That's right!  Modern, grown-up pain requires a combination of
pharmaceuticals, nutraceuticals, Nutrageous, Eckankar, wishful thinking,
willful ignorance, Sonnabend's Cone Of Obliscence, a ground-up mummy's hand,
a victory garden, a side-by-side viewing of "American Graffiti" and
"Happy Days", accupressure, acupuncture, acurupture, AccuWeather,
ITC Aki Lines, LeVar Burton's magic eyeglasses, edible underwear,
wearable Underwood deviled ham, hammy devils, several newly-discovered
tab stops, aromatherapy, aromapunishment, Ritalin, a sauna suit,
canned chili, chunky peanut butter, runny peanut butter, buttery peanut
butter, invisible apricots, Rolfing, Putt-Putt brand Mini-Rolfing,
EST, Synanon, synaesthesia, SimCity, "Tubular Bells", Morgo the Friendly
Drelb, Janitor In A Drum, Janitor In Two Drums, an iBook, an eVilla,
and an oRangutan, Space Food Sticks, Kellogg's Pep pills, Anusol,
Vagisil, tiger's milk, Pooh's honey, pixie dust, cardboard, lemon zest,
Oil of Olay, "Pok/'erap", ear candles, eye candles, butt candles,
chiropractory via tractor beams, a sock full of Rice Krispies,
a Banana Hanger, a BaconWave, a Salad Shooter, Deal-A-Meal, AA, AAA,
a blindfolded surgeon with a cardiac needle, ten waltzing mice in
a Polytron, every photo ever posted to "Yahoo! Clubs", no WebTV,
internal Rollerblades, three kinds of placebo, and elastric truds.
