True, as to the end of his article; but nowadays the ills are more persistent (the world is going downhill) and the standard remedy is not "reeb" forward or backward, but 6 thousand drops of anything 80 proof and higher, to be repeated as necessary.

I don't know if you are serious but if there is a "Dave Berry ping" I would like to be on it.
Thank you very much.
To: nuconvert
Funny stuff!
Thanks nuconvert and Dave Barry.
I like the one for whatever that stiffener they are selling that advises you to call your docror if the thing is still a woody after four days.
Hmmmmm ... what's the doc gonna do? ;)

Article hits home /w me... I'm sitting here getting over what I think is a case of food poisoning. Threw up 6 times between 10 PM and 7:30 AM last night. Gack! Think I'll go dig up some Pepto.

Well, 6 thousand drops is about 6 ounces. After a few repetitions I, for one, would not need raisins (not that I would need them even before the repeated medication; besides, what are the raisins good for, besides chocking on?). IMHO, drinking straight is much better.

The bad news about the pepto is, it will cause you to retain the bug for longer because the bismuth will slow down your system. :(

"Reeb" is my medication of choice.If it's beer when it goes down, does that mean it's "reeb" when it comes back up?

When I was a kid I used to hate to go to the Dr. because he always want to give me a shot. Now I hate to go to the Dr. because he always wants to stick his finger up... well you know. It's a no win situation.
