I've been drinking a glass of horse blood every morning for the last 34 years. But my penis still hasn't grown any larger...

I read it when I was quite young and became impressed with his theory of making people with animal qualities, people similar to cats who could see in the dark, people strong as lions, fast as leopards... He was a weird person, worked for FBI or the CIA.

She added: I had a feeling of being superhuman. I was not normal in my body. I had all of the emotions of a herbivore. I couldnt sleep and I felt a little bit like a horse." Interpretation, wishful thinking - bullshit. Anyone who had medical tests done in an hospital to check out the heart and who has been injected with chemicals knows it needs little (these chemicals) to make you feel a completely different person. (anxious, calm, nervous etc) Chemicals have a deep impact on our being (all drug users know this too), feelings, experiences of ourselves, so it's no wonder horse proteins make you feel changed, anything would. I like the experiment, the discussion it triggers, but I abhor the biased language used by these artists. In my opinion it doesn't take science serious, only uses it for something else.
