You'd think so, wouldn't you? Donald Trump is a one-term LOSER |

I want the "something else". It seems such an obvious "yes" I can't wait to see what's next. Be bold and risk defeat, or be cautious and encourage it. |

It does seem obvious, right? Actually it is obvious. But all too many people seem to think the body ends at the neck. Donald Trump is a one-term LOSER |

I guess context matters. Taking "shots to the body", or indeed just "taking body shots", often implies just the torso region and expressly excludes head and limbs. But those are for the specific activities of boxing and drinking. And saying "nice body" to the girl you're flirting with often does not include such parts as limbs and head. So yeah, I guess context matters. However, from an anatomy standpoint, yeah, of course the brain is part of your body. As are toe nails and eye lashes, etc. Be bold and risk defeat, or be cautious and encourage it. |

Yes, it has a BBB (Blood Brain Barrier) but a great deal penetrates it anyway. Its highly susceptible to addiction. Its major neutrotransmitters are produced in gut microbes highly dependent upon diet and it is highly subject to hormones created elsewhere in the body and highly subject to parasites. |
