Maybe I just didn't read it closely enough, but I was under the impression he got hooked as a result of failed back surgery. So those first pills would've been legit prescriptions.
The reason narcotics are so addictive, and this is true of pretty much any addictive substance, is because the body adapts and it takes more and more of the substance to achieve the same effect. Thus for someone who is living with pain, a pain killing narcotic is a dangerously addictive substance, and that's why I said I'm inclined to have a bit of sympathy for them.
That's all. I have no opinion either way about Rush otherwise. I'm neither a fan nor a hater. I've never listened to his show.

I'm not sure which is more ironic... the situation above, or
last week's incident of the magician Roy getting attacked by
the tiger in his show... I mean when is the last time you heard
about a gay man getting eaten by a pussy ??

Groan!
I saw where Sigfried tried to say the tiger thought it was "protecting" Roy by picking him up and dragging him off stage after he fell. They're in denial, that cat followed it's instincts and went for the jugular.
Though I have to admit it's amazing that they had a run this long and that's the only real incident with the animals.
