I saw a “health IV” facility last month when my husband and I were eating out; it was in the same building as the restaurant. Prices started at $150 for hydration and vitamins, and went up to $500 for “anti-hangover” or “jet-lag recovery” specials.

I guess you’ll never be poor underestimating the common sense of the public.

Mostly just fluids, I guess. It’s probably not much better for “hydration” than drinking water, or water mixed with Gatorade.

Never, ever talk to the police, and never, ever post pictures, or anything, on the interwebs with your real name..

What the F is the problem? Many a football training table is piled high with all you can eat beef, pasta, and pie. The guy wasn't taking drugs, just nutrition and hydration. Darn near everyone in every hospital is hooked to a drip.

The problem is that there are rules, and he broke a rule. Whether the rules make sense is a separate question.

Social media provides you the mechanism for self destruction.

If they had had social media in 1944, Anne Frank's family might have posted: "Oy! So much matzoh! If you need a little bit for your seder, come to Prinsengracht building. But don't tell the Gestapo! We're hiding!"

I’ve heard this is big business in Vegas. The young gentleman will get dripped after the first night of the bachelor party and are quickly recovered and ready to go for some more fun. Or young ladies and there bachelorette party.

Ryan Lochte suspended after posting photo of himself receiving improper IV drip

This is easily rectified by Ryan identifying as a Trans Womyn, notifying the Officials that the drip was medical nutrition support for her Transition, taking the top spot on the Women's Team, and suing the shirts of the backs of the CIS Bigot officials.

I was at a party once in my youth when a less then legal substance was on the table and this girl whips out her Polaroid to takes some pics. I freaked. Sure am glad they didn’t have social media back then.

So competition is no longer who is naturally best, but who has done the best job of artificially boosting their fitness, within the “regulation permitted limits”.

I wonder what some of the top scoring Olympic atheletes of the past 20,30 years would have scored, if the same individuals were competing “raw” as Olympic athelete (besides the Soviets, East Germans and Chinese) did long ago, like the 1930s maybe. Would they have been as “good” then as they were recorded as now?
