I had a case of the "explosive diarrhea" for just about the whole month, and am still trying to get rid of it. I recorded this episode yesterday and last night I was up all night running to the bathroom, so since I was up I just went ahead and edited the episode. Also had leg cramps so bad I had to have my wife help me out of bed yesterday. I get lower leg cramps from time to time, but never upper ones and none so bad that I couldn't move my knee or have it feel like I'm dislocating my hip! Am currently uploading this episode between trips to the bathroom...again. Ugh, I'm hoping all this is gone by August..!
