Just spoke with Dr Google and both contained aspirin, phenacetin and caffeine and were a mild stimulant used regularly at that time. Eventually banned when phenacetin identified as a cause of kidney cancer.

Who would of thought that the idea of a mobile phone was invented by Mel Brookes,admittedly the design and size is a little different

Quite a visionary Mel Brookes, I mean who would have thought to knock out a horse.

Best comic brain of all time IMHO. Blazing Saddles was hilarious. Loved Madeline Kahn's role.

Killer Kowalski, Mario Milano, Larry O'Dea, Abdullah the Butcher, Ox Baker, Killer Karl Cox, Ron Miller, Haystacks Calhoun...all great memories of a Sunday lunchtime watching World Championship wrestling.
I always wanted to look like Bulldog Brower when I grew up.
I ended up looking more like Brute Bernard......

I remember Skull Murphy.
Not too much of the others.
But do you remember Kangaroo Roy Heffernan?
