I wish that American drug companies would just admit that medicine tastes AWFUL and stop trying to disguise it as something better tasting.

I wish they would make those hard-shell blister packs easier to get into, so I don't feel like I have to get out power tools to open them.

Try boubon instead. Tastes better, will certainly make you feel better and probably works better than the medicine the drug companies are peddling.

I wish they would stop bombarding us with advertising on TV and in magazines. Use that money to reduce the price of drugs.

I wish TV weather people would stop joking with the anchors that they have some control over the weather.

"I've got a great day planned for you tomorrow. Sunny, with a high of seventy-two. Winds out of the south at five miles per hour."

"Thanks, Nancy. That's great news. You've sure given us enough rain lately."

"Sorry about that, Bob. I'll do better this weekend so that all the viewers can get outside and enjoy the fine day. I will be bringing in some clouds early next weeks, so still tuned to Channel Five for my latest forecast."

I wish children's medicine didn't come in any kind of flavor. Yeah, it would be harder to get them to take it, but at least they wouldn't try to scale the cabinet for it. Medicine is supposed to taste like dooky for a reason...that main reason being that it prevents it from becoming bubblegum flavored death in a bottle.

I wish that I could say exactly what is on my mind, using the exact words that I'm thinking. Alas.

Here you go
. :D

It tastes awful. And it works.

As for me, I wish for a raise, which is a far less likely occurance than the American Drug Machine changing its spots...

I wish my doctor had given me the small Propranolol tablets I have now in the first place instead of the big pink hubcaps. Gagging twice a day on my medication didn't inspire me to take it...

Just wish the weather would decide if it wants to be sunny or over casted.

I wish they would stop running those stupid Cialis ads, with the people in the bathtubs. When was the last time you happened upon two empty bathtubs when out for a stroll????

Not to mention the concept that two bathtubs would put you in the mood for sex. :Wha:

Kinda deflates their sales pitch, doesn't it?

I was wondering if the two bathtubs were symbolic of the cigarette afterwards?
