I thought I'd heard it all, but I guess I haven't...

Wow... and just $16.99 for a 16 ounce bottle.

Of course they aren't charging anything for the "special incantation.

As with the first recommended use, maintain a sense of calm or serenity in a place of comfort. We recommend softly repeating a mantra such as Today I feel wonderful. I am full of health, vitality and love. The pain is subsiding and I am thankful for the blessings in my life. Repeat this or your own peaceful phrase three times.


with warm regards,

That's BEFORE shipping Tony....

I commented on their site, challenging them to provide a peer reviewed journal article showing any effect on cluster headaches.  I doubt that they will be sending me any.

You should read the [load of millarkey] testimonials on the website!

ARGH!

Are you surprised that this dangerous Dihydrogen Monoxide has some useful properties too?

Not only can it be 'energized' to cure your headaches, but its memory effect is used for 200 years already by the biggest health scam there is: homeopathy.

What did George Carlin say (new rules of life) "Flavored water is POP!"  (Seems fitting here!)

But I think we're taking this all wrong guys. What we really need to do is come up with our OWN scam and market it... These guys are making BIG BUCKS on this stuff. We're laughing about it when we could be cashing on on something just as stupid as this.

Now just think about this -- Magic Headache Powder! We get some cheap baby powder, put it in a plastic bag, along with some "magic" herbs (to be determined later) and market it as Granny's magic cure for Clusters... should make us millions.... Anyone want to invest on the ground floor??? Haven't worked out the whole marketing plan yet, but this is a no-brainer and guaranteed to bring in millions when marketed to the masses.

Just think a headache powder that you sprinkle on your pillow and it works while you sleep... what could be any more simple? And the testimonials would be astounding....

The reality is that people who create these kinds of products generally don't make a bundle.  And this is not to have any pity for them. But, their general disregard for the golden rule is often applied across the board. And, in the cosmic karmic justice department, they do end up "getting" theirs. Dante described a couple of perpetuity care communities for the folks who come up with the next big scam.
