Crema Cafe ($1.70): A real winner. We loved Crema Cafe for its silky deliciousness. It had that wonderful coffee flavor without the kick that turned us off from some of the other drinks.

...make my first cut much easier. I will green-light medical intervention on four criteria: cost, likelihood of success, years of life saved and a person's awesomeness.

And we can all agree that $6 million is a pretty good deal to make Lee Majors bionic again...
