Yeah, I'm sure this commercial is regional, but some of you out there have seen it!

And thanks for reminding me of my neighbour's weirdo mum from when I was a small lad. Dettol (disinfectant) cured EVERYTHING! Cut finger? Dettol. Bruised leg? Dettol? Headache? dettol in a tissue to hold against your forehead. Upset stomach? same tissue lower down.

Idiot.

Well I suppose it might have had a placebo effect, if only the neighbourhood kids were as dumb as she thought.

Chris Rock said it was Robitussin, as the cure for everything.

"Put a little 'tussin on it, it'll be all right." [/paraphrase]

Wasn't there a show or movie where they put Windex on everything? (edit) Oh yeah, My Big Fat Greek Wedding

I can make a cure at home for nothing. All I need is a small aubergine.

You bet! Works everytime. I mean really, the blood goes elsewhere so if someone is thinking about that head instaed of the other, there's a problem there.

I too suffer from headaches. But mine are caused by several different symptoms, and usually I know what I did to cause it. Unfortunately for me, sex does get rid of the headache *during* but it always comes back just as bad if not worse right after the after glow has passed. So I usually take something for it. I get headaches if I have been having a lot of caffeine lately and I start to cut down, and those I just take something for until it wears off in a day or so. I used to get really bad headaches from eye strain. I wore contacts, and looking at a computer all day just didn't work with that. So I started wearing glasses, and within 6 months my eye strain headaches were almost all gone. I also get headaches from allergies, and those I can only get rid of with allergy medicine. Or if I am too far gone, just regular pain medicine. I also get tension headaches, and those I just have to force myself to relax and wait it out. Maybe if you find the source of your headaches you can get rid of them for the most part. I think it might be more then stress if you feel relaxed but you still have the headache.
