Scenes from Gas Station Restrooms

On both of my trips to Lincoln, Illinois, I've stopped for gas at the Marathon station in Clinton, Illinois. I was bemused to see the following product available for sale inside the men's room, if only one had three quarters to insert . . .

We've got some serious marketing problems here. Horny Goat Weed?? I'm picturing a TV commercial with four guys singing an Elvis knock-off, "Viva Horny Goat Weed, Viva Horny Goat Weed."

The instructions at the bottom state, "Take 2 capsules 45 minutes prior to pleasurable activity." Hmmm. I'm glad to see that they're supplying genuine Horny Goat Weed, not some generic look-alike. I'm also glad to note that this is maximum strength Horny Goat Weed. You know you're getting only the very best in goat weed there.

Somehow, I think Horny Goat Weed can't be good for you, or anyone else for that matter. If you're buying your "health care" supplies in a men's room in rural Illinois, you've got problems far beyond trying to find "pleasurable activity."
