Mosquitoes! I hate them. There can be 100 people in a room and one mosquito, and I will be the only one in that room bitten. Once bitten, twice– not shy, itchy! I used to swell up from mosquito bites like Tom Cruise’s ego. I have a can of “Off!” everywhere I go– even that [...]

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome has no cure or effective treatment. Hopefully a new retrovirus might shed light on its cause and lead to a cure. | Tea is for intellectuals and coffee is for hard workers (like myself). However, the polyphenols that improved cholesterol, fight cancer and heart disease, aren’t that high [...]

I’m writing this article on Father’s day, when men all over the country celebrate the joys of parenthood. But what happens when a man cannot have a baby?
Oh, I know a man doesn’t get pregnant— well, unless he’s Thomas Beatie, a female-to-male transgender. I mean some men are unable to impregnate a woman. One of [...]

Flu shots are already available? You have to be kidding me! My own office doesn’t even have flu shots yet. You don’t want to get a flu shot too early because then you won’t be protected by the flu in the spring. CDC recommends flu shot November to March. | [...]
Bullies. Do you know some or have you known some? Normally when you think of a bully, you think of a kid, but trust me: there are plenty of adult bullies. My fifth-grade reading teacher used to call me racists names (though always Chinese and Japanese because he didn’t know what Korean was). Mind you, [...]
Botox for the face is the number-one non-surgical cosmetic procedure. It’s like “Take that frown and turn it upside down” because it paralyzes the muscles– although depending on where the Botox is used, both happy and frustrated faces can be erased.

Pea and The Princess is one thing, but a pea in the lung is more than bizarre. Watch about the man in Cape Cod who had a pea plant found inside his lung. | NDM-1 gene is making E. Coli resistant to some antibiotics, like some staph. This could be bad news. | [...]

Flip? What does it meant to be flip? Supermodel and phone-throwing Naomi Campbell flipped in Culture Club’s “I’ll Tumble 4 Ya” video. (That was before the age of the flip phone.) Some people flip the bird, which I’m sure the Audobon society frowns upon. A flip jump in [...]

Trick or Treat! Smell my feet. Give me something good to eat. (Ah, to be a kid again!) Thinking about it, isn’t it coercion to threaten to toilet-paper people’s houses or soap their windows if they don’t fork over some candy?
