Dolly Parton is the shit! I saw her last night at Radio City Music Hall (first time there, very impressive). She played most everything I wanted to hear – plus a very awkward retrospective of classic hits from the 50′s, 60′s and 70′s that left you asking yourself, “What’s going on?” The only diddy she didn’t play was “Travelin Thru,” but nobodies perfect.

In other news, tomorrow I’m running the Brooklyn Half-Marathon. I did it last year too, this time I’m not quite as nervous (having run a Marathon now, anything less doesn’t seem so daunting). It goes from Coney Island to Prospect Park. Not the prettiest run in the world, but it celebrates Brooklyn, my borough, and one must represent. Holla!

I read an article yesterday about a Muslim tradition in India where you throw a child over the top of a tall building. They say it makes their children stronger.

Coincidentally, my father did something similar. He pushed me off the side of a boat when I was 6. Instead of swimming to the top I just sank and sank. A minute later, and a tiny resuscitation, I was back! “Why didn’t you swim to the top,” my dad asked, panting for breath after rescuing me. “I don’t know how to swim,” I replied, smiling.

Oh, those were the days!

Better than VIAGRA!
Like Viagra, Cialis, and Levitra, ERECTifix Rx is an oral aphrodisiac that stimulates erectile function. ERECTifix Rx helps most men with ED improve their erections. This means they are able to achieve harder erections. But unlike Viagra and the others, ERECTifix Rx is an edible film strip that dissolves on contact and usually works almost immediately. You will be ready and raring to go within seconds as opposed to the 30 minutes that Viagra needs to take effect. Additionally, ERECTifix Rx Strips are so small you can carry a whole supply tucked into your wallet, like a book of stamps, always ready to use.
Getting an erection is only half the story. Maintaining one is just as important. ERECTifix Rx can help with both. This can lead to a more satisfying sexual experience with your partner. As an added bonus, ERECTifix Rx will also freshen up your breath at the same time with the great taste of cinnamon.
Who can take ERECTifix Rx?
* Men of all ages
* Men who have difficulty all the time or just some of the time
* Men with other health issues such as high blood pressure, diabetes, and depression
See for yourself why ERECTifix Rx Strips more than exceed the sexual demands of every man and more than surprises the wildest hopes, dreams and expectations of every woman. ERECTifix Rx is an absolute must for sexually active men, or men shamed into sexual retirement due to erectile dysfunction.

What is erectile dysfunction?
ED is when a man has problems getting or maintaining an erection long enough for sex. It happens when not enough blood flows to the penis.
ED isn’t the same for all men. Some men aren’t able to get an erection at all. Others can get one, but it’s not hard enough for sex. And others get a hard erection but lose it before or during sex.
ED is a medical condition. So in most cases, erections will not improve without treatment.
Treatment works.
It’s important to know that ED is a medical condition and not necessarily just part of getting older. The good news is that with treatments like ERECTifix Rx, men with ED can significantly improve their erections. And better erections can mean better sex.
Talk to you soon!
