I created an elixir that cures everything!  Say goodbye to balding, gout, headaches, pimples, high blood pressure and any heart conditions requiring open heart surgery..........

I was planning on getting a wooden wagon and a donkey to pull it.  I'll go from town to town and sell this amazing elixir.

I think I saw the commercial for that coin about a billion times during the Twilight Zone marathon yesterday.

Struck me as being in pretty poor taste also, not to mention taking advantage of the gullible/stupid. Wonder how many they've sold already....  :-\

That's why it disturbs me.  They *are* making money off the dead.

Sesame Street and Mr. Rogers?

True...but for comprehension's sake I went forward 2 or so decades since you, I and Howie are probably the only ones who can understand the reference

The history channel makes money off the dead. Graceland makes money off the dead. Ringo makes money off the dead.

Just say'n.


To me..... it's tastless...... much like broccoli. I will partake in neither. I prefer to remember 9/11 by trying to act like it's 9/12 everyday.
Gaspar, Melchior and Balthasar kicked me out of the band..... they said I didnt fit the image they were trying to project.
