New Adventures of Queen Victoria by Pab Sungenis for October 28, 2020

A lot of people agree with Doc Pemberton.

I snorted Coke and nearly drowned.

They should have kept the lithium in 7-Up.

Back when Coke really WAS the Real Thing…

They say that cocaine’s for horses and not for men,

They tell ya it’ll kill ya but they won’t say when…

Cocaine is god’s way of telling you that you have too much money.

I add my own.

Sales would really perk up if they put it back

Coke, The Pause that refreshes. Coke, It’s the Real Thing. Things go better with Coke! Coke adds life. Coke, You can’t beat the feeling. Coke is it! Sometimes I really miss the 80’s…

Why, yes, it is Dr. Pemberton!

at one time in the USA, cocaine, opium, morphine, laudanum, and heroin were over the counter drugs, found in most children’s medicine, and aspirin was only available by prescription

In 1929, the Schaeffer Alkaloidal Works perfected the process to remove cocaine from the coco leaves used in Coca Cola. Shortly after, the Stock Market Crashed leading to the Great Depression (or as some say, the Great Withdrawal)

What’s the difference between Richard Pryor and Michael Jackson?

Not running around with their hair on fire, that’s for sure…
