Your Anterior Cingulate Cortex is simply too active. While Frank's ACC blocks bad thoughts like Patrick Roy blocks hockey pucks, your (and your commenters) frazzled overactive ACC's allow all of the negative thoughts and emotions through to be processed by your frontal lobe and incorporated into your conscious mind.<br /><br />The good news is I think I can fix this for you in my garage with a few car batteries, a baby pool full of water, and a well placed clothes hanger to Brodmann's area 25. The jolt of energy should hyperstimulate the cells and tone your ACC down to the comfortable level Frank and most other conservatives enjoy. Well, at least thats what this 2005 study said happens.... <br /><br />http://www.cell.com/neuron/fulltext/S0896-6273(05)00156-X<br /><br />All we need now is an anesthesiologist willing to help......<br /><br />Regards,<br />PrecordialThumpAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4988839706387198339.post-75518034769910978382010-12-31T10:42:47.570-08:002010-12-31T10:42:47.570-08:00Amusing, PT, to bring up liberal economic policy, ...Amusing, PT, to bring up liberal economic policy, under the circumstances.Sid Schwabhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14182853083503404098noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4988839706387198339.post-43154367260451102212010-12-31T10:03:50.873-08:002010-12-31T10:03:50.873-08:00Dr. Sid,

(According to your theories, the conservatives amygdala may also sparkle every so slightly when hearing our presidents middle name, too.)<br /><br />Anyways, the point is who exactly decided that a conservative's amygdala is too large? Perhaps a liberals amygdala is, in fact, too small? <br /><br />Liberal's were the ones who thought it would be a good idea to follow the exact same path the led Japan into their "Lost Decade". If that doesn't make your amygdala fire, what will?<br /><br />Regards,<br />PrecordialThumpAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4988839706387198339.post-26124008616947005352010-12-30T11:55:52.655-08:002010-12-30T11:55:52.655-08:00Apologies Sam, I will judge Frank: He's a frig...Apologies Sam, I will judge Frank: He's a friggin moron, and he likes it that way, even more every time someone says it.
