happy Friday to you kids, (it is Friday, isn't it?  ya'll know how
granny loses track of time)

okay, so granny spent a while finding this drug since it's "luv"
instead of "love" ... grrr.  I need a website or two that has all the
brand names and slang terms (white crosses, etc.) for drugs that
over-the-road
truckers take to stay awake.  

this site (bottom of page) ....

http://events.calendarlive.com/top/1,1419,L-LATimes-Search-X!ArticleDetail-41483,00.html

has a few but I'm looking for that elusive all-encompassing list(s). 
don't need any ingredients -- just the names from a fairly reliable
source will do.  please, can you help granny for this chicken feed
sum?

thanks a million!

Hi, Granny Bing!

Truckers' self-medication for the purpose of maintaining alertness may
take the form of prescription amphetamines (sometimes purchased
illicitly) or over-the-counter stimulants such as caffeine and
ephedrine.

Whew. Just reading the names of all those things could keep a person
awake at night. I hope this gives you a boost, Granny. As for me, as
soon as I peel myself off the ceiling, I'm going for a nap.

Best to ya,

hey pinkie!

exactly what I need but being the pain in the hindquarters that granny
is, would there be any quick way I could get these alphabetized into
one continuous list?  I wanna print it out for quick reference.  it's
fine if the brand names are intermingled with the slang terms.

after your nap?  next week sometime?  you'd be scrathing off one more
thing on granny's "to do" list and she'd be jump up-and-down
maniacally grateful.

much obliged!

What an eye-opening question this turned out to be! I had no idea
there were so many waker-upper substances in all the world. I think
I'll stick to my faves: strong tea and dark chocolate (though not
necessarily together.)
