“I’m a girl and by me that’s only great. I enjoy being a girl!” Go, Flower Drum Song! In that Rogers & Hammerstein song, Nancy Kwan sings about all the great things women get to do that are fun and sassy. I tell you, the ladies have all the fun: hair, makeup, shoes, clothes-and […]
Do rich people rely on Medicare? It seems to me the way the US government keeps trying to cut Medicare, the answer is, “Of course not, Buffy and Skippy!” Chortle, chortle, nasal honk. “Now where did I put my yacht?”
Senior citizens tend to have the most need for healthcare, and the demand on Medicare […]

“We Are Family, I got all my sisters with me. Get up everybody and sing!” Go, Sister Sledge!! (Where are they now?)
Family is something so powerful, so encompassing, so-ah, complicated. The Partridge Family never had major conflict even though the show started on the premise of the death of Mr. Partridge. Wait a […]
“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. […]
Dying is so dreaded by most people that I wonder why we have so many expressions for it, like “I’m dying for a cold drink,” or “I’d rather die than wear black shoes with a white belt!”
With all the talk about dying, you might think it would be easy to discuss it with […]

Michael J. Fox and I have some similarities! Okay, besides the fact that we are both short, we were both born in Canada! Yes, I was practically born in a little igloo in Canada before we moved to the US.
Let’s face it, we all love Canadians. As far as I know, there […]

“We Are Family, I got all my sisters with me. Get up everybody and sing!”
Go, Sister Sledge! (But where are they now?)
Family is something so powerful, so encompassing, so– ah, complicated. The Partridge Family never had major conflict even though the show started with the death of Mr. Partridge. Wait a minute, even […]

Some senior citizens suffer. My parents are in their 70s. My mother still can’t use a VCR– not that it matters, because now they have a DVD player– which she can’t figure out either. They have cell phones– but for emergency use only– and they can’t figure out how to set up their voice mail.

Steve Carell has a hard life. I’m sure he got seasick on the Ark while filming Evan Almighty in Crozet. In his NBC show The Office, he’s as clueless as Alicia Silverstone in Clueless. In Anchorman, he had only three– at best four– brain cells.
But in reality he’s very well educated. He went to […]
I’ve always been the shortest guy– in school, among my friends, among my colleagues. In my medical school class picture, I’m standing in the front. No one wants to play volleyball with me because I can’t spike the ball. I have to have all my pants altered because no one makes 29/29 pants. Everything in […]
