Amy Winehouse has a Skin Disease
I don't mean her drug addiction either. Amy Winehouse has some sort of skin disease called impetigo. It seems pretty convenient that she has this because I don't think I've ever met a junkie who didn't look like this. Normally it's from them sticking all those toxins into their system, you know...like heroin, cocaine and whatever it's cut with, all that crap. It comes to the surface very rapidly and just screws up your skin.
It's a bacterial skin infection that causes pimple-like lumps - and is "is highly contagious, and scratching or touching the sores is likely to spread the infection to other parts of the body as well as to other people," according to the Mayo Clinic's Web site.
And yes, Winehouse, 24, had been prescribed drugs ... in the form of antibiotics.
Okay it's impetigo. I was thinking that one time when I sacrificed a chicken and said "a pox on her" that it actually might have worked. Of course the chicken was dead and I was eating it, but you have to admit the Colonel's secret recipe at Kentucky Fried Chicken is somewhat magical.

What is ti about this train wreck?
I just do not get it. She is not all that pretty and in that photo looks too much to be a guy for me to even think about it.

I had empetigo once in Puerto Rico when I was young. Kept it dry and clean and used some ointment and it was sorted in less than 2 weeks. Not that big a deal as far as tropical diseases go.
Amy Winehouse, I’m afraid, has bigger daemons to exorcise.
