Pfizer Corp. is making the announcement today that VIAGRA will soon be available in liquid form and will be marketed by Pepsi Cola as a power beverage suitable for use as a mixer. Pepsi's proposed ad campaign claims it will now be possible for a man to literally pour himself a stiff one. Obviously we can no longer call this a soft drink. This additive gives new meaning to the names of c0cktails, highballs and just a good old fashioned stiff drink. Pepsi will market the new concoction by the name of Mount & Do. Also, just something to think about.... The long term implications of drugs and medical procedures must be fully considered: Over the past few years, more money has been spent on breast implants and Viagra than was spent on Alzheimer's disease research. It is believed that by the year 2030, there will be a large number of people wandering around with huge breasts and erections who can't remember what to do with them. So be careful.

I guess this is Pepsi's attempt to counter Coke's promise of "a Coke and a smile"

LMAO....How ironic that Pfizer also owns the patent on Imitrex, the first medication to specifically target and stop a migraine without drowziness.

Now when they sell their new beverage, they can co market it with imitrex... *snicker* so much for the "I've got a headache" routine.

So glad I bought stock in the company years ago

Wasn't Coke first sold as an elixer to ease headaches?

Sorry for dropping the ball with the Viagra humor today.

I heard it was a phoney form of curing colds. And sold by traveling salesmen in the early 1900's or somewhere around that time. It was one of the less respected jobs, as they basically were selling phoney stuff, but it tasted good.

Thats what Ive heard...and it was from a history teacher, so its a somewhat reliable source...

Hmm, didn't Coke originate in Georgia? Are you sure you're not thinking of the Watkins man, Tybbs, or is that just a Minnesota thing, like Schwan's. Your date sounds about right, albeit vague!

Perhaps someone out there knows the real Coke story, this being the Viagra & Pepsi thread and all. Sorry DW!
