Ask Your Doctor if Chewbacca is Right for You

10/5/2024

You know that generic drug names are just nonsense syllables made up by marketing people, right?

I was watching the news one night. Advertisers know who watches: old people, so there are lots of ads for prescription drugs.

I commented to my wife that so many of the drug names have three syllables, end with a vowel, preferably the letter "A." Got me thinking. 

I explore this phenomenon in You Look Good For Your Age. I speculate that if the word "Chewbacca" wasn't already taken, there would be a prescription drug with that name. You'll have to read the book for the punchline.

Also discussed: stirring natural peanut butter, a non-partisan look at how Spin Doctors are making politics even worse, the upside of using only 10% of your brain, how to expose impostors who claim to have read your latest book, how as President I would mandate a Federal Law requiring football games to start within one minute of their scheduled time, that kid in school who ate library paste, why "Jim" is a weak computer password, Cryptocurrency, how American Exceptionalism is producing planes on which the doors fall off, why it's impossible to get an appointment with a doctor, how charities threaten you, and many other topics ripped from Today's Headlines!

Everybody---All the Experts--are saying this is sure to be a Major Best Seller!!!!

​When it is released, you better order before the world runs out of paper.
​If you're an eBook reader, you may see the demand outstripping the power grid.
It's going to be that big!

Coming Soon:
You Look Good For Your Age
