“I’m hairy noon and night. Hair that’s a fright. I’m hairy high and low. Don’t ask me why. Don’t know” (Hair, the musical).
At my school, Denison University, when we produced Hair, they actually had a nude scene, though the lights were spinning all over the place, and I could tell a bum bum […]

Sunburn makes me realize how often people slap me. “Hey mate!” Slap on the singed shoulder. “Can you believe that!” Slap on the red thigh. “Give me a hug!” Slap Slap Slap on the burned back.
Remember on I Love Lucy when sunburned Lucy wore a tweed dress on the runway? She walked like domo […]

Injuries can be the kiss of death to an athlete. When Nancy Kerrigan got konked on the knee before the Olympics, her scream was the whine heard ’round the world: “Why me? Why me?” (A normal person would have just yelled, “Ow!”) On the other hand, golfer Ben Hogan almost died in a 1949 […]

Sweaty hands? Feel the pressure? When I was younger, I used to sweat at the drop of a hat. In high school, I was in a show choir, “The Top 20.” One dreaded night just before a performance, I ripped my pants in a bad place, but in Ethel Merman style, the show must […]

Gold medals are gold for a reason. However, my skating coach said to me, “Competing is not about winning a medal. It’s about doing your best.” I replied, “If medals aren’t important, then why are they so shiny?” They aren’t made of tin or stone.
So somehow I came up with the crazy idea to […]

Cooking is an art form. When I was a medical student, I didn’t know how to cook. Everything I made was either a salad or a sandwich. One time I invited my now partner-in-life to dinner. I served a baked potato, but I didn’t have any butter– so I did what Martha Stewart would do– […]

The Beatles sang a great song, “Here Comes the Sun.” I love the sun; it makes a gray day… well, sunny. “Sunny, thank you for the sunshine in my life…”
Regardless of how much we love the sun, skin cancer is on the rise. So a rock group like No Doubt needs to come up with […]
“How dry I am…”
Is that song about alcohol, hair, or skin? When I was a medical resident, a fun dermatologist (who cussed like a sailor) gave us a lecture. He said that in the winter time, dry skin is very common. He called it “winter’s rash.” His solution to the problem of dry skin was […]
