Completely Indestructible Pills.
Previously only available to cartoon characters.
Ever wondered how Tom and other cartoon characters manage to survive enormous falls, having heavy objects falling on them, being run over by a train or running into a tree?
Now you also can be completely indestructible.
P.S. One possible side effect is that you could become 2-Dimensional and only appear on “cartoon Time”.

Jones, Jones, Jones, Jones, Jones, Jones, Jones, Jones and Jones (and Sons). Estate Agents.
Very
“spacious” property. Early viewing recommended.
A highly unusual property has come
onto the market. Previously owned by a TIME LORD, known in many incarnations as
DR WHO. The TARDIS, although only looking like a small old police phone box
from the outside is enormously huge
on the inside.
As
is well known, location is highly significant in the consideration of
purchasing a property. This is another reason why an early viewing is highly
recommended. This property can travel though SPACE and TIME and so can enjoy
for some period ANY LOCATION IN THE UNIVERSE.
One
consideration to bear in mind however before purchasing this property is that
power mad megalomaniac aliens, such as THE DALEKS, who don’t realise this
property has been sold to a mortal being, may pursue you through the afore
mentioned time and space, with the intention of blasting every one of your
cells from one end of the universe to another.
This
property is on the market at £2 million or 16 Agrian Mangle Blix.
Apply Vendors. (Ask for Mr Jones).
