Dr. Phil, huh? I watch every day while I peddle my exercise bike and after four years of watching him I still don't have the words to describe my relationship with the show. Much of the time I'm so enraged I can peddle with furious energy and that's good for my health. He is self-congratulatory and that bothers me almost as much as the problems being presented. I also know that even though he has great personal wealth, the services provided to his guests are paid for by the organizations he's sending them to (Turnabout Ranch, etc.). And it bugs me when his solution is Dr On Demand or one of the many books he himself has written. I often wish I had someone to discuss the shows with though, so perhaps I should encourage you to keep watching?
I don't pay attention to NY politics and didn't realize Curtis Sliwa was running. I know his name from the Guardian Angels but have no idea if he's still involved or if they still exist. Do they?
Glad to hear Chemo isn't being too awful (and that you were able to keep your appointment)!
