I'm old enough to remember watching Ray Stevens sing it on television.

...Oh, yes they call him The Streak (boogadad, boogadad),

He likes to show off his physique...

some of the cold medications dropped pseuphedine [?] because it was suspected of causing causing stokes and it was being used in the production of crack

are still available otc but you have to present id and sign for them and you are limited in amount that you can buy

however it would take a lot of sudafed to make the sx that you described...

Not only to I remember "The Streak" I remember that album on a reel to reel tape! Yikes!!!

Oh boy, I loved Ray Stevens! My favorites, though, were "It's Me Again Margaret" and "Sittin up with the Dead."

/offtopic. :)

I think that she was probably taking meth and was referring to some of the original ingredients to dampen the severity of what she has done. I suppose that she also took off her clothes to lay down her burdens, but, hey...

hehehe one of the male nurses who had to tackle her in the hospital wanted to get a white horse and called her Lady Godiva....

i love the posted comments i haven't laughed this much in a long time,,

you all are wonderful and i love you:yeah:

The lab running the drug test should be able to determine the source of the positive- they can do some pretty amazing things.

I agree that it would take an extraordinary dose of sudafed to make someone do the "Don't look Ethel!" through the grocery store!

Pretty funny mental picture. Lady Godiva, too.

OK... I have seen this a MILLION times..... pregnant mom "drops in" to L/D. Mom tox is pos for amphetamines and baby is pos. Mom says she took sudafed!

I know that the lab is able to determine what "type" of amphetamines shows up in the tox and that the pt in fact took no sudafed!

Sudafed has pseudoephedrine - an ingredient used in making methamphetamines. This is why cold/allergy meds with pseudoephedrine are now kept behind the pharmacy counter and they practically search you and run a background check on you when you buy it.

As to the story about the woman.........too much trouble to speculate.

The once or twice a year I have to buy it, I tell the pharmacist, I only have a small meth lab :D
