Kids, do not get these without prescriptions!

Posted by Linkmeister at October 24, 2002 03:35 PMfrank lautenberg has bigger issues than just age. word around the capital is that he is shrouded under the veil of alzheimer's disease. he has failed to appear at every debate and public apprearance so far and there is no word at all about his platform. all the vialbe replacement candidates took several big steps backwards when called upon to replace Torricelli. word is that if elected, he'll be replaced within weeks. "health issues"
