Well, we already know that McGwire used andro. I'm not overly familiar with it though...is it actually considered a steroid? I don't remember.

Andro is a naturally occurring hormone in males and females. It's somewhat a precursor to testosterone. I looked into it a few years back when I was still interested in putting on some mass. You can get it at most health stores (GNC and the like) because it's considered a dietary supplement (hey -- it's found naturally in Scottish pines, so it can't be <i>that</i> bad, right?). I decided against it when I learned that it would have no effect on younger males because their bodies produce more than enough testosterone. Androstenedione is better for guys closer to mid-30s.

Bush will be furious if Major League Baseball strikes.

His team has already taken a beating in the press, losing Enron Field and all that, which must have pissed him off.

If the team you're talking about is the Republican Party, then that's funny. If the team you're talking about is the (L)Astros, then you're incorrect. His team was the Rangers.
