Pharmacological Trivia !
Jun 12^th, 2009 at 7:40pm

Just look at all of the over-the-counter choices we would have had if we lived in the late 19th / early 20th centuries!

Bayer Heroin, considered a "non-addictive" substitute for morphine.

Coca Wine, recommended for sleeplessness and despondency.

Another brand of coca wine, Mariani, endorsed by none other than Pope Leo XIII.

Maltine, suggested that you drink a full glass after every meal. Children should have only a half-glass.

“What rap did that was impressive was to show there are so many tone-deaf people out there,” he says. “All they need is a drum beat and somebody yelling over it and they’re happy. There’s an enormous market for people who can’t tell one note from another.” - Keef
