#2 dunno - he's not linking to a source yet, but I saw that and my jaw hit the space bar....white raisins??? Gin explains a lot of her fugue states on the stage

#3 Hmm the Dim health plan perhaps. Ok let's bleed the patient for a while.

#4 Actually, that's been around for quite a while. It seems to work for some people, though no one knows why.

My question is, with her money and complete separation from reality, how did she find out about it?

It's more a remedy for the "little people."

#9 After 8 weeks of the Heinz-Kerry treatment you reach the magical 72 virgin raisins and spontaneously blow up.

#10 1. I LIKE white raisins. Like whats your problem?

2. Gin. Well i usually go easy on that. But between Bush and Kerry, thats pretty good reason for more gin right there.

Junk science just like their junk 'Plans'....

The only position 'T' wants to be in is while wearing a strap-on.

Probably growing up in Mozambique.

#20 What's with the raisins? Sounds like a way to ruin some perfecly good gin, assuming there is such a thing.

#21 One of the doctors here can probably correct me on this if I'm wrong, but doesn't alcohol in general make many forms of arthritis worse?

#22 One of the problems with THK's theory is that a lot of arthitis patients take over the counter pain killers.

Having a lot of gin with these can be a problem. In particular, if you drink heavily and take tylenol, its a big strain on the liver.

#23 "Sounds like a way to ruin some perfecly good gin, assuming there is such a thing."

Ahem. **ANY** gin is perfectly good gin.

#25 ANY gin is good gin? What is this, an anglophile? Phuii! Maybe good for cleaining grease off car rims, but... 12 year old single malt Scotch - Macallan's to be specific. Drink of the gods.

#26 Talisker, neat. Lagavullin will do, too. Or Oban in a pinch

#27 Tanqueray is considered the best gin.

#28 Talisker's OK. Dalhwinnie is lovely. Haven't tried the others. Laphroaig tastes like iodine. Can't account for all tastes.

#29 Being British by birth (and American by choice) I have always believed in the medicinal and therapeutic value of gin. I have never been afflicted with arthritis however, and I believe that the first lush lady self-designate has an obligation to provide some clinical evidence.

#30 I've heard ordinary gin won't do - it has to be Gordon's.

That's all Tarayza drinks. All day long.

#35 So it has come to this: the most heavily commented article on Rantburg today is Tarayza's arthritis cure. I'm sure she's feeling no pain. I can hardly wait for this election to be over.
