To your health.

    The doctor writes me a letter. Hmmm? He's a relatively young man  from my perspective. He's not quite fifty. The short of it is, find a new doctor ,I quit. Imediately a quiver sets in my liver and I make an appointment during his last week. I shudder at the thought of going back to my previous witchdoctor and I'm curious. . He tells me he can no longer afford staying in business. Ain't no money in doctorin'. Who knew? I offer him a position in my carpentry firm.
    From a lifestyle perspective, we all need good medicine. I see a professional whenever there's something stuck in my eye or have a cough that lasts more than three or four months. Insist that your health care provider uses only genuine turtle shell rattles and the powdered cat bone powder she blows into your face is from only a black cat that died at midnight. No generics for me thanks.

  1. Dear smoothstar,

    Your cogent analysis of the healthcare situation is remarkable for both its brevity and pusillanimity. But you sidestep the crucial question: Have you finally decided to do something about the flesh-eating virus you've been hoping would "work itself out?" And if so, how.

    Warm regards in this holiday season.

  2. Mad River Glen offers its own rollback day on Jan. 25, when tickets will cost what they did in 1949 when the mountain opened for business: $3.50.
