Good vibes? Bad vibes? Don’t we all have a sixth sense at times? The problem is that sometimes we don’t listen to our inner voice. We follow a slick vibe, like investing in Enron or hanging out with people who are more toxic than Love Canal in the ’70s.
I watched a movie with Naomi [...]

Chopped liver? When we feel undervalued, we sometimes ask, “What am I– chopped liver?” I don’t think the liver should be referenced as something undervalued, as it’s a vital organ that filters the junk in our blood. (Too bad it doesn’t filter the emotional vomit on today’s blogs and in those with [...]

When I was a kid, I used to read everything from Spider-Man to X-Men, but Iron Man was never one of my favorite comic book heroes. Who would have imagined in years to come that all these superheroes’ stories would become blockbuster movies? I guess it’s like Bonnie Tyler’s hit song, “I Need a [...]
Pineapple upside down cake was something I had never experienced until my TV news producer asked me to talk about Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD) with a cookbook author. I had never heard of this cook (her name escapes me– well, more likely the trauma created by her has caused a mental block. For artistic [...]

POP is such a powerful word. You want things to visually POP out, like a bright tie in contrast to a dark shirt. For my webpage design, I used Opti-POP to make such I wouldn’t be ignored like Glen Close in Fatal Attraction. As a kid, I loved my [...]

“Got Milk?” is probably one of the best ads ever. The milk mustache, though, is kind of weird to see on supermodels and athletes. But then again, as I get older I see that I’m starting to spill food and miss my mouth more often when I eat and drink. (Why does this happen [...]

What a gas! How did that expression ever come about? Maybe it’s because all of have flatulence every day (i.e. we fart). One reader told me his mother said, “Fart is a four-letter word. We ‘toot’ instead.”
Few people understand the terms flatulence or passing gas, and almost everyone knows fart. Does that make [...]

Nausea and vomiting is such a horrible feeling and experience and can be due to many reasons. I discuss some causes of nausea and vomiting in this video.
“I think I’m going to throw up,” should be a mantra for most Americans. Audits make most people throw up (and tax evaders throw up [...]

“I think I’m going to throw up,” should be a mantra for most Americans. Audits make most people throw up (and tax evaders throw up their hands as they’re arrested). Most country music makes me nauseated (don’t take offense, country music fans; most people hate my show tunes).
Getting insurance pre-authorization for medicine makes my [...]

“Let Go and Let God” is an expression I’ve heard for a couple of decades. I still haven’t mastered it. Actually, I can’t really say I’m trying to master it. Well, really… oh, never mind. The point is that some things are just out of our control, like the weather, traffic, and Lindsay Lohan. [...]
Hypochondria is a horrible thing. One of my best friends suffers from it – – although it’s getting better each year. I didn’t realize he suffered from hypochondria when initially he kept thinking he had testicular cancer. What he had was a groin pull. In his head it was definitely testicular cancer, and it [...]

Heidi Klum, former supermodel and host of Project Runway, says, “In fashion, one day you’re in, the next you’re out.” She’s right— look at designer Isaac Mizrahi. One day he was in Nieman Marcus; now he’s in Target.
In his documentary, Unzipped, Mizrahi introduced us to the world of high fashion and dealing with supermodels like [...]

Rosie O’Donnell and Donald Trump need to hash it out more so they can continue to irritate America! C’mon, Donald! You’re a rich successful man and, yes, your last name is “Trump, but you’re acting more like Donald Duck.
Lionel Ritchie needs to hash it out with his daughter, Nicole. Personally, I wouldn’t [...]
Pharmaceutical representatives, a.k.a. pharm reps, tend to be a bit pushy because they have only seven seconds on average to talk to a doctor. I know you can say a lot in seven seconds because I’ve always been a fast talker, like Charo. On the TV news at NBC29, I usually recite the disease name, [...]

My office coordinator says to me, “Someone comes in for a cold, rash, or hangnail, and they leave with an order for a screening colonoscopy.” I say to her, “I also order mammograms, do PAP smears, check prostates, and do other health maintenance things– don’t those count?”
Are colonoscopies that dreaded? Should the name be [...]
One of my friends said I write and talk about poop better than anyone else he knows. Is that a compliment or an insult? I learned in college there are three sacred things in life: eat, sleep, and poop.
Let’s face it: our lives revolve around bowel movements. If you don’t poop enough, you get [...]

Remember Carly Simon’s song, “Anticipation”? I never heard of the song until Heinz Ketchup used it in a commercial. (In the commercial, the anticipation of eating the food slathered in ketchup was worth the wait.)
When it comes to a bowel movement, for most people, constipation is not a fun way to experience anticipation. In [...]
