TV games

     Have you ever wondered if people actually pay attention to the Drug Advertisements on TV?  Well just to let you know....We DO!  It is actually the highlight of our night when we are able to turn on the TV for a split second and a Drug Advertisement comes on.  It is a complete game for us!  Whoever can say the brand name, generic name, what receptors they target in the body, and its mechanism of action....WINS!  Here is a little example for you, what do you think of when you see this picture?
Well here is exactly how it goes down for US when a commercial pops up....
Kali:  Oh Oh Cialis.....generic name is.....Tadalafil!!!! (1point of me)
Ryan:  Receptors (where does it target).....PDE 5 Inhibitor, long term effect (1 point for Ryan)
Ryan and Kali (this is being said by both): Mechanism of Action....allows for vasodilation to occur longer which makes an erection!!!! (both 1 point)

And the Winner is?  Like always a dang tie, but it sure is a fun game to play!

     Update:  Ryan continues to amaze me each and everyday.  Not only is he studying all day long to preform well on his tests to get his A's/100% he is also putting in 2-3 hours of board studying as well everyday.  I am so proud of his determination to do well on these upcoming boards in June, which pretty much determines what he will do.  He really is amazing.  Kali is still trying to go strong in school, getting a little worn out this quarter.  She is working at Target as a Pharmacy Intern every other weekend.  Life is good for us, nothing we can complain about, besides we would love to have just ONE day where we could do whatever we want....maybe in 10 years that might come.
