People try light therapy regarding depression but a dog works best when plain ol lonliness is the real cause.
Hollywood stars take expensive pills, drink expensive booze and die.
I take pills that incidentaly help mood. I never tried any of the antidepressants like Zoloft, Soma, Pacifex, Numnuts, Comatrin or Putricil or whatever they are called. I take lots of Niacin. It perks me up and raises the good cholestoral. Vit. B1 has reverse Alheimers in rats. Lots of vitamin D and D3 and a mutiple vitamin. Ginseng supplements add a bit of robust mood. Depending on your chemistry some synthetic opiates like Fukitall are highly energizing while not messing with your serotonin levels like antidepressants. For others it just makes them woggy. I don't take St.Johns Wort but there are claims it works. I just don't like the Word Wort.

Watching cable news is a downer like having a 50 sq foot painting of Vietnamese children on fire in your living room. Watching my son play Little Big Planet is amazing primarily because the games are made by him and another 1.1 million surrealistic game levels made by all the players.

Here is a dinner time pick me up.
We play a game with the kids by inventing new foods. The first one is to name any food then add "on a stick" at the end. Or The sneezing chef presenting Artichoke heart Pizza a' la CHOOO. Then new recipes like adding metamucil to hamburger to make Fiberger. Coca Coffee, Dr. Ripper fart enhancer... any kind of popcorn as quick as you can... Cinnamon popcorn. Name a Chocolate anything, Garlic flavored anything. Funny toppings should include drugs advertised on TV with all thier side effects.

Or "Its time to play Celebrity Endorsments!!!"

Food quizes Name the 10 condiments Moses served in tablets.

Playing political seasoning and sauces can be fun. "This is Fred Thomson and my favorite is spaghetti with sea bond sauce and Obamaballs.

Wink Wink this is Sarah Palin for Sarah Palin's pizza paste on a stick. You can get all mavericky and dip your Palin Pizza paste stick in cheese or pupperonis or just suck it raw, wink wink.

Hello this is Harry Reed speaking for milk toast, a tangy treat that can't be beat for its light complextion without a trace of Negro dialect.

This is Gordon Libby for Progressive Catsup. Just spill it on your plate and imagine that its the blood of liberal scum that sucked the freedom out of our country and eat it!

This is Dick Cheney for the Dick Cheney Grill. You can grill anything anytime and anyone with this grill, I guarantee it, or I'll shoot you in the face.

So as you see we verbally play with our food as a rule.

Incidently we call root beer popsicles "Frozen poop on a stick.
Yep poop never fails. This is Rush Limbaugh and have I got a treat for you. It is my famous Limbaugh Poop Sauce. Thats right just dribble it on anything and you can make it stink to high heaven. Try it on facts, your librul commie neighbors car, in an elevator full of feminazis. DOn;t accept imitations, Buy only authentic Limbaugh poop sauce.


Hmmm, maybe I better cut back on the Niacin.
