Every morning I wake up on

The wrong side of capitalism

Homeopathy works!

I couldn’t find a chemist, so I went in to some ridiculous herbalist shop to buy some vitamin C tablets this morning. I’ve got a cold, and don’t really have time to eat the necessary number of oranges. I got talking to the woman in the shop, who pointed me to a list of homeopathic cold remedies. I didn’t buy any of them. My cold is now much better — the homeopaths are obviously right about the less of the active ingredient, the more good it does you.

  1. The Vitamin C thing is to *prevent* colds — it’s a bit late when you’ve
    already got one. William Burroughs recommends large doses of Vitamin E
    to reduce cold symptoms and/or cure the cold (I forget which) — don’t
    know how comfortable you are taking medical advice from an ex-junkie,
    though… (Burroughs, not me)
