BOB'S EYE VIEW
A PLETHORA OF PILLS or PAIN BE GONE
I have never been more proud of my county, Broward, than yesterday, when I learned that Broward County, Flori-DUH is now considered the number one county in the United States for dispatching pain pills, much of it illegal.
It was reported in the Miami Herald that Broward County is now the epicenter of a prescription-drug epidemic that is rapidly spreading across the entire eastern United States.
In the second half of last year alone, Broward County doctors dispensed 6.5 million oxycodone pills. I would guess that "the cheeseburger that sweats," a.k.a. Rush Limbaugh, is responsible for purchasing at least 3 million of those pills. Nevertheless, that's still a plethora of pills.
SEE YOU SOON.

Shocking to hear that pain pills are a problem in South Florida, but you know, there's a lot of pain involved in living in Broward. We get a lot of immigrants from there up here in Martin, but my neighbors and I keep careful watch at the county line and we're building a wall.
