I know, I know – the window for my Osama assassination prediction is rapidly closing – and it’s not like I want him to die – especially not now that he’s picked Joe Biden as his running mate.  I figure these two can really kick some ass for the next 8 years – particularly with […]

Mia Lee? (Li??)  What a very strange looking woman to put on TV.  I’m not sure I can supply appropriate animal or monster movie comparisons to describe this scalpel product.  I think her plastic surgeon should have his license revoked.  And how on this earth does Dr. Phil keep pulling it off?  I thought for

I’m getting back into the saddle again!  It’s quite difficult for Cancers to go through major changes, and maintain their equilibrium.  We’re used to the rhythm of the tides.  If we go against them – we can get quite off-kilter. So, I feel like I may indeed make this Sunday’s deadline.  Publisher Arash (having just

What do you do when you finally get the confirmation that your son is smoking pot?  Particularly when you used to smoke it; his mother smokes it; and, his older brother may-or-may-not still smoke it!? Since I quit smoking the whacky-tabacky way-back-when – it was actually 1987 when one of my patients woke me out

From an early age – my German heritage was imprinted upon me.  My Mother reminds me that we spoke German exclusively at home until I started Kindergarden and requested that she talk to me in English – so I didn’t stick out like a Swastika in the neighborhood.  But my attempt at American assimilation failed

I used to enjoy driving.  I’d get into any one of the cars I’ve owned over the years and take to the road – enjoying the unique driving experience that each car afforded.  I even enjoyed driving in L.A. for many years – because the freeways aren’t always constipated; nor are some-of-those special back roads.

Sorry Readers…I had a big home move this week and couldn\’t think or write. I will be back next week! 

And here I thought we were in the throes of a recession: what with the housing market and sub-prime loan fiasco; companies closing their doors  — laying off thousands; and, banks cutting off credit!  But the other day, I went to a real, old-fashioned, California backyard barbecue —  that had all-of-the-fixings one would expect from
