    a guy walks into a pharmacy.
    he says to the pharmacist, "i've heard a lot about that viagra stuff. Does it really work."
    the pharmacist says, "yeah, it works great."
    the guy asks, "do you think i could get it over the counter?"
    pharmacist says, "well, if you took enough i suppose you could."
