Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.VIAGRA USERS just can't keep quiet about their new-found potency. Hundreds of happy and satisfied customers have joined a new Internet site to share their experiences and pass on user-friendly tips to novices.
The Viagra Talk site, which is modulated by Dr Brian McDonough to root out any messages of questionable taste, carries long lists of comments and advice about the drug and its effects. According to several contributors it is, for instance, best taken on an empty stomach rather than after a meal: "I find that when taken after a large meal it takes two to three hours for the pill to work and it only lasts six to seven hours. When I take it on an empty stomach it lasts about 10 hours," says one user.
Another worries: "While my wife enjoys my new-found virility, she wonders if we can both keep up the pace of our youth."
One man found that he could save money by cutting the tablet in half: "The cost for 25, 30 and 100mg tablets is the same per tablet for all three. Why pay $9 for a 50mg tablet when it costs only half that amount. A third of a tablet works great for me."
Then of course, there is the odd failure: "Tried 50mg the first time and no luck. Tried 100mg the second and again no luck. It's been two weeks now ..."
