Ted Kennedy while on a "vacation junket" skiing in the Alps courtesy of US Steel. As far as our group went, we didn't even talk to drug reps. And may I assume that part of that post was based on that TV show about oxycodone, which stretched the truth to the point of absurdity?

Funny, my daughter just recently commented that she went all thru HS and college using Celebrex pens and only recently learned what it was used for...
All I ever got were pens and post-it notes...
