Is that a lot?

The National Enquirer goes on sale today with a cover story claiming Michael Jackson took… well I mean you can see it. It’s right there.

That’s more than 50 pills a day … more than 30 different types of drugs “for a variety of real and imagined” problems, according to police sources close to the official investigation.
“He was literally living on drugs,” a close source divulged.

Well, he wasn’t “literally” living on drugs but whatever. We shouldn’t jump to conclusions. What’s the recommended daily allowance on painkillers? Is it four? Because he was taking four. Maybe he wasn’t getting enough from his diet alone. And what better way to know what sedative or stimulants work best than to put 8 of them in your system at the same time and let em fight it out?
