Viagra commercial can’t handle the heat
A Viagra commercial is meeting stiff resistance online from viewers too distracted by a technical inaccuracy to pay attention to the ad’s uplifting message. The commercial even made it into a syndicated auto repair column this week in newspapers across the country. The problem is with the way the actor in the Viagra commercial handles his 1969 Chevrolet Camaro when it begins overheating.
The commercial starts with a middle-aged man driving a polished muscle car on a lonely highway just as steam starts coming from under the hood. He pulls into a dusty roadside service station, and the narrator says, “You’re at the age where you don’t get thrown by curveballs. This is the age of knowing how to get things done.”
Viagra sold from grocery store
Viagra was illegally sold from a grocery store until the store’s owner Vasant K. Patel, was found out.
Patel has now been sentenced to two years of probation and ordered to pay $993 after pleading guilty to attempted possession of a controlled substance with the intent to deliver. He was arrested in November 2009 after a search was carried out on his Shop-Rite store, and bags containing the popular impotence treatment Viagra were discovered. His store did not have a license to sell the drug, and as a result his license to sell liquor was revoked to.
Levitra Survey Smashes Stereotypes
A survey carried out by Bayer, makers of erectile dysfunction drug Levitra, has smashed stereotypes about nationalities’ sexual practices.
While the French are often perceived to be more relaxed, and more romantic than people of other nationalities, 76% said they sometimes suffered from a lack of sexual response. Reasons included work and family stress. Spanish men may be seen as “hot-headed” and Americans as puritanical, but another sexual survey by Pfizer, who make Viagra, showed a similar level of sexual satisfaction reported by both. People from poorer countries were more likely to be satisfied with their sex lives. And all over the world, a similar level of people said that sex was “important” to leading a fulfilling life.
Viagra and other fun with the health-care bill
Senate Republicans, with help from the parliamentarian, succeeded in ensuring that the health-care reconciliation bill will return to the House for a concurring vote.
The Hill has lots of details.
This has to do with changes in student loan programs, which of course had no business being tucked into the health-care bill in the first place and apparently doesn’t belong in a reconcilation package.
Cialis shown to help with muscle dystrophy
Experts in the US have been looking into whether Cialis, a popular impotence treatment and rival to Viagra, could work effectively to improve blood circulation in those suffering with muscular dystrophy.
Leading the study was Professor Ronald G. Victor who expressed his opinion that his research backed previous studies and found that Cialis contained properties, proven to treat muscular dystrophy in mice.
