Well, I've taken several minutes pondering your statement, and I've
yet to figure out what I missed. The party to whom I was responding
made a comment about Preparation H, a topical treatment for
hemerrhoids (what ever happened to Preparation A through G, by the
way?).
Now, the comment he made was in the context of the ointment version of
the product, with the implication of external application, but it also
comes in suppositories. I don't know if I need to explain that or not
(and as a matter of fact, the ointment can be applied internally with
the use of an applicator).
Now perhaps I should have included the setup to the punchline which
involves a dull-witted patient complaining of lack of effect with the
product he had been taking orally.
Spelling seems all okay, as does punctuation. I can't even conjure
much of a link between my first statement and my second. Beyond that,
I'm lost. Someone's going to have to explain it to me.
Meanwhile, I'm still laughing.

If you can't figure out how to use it, I probably wouldn't
care to correspond with you anyway.
