Subject:  Gin And Raisins.

  Although I have posted it in the past it is now official, because I 
read it in WWN, and you know if it is in print it has to be true, by 
taking raisins and gin you won't feel any pain from ar------s, 
especially if you eat enough of them.  Here's the local dope. 
 
.................................................................. 

  You can banish the crippling pain of ar------s by eating eight 
golden raisins soaked in gin! 

  That's the finding of noted nutritionist Dr. Lorenzo Abatz, whose 
book, Golden Goodness: The Miraculous Power of Golden Raisins, is due 
to hit the shelves this winter. 

  "For reasons we don't completely understand, the combination of gin 
and raisins acts as healing lubricant in the human body," writes Dr. 
Abatz.  "Their effect on inflamed ar------c joints is nothing short of 
astounding. 

  "But these two miracle-working substances must be used in the 
correct proportions or their potency will be diluted.  The secret is 
in the preparation and the dosage." 

  The respected researcher recommends the following regimen:

  1.    Cover eight golden raisins with one once of gin.  Let them 
        soak overnight -not less than eight hours but not more than 
        10. 

  2.    Drain off the gin. 

  3.    Eat one raisin every hour on the hour.  "You should notice a 
        difference within an hour of eating the first raisin," writes 
        Dr. Abatz.  "In 19 cases out of 20, the pain and inflammation 
        will be completely gone within 24 hours.  If it returns, 
        repeat the process." 

  The mainstream medical community has been slow to embrace Dr. Abatz' 
plan, but the Boston-based researcher's files are full of passionate 
testimoials.  Here are just a few: 

  *  The ar------s in my left hip was so painful I couldn't walk.  
After eating my golden raisins, I was out of my wheelchair before the 
day was through.  A week later I was exercise-walking three miles a 
day. - James H., Camden, N.J. 

  *  My wrists were so gnarled and twisted I couldn't even open a 
microwave popcorn bag.  Now I can twist off jar lids that my teenage 
grandson has trouble with. - Alice G., Venice, Calif. 

  *  It has been years since I could sleep without pain in all my 
joints.  After eating the golden raisins, I slept like a baby all 
night long without a twinge - Joe J., Brooklyn, N.Y. 

Warning:  Be sure to consult your doctors before trying this or any 
other remedy for ar------s. 

JW  Well now I heard it a little different that this.  I heard you 
should take a cup of golden raisins, cover them with gin, (the cheaper 
the better) and let them set for about a week or ten days, or until 
the gin dries up.  Eat about 8 per day and you'll get better.  I was 
told it works because Juniper Berries are used in the production of 
gin, and the use of them is mentioned in the bible, but be careful 
with them because they might be poison if you eat too much of them.  I 
may warn you that years ago when I was a meat eater, I was told that a 
good way to catch quail was to soak bird seed with gin or vodka over 
night and then put the seed out for the quail.  The quail will fill up 
with this mixture, get drunk, fall over on the ground and you can go 
out and pick them up, but don't tell anyone I told you this because it 
is highly against the law and will probably get you karmically in 
trouble.
