Liquid Viagra

May 22, 2006 · 6 Comments

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.

In Malaysia, we have 24-hour eat-outs at our friendly neighbourhood mamak. In New York, we have 24-hour Apple shopping on Fifth Avenue. Completely mad. Pure genius.


The Apple Store, Fifth Avenue is open 24/7/365 and is located at 767 Fifth Avenue at 59th Street.

Check out the cool time lapses on the official page. Cool. View the photo gallery.

Goodbye, Jimmy!

Jimbo caught in an uncompromising position with Andy, resident photographer.

Last Friday was Jimbo’s last day as colleague. *Sniff* His talent, presence and general eccentricity will be sorely missed. Wish you well my dear friend. I know you will do great things at your new place of work. Question is now, who is gonna do the English-Bahasa-Chinese translations and copy? And by that I mean, creatively, unlike some people we know!

Sigh.

Anyways, see you at futsal, mate! (after my ankle heals, that is!)
