Red Red Wiyiyine, Stay Close to Me....

I'm no doctor, but I am a pioneer of innovative self medicating. For instance, did you know that when you suffer from a sore throat and headache, a bottle of red wine does the trick just as well as cough drops and Advil?

You have to be okay with drinking at 9:00 a.m. but I am perfectly okay with drinking at 9:00 a.m. Best yet, it turns the common head cold into a party for one.

Bob Marley's is the ONLY version fit to listen to! Who are those white guys?
(But thanks, hadn't thought of that song in a long time.)
