An affliction that ails
men entering middle age, usually evidenced by a swollen head that was not present in their teens or twenties. As best can be determined, SHS is caused by a lifetime of a diet
high in animal fats and
high sodium intake.

later in "Boston
Legal" and "Pulp
Fiction," it was clear that both venerable actors suffered from Swollen Head Syndrome (SHS).
