“It taste great doc! I don’t even drink on that Henn anymore. You should try it; taste better than any margarita I’ve ever had.  Just give me a cream soda or some fruit punch, mix it with that purple, and it’s on!”    This was only part of a conversation I had with a patient […]

This week in politics was primarily a lull in the action, with most of the presidential thunder stolen by the landmark 4,000th death in Iraq and the explosion of violence in the region.     With John “Bomb, bomb, bomb Iran” McCain telling us the surge is working, the evidence has loudly overruled the Senator […]

What’s good fat smashers? I’m fresh from a slight vacation. I was feeling a little burnt out lately and an opportunity presented itself so I could take a couple of days off.   I had to head up to Toronto, Canada to DJ for the Raptors’ Chris Bosh’s birthday party.    Now, Toronto is like a […]
