You have to read the right journals.
It's been a serious problem in some areas, enough to scare some of the
pharmacies.

I know. I have a 'scrip for Amphetamines. It has to be filled within 3
days of the doc's issue date. And I have to have a written 'scrip. A
phone call won't do.

Fortunately she issues me enough to last 3 to 4 months. She knows I hate
stimulants so won't abuse them.

I still have calves foot jelly left over. Dad loves the stuff and there
is something about that recipe that gives him extra energy and makes him
feel really good. I'll make it for him as often as he does not get tired
of it.

Calves feet are cheap.
