My mom was worried about Erectile Dysfunction

[doggyboy]

So I was sitting on my porch, having a smoke and taking a short break to clear my mind, when I see my mom get up from the couch in the living and come over to the porch.

She opens the door, and I can see from her face that she is worried about something.

"db, they just had a show on TV and they said people with diabetes also get this other problem and they have a medicine for it. I have diabetes. Do I need that pill?" she asked

db: What kind of problem were they talking about?

mom: I don't know. It was something they said diabetics get

db: they didn't tell you the name of this problem

mom: yes, they called it Edie.

db: Edie? Are you sure?

mom: (getting a little annoyed) : YES!! Edie!! They even wrote it on the TV. Eeee-Deeee

db (laughing) : Oh! ED! Mom, they're talking about Erectile Dysfunction. Do you have any problems getting an erection?

mom (also laughing): Well, I've never even had an erection. You better get me some of that stuff

6. If you don't mind

a little nausea, vomiting, dizziness and drowsiness, there's a pill for that!

7. We have enough "brainiacs" on DU....surely we can...

do big pharma a favor and come up with a really cool new disease/disorder for them to "treat."
