Linkfest: Free Viagra in Chilean Town

A Chilean mayor plans to give Viagra away to men over the age of 60. Mayor Gonzalo Navarette Munoz, a physician, says he heard older patients complaining about their sex lives. "This is about giving our elderly population a better quality of life," he told reporters.

It's the Ramble.

I was at Coachella, and the pig happened to break off, it did so at the end of the song; we totally thought that it was part of the show...

Rachel Martin on Amy Winehouse: "She slapped a man with her open hand...maybe he deserved it. Who are we to say?"

Hmm...That comment seems just a bit too cavalier.

Rachel, what Amy Winehouse did is considered assault. It would be assault whether she hit you or a British man.

Mike continues to crack me up. Yes, sometimes he steers the show into a conversational iceberg, but it's worth it for gems such as "Maybe he just thought viagra would give him an election." Priceless.
