Still, Inquiring Minds want to know, and I'd be interested in reading the whole, real story of how he split with Marta, etc. I think there is still more to this, although not necessarily bad for Rush.
At any rate, I will repeat what my wife said when Rush announced he was addicted: "We should all be addicted. If that guy could do his job that well on that level of medication, then perhaps we should all get hooked."
In fact, it reminded me of the famous WKRP in Cincinnati episode where they were trying to demonstrate the dangers of alcohol and reaction times. So they were giving Dr. Johnny Fever shots, then a Highway Patrol was checking his reaction time, and the drunker he got, the quicker and sharper were his reactions!
