Sorry to be so long, but I'm sick at home today and have plenty of time...between coughing spells

If you've got a cold, try taking a zinc tablet and "ester-c" vitamin c, once a day, for a few days. It lessens the severity of the cold and might let you recover quicker... It works for me, anyway! Good luck!

If that doesn't help, make a real strong hot toddy with tea, whiskey(just about any will do) and honey.  At least you'll be able to sleep comfortably!

Hack hack cough cough!!! …can I have one for breakfast too?
