Okay, so like many people I strongly dislike any email message that ends with “If you don’t send this to 132 of your closest friends, a small colony of centipedes will develop arthritis”. However, every once in a while I get one that makes me smile… instead of depressing myself through realising how few people I know that I would actually send this to, I decided to just post it. If you want to read it, go for it. If not, no harm done.
In Pharmacology, all drugs have two names, a trade name and generic name.
For example, the trade name of Tylenol also has a generic name of
Acetaminophen. Aleve is also called Naproxen. Amoxil is also call
Amoxicillin and Advil is also called Ibuprofen.The FDA has been looking for a generic name for Viagra. After careful
consideration by a team of government experts, it recently announced that it
has settled on the generic name of Mycoxafloppin. Also considered were
Mycoxafailin, Mydixadrupin, Mydixarizin, Dixafix, and of course, Ibepokin.Pfizer Corp. announced today that Viagra will soon be available in liquid
form, and will be marketed by Pepsi Cola as a power beverage suitable for
use as a mixer. It will now be possible for a man to literally pour himself
a stiff one. Obviously we can no longer call this a soft drink, and it gives
new meaning to the names of "cocktails", "highballs" and just a good
old-fashioned "stiff drink". Pepsi will market the new concoction by the
name of: MOUNT & DO.Thought for the day: There is more money being spent on breast implants
and Viagra today than on Alzheimer's research. This means that by 2040,
there should be a large elderly population with perky boobs and huge
erections and absolutely no recollection of what to do with them.If you don't send this to five old friends right away there will be five
fewer people laughing in the world.
Good for a smile anyway.
:O)

*ROFL* This is so good I'll have to steal it and post it on my public blog!
Yes, definitely good for a laugh! Who comes up with these things…
LOL – thanks for sharing.
Hilarious!
*chuckle*
I'm wondering how I can send this one to my Dad without my Mom seeing it!!
Wow, one that doesn't say my life will be ruined for not sending it. I guess the original author actually had good intentions for once.
By all means, anyone who wants to borrow/steal it… I didn’t write it I was just lucky enough to get it sent to my inbox.Noel: Sorry to say that the original did have a “pass-this-along” message tagged to the end of it. However, and thankfully, it only said send this to five people you know who are getting old. :O)–steelie
Showed this to Mr. B who absolutely roared with laughter…. and even Mrs. B was in stitches 🙂

I can totally see the B’s laughing at this! I wish I could have seen them… Tell them the shards say “Hi”.I have other forwarded jokes and stories I’ve been hanging onto for a while, mostly because once upon a time I found them hilarious and didn’t want to delete them.–steelie
