Do doctors make the worst patients? I’m sitting in my hotel room in Utah with ice on my elevated right knee. Torn ACL, chipped bone on my tibia, and possible torn lateral collateral ligament. Yippee, everybody dance now!
After skiing for four fabulous days, I fell at Snowbird while doing nothing and twisted my knee. [...]
“I’m walking on sunshine, Wooah, And don’t it feel good!” Remember Katrina and The Waves? Oh, you don’t? So many one-hit wonders. I don’t know if it would be worse to never have a big song or to think you have it “made in the shade” and then never walk on sunshine again. [...]
Jewish dance master Steve Weintraub gave a workshop on Yiddish dance to Klezmer music. When I entered the Beth Israel Synagogue for the very first time, I had no idea what Klezmer music was, but I did have some idea of Yiddish dance-well, only because I was Motel the tailor in Fiddler on the [...]

Does Rush Limbaugh have a neurological movement disorder and Oxycontin withdrawal? When he mocked Hillary Clinton’s emotional talk during the New Hampshire primaries, his body movements were jerking around as he did when he mocked Michael J. Fox, who suffers from Parkinson’s Disease. Why is he so polarizing?
Most Americans I know respect the opinions [...]
Hayden Panettiere, the auto-regenerating cheerleader from Heroes, is Ms. Paparazzi Queen! You know you’re hot stuff when you’re filmed and photographed while getting a mani-pedi. On one episode, while painting her toenails, Hayden cut off her pinky toe to see if it would regenerate— which it did, just like a starfish!
Now, I’ve [...]

“I’m on hold,” is something all of us have said. With companies facing increasing demands but less profit, we’re being put on hold everywhere. Even on the computer-help chat rooms, I’m put “on hold” sometimes for 30 minutes– which isn’t so bad because while waiting I can play Solitaire and read the latest entertainment pages. [...]

Lily Tomlin was electrifying at the Paramount Theater! I’ve never really known her one-woman shows or really appreciated the Laugh-In clips I’ve seen. I’m sure some of you are groaning, “Sigh, it was before his time!” I can relate. I groan at people born after 1980 who don’t know or appreciate Rogers and Hammerstein or [...]

Sanjaya Malakar on American Idol makes little girls cry… and the judges (especially when Paula is spaced out)… and America. He kind of reminds me of an Asian Indian version of Michael Jackson. All the girls scream and cry because “He’s so sensitive and sweet!”
I like Sanjaya. Okay, he isn’t the greatest thing since [...]

Penny pinching is no longer just a memory of the ’30s and the Great Depression. When gasoline and milk flirt with $3/gallon, Elsie the cow is going to be a billionaire but not able to afford to drive around in her Rolls Royce. She’s going to have to walk to moooooove along.

Weight lifting used to be a passion of mine. As a “petite” Asian man, I used to be very self-conscious about my size. In elementary school, I was always chosen last to join a team in physical education. Even Gigi, a four-pound girl, was chosen before me (okay, I made that part up, but it [...]
