Here is to Rush getting back on the air. I wish him well. He may get fat again real soon though and that wouldn't be a bad thing. I am simply amazed of what he was able to accomplish while under such an addiction. Back pain is often a reason for such pill addictions. Limbaugh is hardly the only person to succumb to addiction to pain killers after suffering such pain.

I heard his last show. He said that the back operations were a failure and he needed the pain medication to get through the pain. Now he is off the meds, how does he deal with the pain? I think I'd rather take an addictive drug the rest of my life than live in chronic pain.
