If I listened to the advertising, Viagra would make me throw a football better (according to the commercial), or somehow give me the compulsion to drag a bathtub to the edge of a cliff.
I do appreciate the drug manufacturing companies when they tell me over the TV that I have a new disease, like leg twitch, that must be treated with medication.
Yes - I really like the "RLS - Restless Leg Syndrome" thing. Wow! Glad we mobilized the industry on that one! A new thing to obsess about. I'm really glad we got that one nailed, though. Good then, now, on to cancer!
Actually, I've always had my own cure for having restless legs in the middle of the night. Since those legs are so darn restless I let them carry me down to the fridge, where I can drown their restlessness in beer. Soon I plan to apply for a grant, then I'll put together my own cheesy commercials (ask your doctor if beer is right for you!), sponsor NASCAR teams, and then give lots of free samples to doctors while complaining about how much making beer costs...
