At some point you have to face reality.

It's hard to think of any effect or side effect of Prilosec that would translate into a recreational drug.

It's weird - I had to do that for OTC Prilosec too

That is weird. They never make me do that for OTC Prilosec, and when I buy it I'm all like, "Yeah man, I'm totally gonna take this Prilosec and then chug ten cups of coffee and a gallon of orange juice and a whole bunch of greasy food and wash it down with jalapenos and then hang out in anxiety-producing situations!"

Will, do, tiggy!

The tweakers have ruined it for everyone.

It's hard to think of any effect or side effect of Prilosec that would translate into a recreational drug.

The only thing I can think of was something I saw on an episode of House (so no telling how true to science it is) where taking a strong acid-reducer and eating things like raw milk cheese could let certain bacteria run rampant in you system. Emphasis on could not would.

It's War on Drugs Theatre, is what it is. Meth would have to be really REALLY expensive to make buying a couple dozen packages of blister packs of Sudafed and processing them cost-effective. Feh.

Well, if I ever get bored over the weekend, now I know what to do....

EXCLUSIVE: Britney Spears Strips Off Underwear in Porn Shop; Shoplifts Wig

Shortly before 1 a.m. on November 18, Britney Spears entered the X-rated Hustler Store in West Hollywood.

Spears loaded up on naughty skivvies and headed to the fitting rooms. But store employees "told her they don't allow people to try on underwear," a source at the scene says. "She was really upset."

Adds the source: "She looked out of it. There was nothing going on behind her eyes."

At that point, Spears threw a fit, and took off her own underwear before trying on a pair of boyshorts (with "Barely Legal' stitched across the rear end) in the middle of the store while 15 other customers looked on.

An eyewitness tells Us, "The employees kept saying 'Don't change out here!' She's just like, 'Well, I couldn't take them in the fitting room!' It was like dealing with a child."

Spears' tantrum only continued. "The staff told her she had to pay, and she rolled her eyes, but paid with a credit card," the source tells Us. As payback, "on her way out, she went up to a mannequin, snatched the wig off the head, and stole it!"

The drug industry and regulations and doctors: deeply weird. I'm becoming quite friendly with the staff at my preferred ER and we talk about drugs and administering them a lot, since that's all I come for, not even a diagnosis.

I get 6mg of dilaudid to start off with. Many nurses and doctors have never administered that much at once. The drug is packaged in 4mg ampoules. But they want to start me at 1 or 2mg. I think they need to "waste" the rest of the ampoule, even if I need more later.

Not sure how they charge me.
