Nah. Viagra is old stuff. Cialis is the best bang for the buck.

Viagra and Levitra both have a terminal half life of approximately 4 hours and for Cialis it is approximately 17.5 hours.

I figured you'd like the alternative of spitting seeds vs. having to pay cash for the medicine.

Nah. Faster to take the meds. With Cialis, "I. Give you everything you want. Boom Boom long time."

Slow day?

I heard this on the radio this morning. But here's a tip.
Forget the Watermelon. Just go to the store and buy L-Argenine. OTC Amino Acid. Cost is about 5 or 6 dollars for a bottle of 50 capsules. They are either 500 or 1000 mg's.
I call it "Poor mans Viagra". (Wal-Mart even sells it)

My cardiologist told me about it a few years ago and I have been using it. It does help some. Make sure you take enough. I usually take 3 or 4 capsules in the am when I'm lookin forward to nightime fun.

Ain't life grand!

And you can take 1 Clalis tablet and be ready for nighttime fun within half an hour. And it lasts the whole weekend.

You know, I asked my Cardio about that last week, why a Viagra rx and not Cialis. He told me that for me, a heart risk guy who does not take nitrates, that if I ever needed nitrates in an emergency, the risk period could be longer on Cialis than Viagra. So, he wrote the script for the Blue Diamonds.

I've used L-Argenine for years with some other suppliments for weight-lifting. That certainly explains those side effects I've been experiencing! gives new meaning to the expression "hard body!"

I think L-Argenine capsules are working in about an hour or so. Tablets take longer to become effective. The am thing is just my pill taking habit. One & done and out the door for the day. No pill pouch for me.

But, if you take nitrates, L Argenine is safer than Viagra, etc., which, of course, are not to be mixed with nitrates.

Tablets are under 30 mins

Safer, yes. But is it clinically proven to be just as effective?

If you have nitrates that you are taking, maybe you should try Levitra? Some people see blue spots with Viagra

Is this what comedians mean when they say they are "working blue?"
