Joys of wikipedia..

So i came home trying to do my portfolio when i suddenly thought of sumthing that Stacie said.. something about wearing wat ring in what finger means what..? so i thought mayb i'd look it up in Wiki..
well, i didnt exactly gain any info about that.. but u i love those hyperlink crap in those pages of wikipedia.. 
and so i stumbled across an article about the psychology behind human romance.. and then i stumbled again an article about the neuroscience behind love.. was kinda interesting.. knowing that 'true love' starts with sum Dopamine.. and sustained by some Oxytocin.. amazing stuff eh?
and the brain of a person in love actually behaves in a similar way as to a person suffering from obsessive compulsive dz.
So then... for the third time i stumbled across yet another article.. its called the "restless legs syndrome" or more dramatically known as Wittmaack-Ekbom's syndrome... so i read thru it and WHATAFARK???!! Did you know habitual leg shaking is a syndrome that is possibly caused by lack of sleep, low iron or even genetic inheritance? I mean.. WOW.. NIH actually went thru great lenghts to even set up criterias for ppl who shake their leg.. 
LoL.. and then i recall my elderlies telling me that back in the olden days prostitutes shake their legs as a sign to 'customers'... probably they werent paid well enough.. hence low income.. resulting in low iron...
you know la.. iron source from red meat very expensive...
