JD let down by JD

Back when I was a kid (age 18-25) I had a foolproof remedy for colds/the flu. Jack Daniels. I found that if I drank enough Jack, usually more than half a bottle, I would wake up feeling better. Of course there was a mild hangover from time to time but overall I wouldn't be sick. Recently I have found this doesn't seem to work anymore. I went out last night and drank copious amounts of whiskey. I woke up this morning to much worse symptoms and a pretty stellar hangover. So to this I say what my parents have been saying to me for years. JD, you've let me down again.
