1. I wouldn't say they were "golden days"
but there was in fact a time in our not-so-distant past when things were a hell of a lot better than they are right now.

2. They have a treatment for that now...
It removes the pain but leaves the hankering intact.

I saw something about it on a commercial.

(Psst.. Me too.)

15. Have You Tried Using Any Hankering Ointment...
... and a couple of aspirin. That usually stops mine from being painful.
