be true, so most of the gags in it didn't work for me, even though, yes, some of them were clever. It just seemed kind of matter of fact to me. I think this says more about me than the article because I guess maybe I'm too familiar with it. The story a while back that they had about God being manic--that actually got me laughing.
But thanks for the link anyway!
