"No moving parts, no batteries.
No monthly payments
and no fees.
Inflation proof, non-taxable,
in fact it's quite
reliable.
It can't be stolen,
won't pollute,
one size fits all,
do not dilute.
It uses little energy,
but yields results
enormously.
Relieves your tension
and your stress,
invigorates your happiness.
Combats depression,
makes you beam
and elevates your
self esteem.
Your circulation it
corrects
without complicated
side effects.
It is, I think, the
perfect drug.
May I prescribe, my
friend. . . . . . the hug!"
