“Doctor in the House”

My dad’s column made Jay Leno last night.

As part of his “Headlines” series, he held up a recent column headlined: “Medical profession focuses too much on making people well.”  As always, Jay had no comment.  This is probably the 10th time that one of dad’s pithy headlines (he doesn’t make them up, really) has appeared [...]

iPhone, noPhone

I went out and bought a BlackBerry 8330 (also known as the “Curve”) yesterday.
Coming from a Macaholic like myself, you may be wondering why. The answer is simple, really: AT&T sucks.
I would have waited, of course, to buy the contract-free iPhone.  That would’ve put me back $600.  Then, I would have had to pay [...]
