[Labyrinthos]

I am a cop, I can tell you that a scroat with a 100 pill a day habit would be barely coherent. There are those that will say that given the temperment of the Limbaugh show, there is already evidence of incoherency. But I digress...

I agree in that he was not doing 100 pills a day nor was he dealing. But I also know addicts very well, and if they have the money, they will always have a stash in case the pipeline dries up. (My ex-mother-in-law always had two months worth of canned goods in the pantry "just in case.") Also, many Vicodin/Oxyi addicts grind the pills and snort the dust to kill the time releasors. The conversion ration is not the same as the pills. In other words, one might use two to three times as much in powder form as in pill form.

I don't believe the maid. But for the sake of argument, let's say that Rush popped all these pills.

The number of pills he was alledged to have taken per day, should have rendered him either comatose or dead. Yet he was quick thinking and eloquent enough to speak in front of 20 million listeners for three hours a day. He kept up public appearances, went golfing, drove a car, etc.

How the heck did he pull it off?
