Isn't it awefully nice?

I'm a little behind the times, but the other day I was watching the Today show (it's on in the mornings) and they were doing a story on fake drugs. Apparently there is big money in making fakies for Viagra, Cialas, and the like. By contacting one of the larger distributors in China, they were able to obtain some fake Viagra. They took these fakes to Pfizer, the makers of Viagra, to have them analyze the pill's contents.

It's a good thing I didn't have a mouth full of milk when they announced that the chemist that they were working with was named John Thomas, because the tv would have been white.

For those of you that don't get the irony, you've not seen Monty Python's The Meaning of Life, or don't recognize the British slang. I'll leave looking that up as an exercise to the reader.
