Mexico City...Free Viagra!!

[Greenthorn]

I just got my Time magazine for the week and I found this quite interesting.

"In the name of happiness and a better quality of life Mayor Marcelo Ebrard is going to give out free erectile dysfunction pills to men over 70"

I find this both hilarious and ridiculous.  They are going to give away something like 100,000 pills and it would cost more than $4 million.

Thoughts?

Dude... I'm not all the way awake and haven't had any caffeine yet, so you almost got banned as a spammer, GT ... I'm glad I glanced at the poster first rather than going into auto-mode.

[Greenthorn]

*cracks up*

It's not spam...

It's right here next to me in my Time magazine...page 17, bottom right corner...in blue ;D

[Trieste]

Yes, but look at the thread title! I thought you were spam!

[Inkidu]

Whew dodged that bullet. Could you imagine a E without GT?

Still there are better uses for four million dollars.

[Avi]

A GT-less E?!  The horror! *protects the GT-ness*  And I love the fact that Time printed it in blue. XD 

[Trieste]

What's significant about blue? O_o

Viagra is blue!!

[Trieste]

Well. What else are they going to use $4 mil for ... ferreting out corruption?

Puh-lease.

[Caity]

I think it's a great way to spend the 4 million.  It's of the utmost importance that men over 70 be able to get erections.  After all, I'm sure the women of Mexico City don't need mammograms or birth control.

Or Premarin, so they don't bleed after five minutes while their husbands can go on for hours.

*cringes at the thought of looseing GT as spam*

4 million. . .I wish I had that kind of money. . .  I really think it's a big waste of money to spend on Viagra though. 

Also. . .I think that seeing blue is a side effect of the little blue pill. . .or is it a different color. . .hmmm. . .

[Oniya]

Seeing blue, no, but some people have experienced a 'decrease in hearing or vision'.

'You know, you'll go blind doing that...'
'What?'

[Trieste]

... gives new meaning to the healing purple pill, even if that one has nothing to do with erectile dysfunction. The catchphrase, man...
