Why Men Aren’t Depressed

April 26th, 2011

WHY MEN ARE SELDOM DEPRESSED:

Men are just happier people –
What do you expect from such simple creatures?

The garage is all yours.
Wedding plans take care of themselves
Chocolate is just another snack. [Read more →]

for those of you who have been told “there’s nothing wrong with you because your labs are all normal…”

January 4th, 2011

THE SYNTHROID SONG by Perry Ross
(sung to the tune of “Home on the Range”)
Oh give me a jab,
send the tubes to the lab,
The results will come back then we’ll see,
The numbers will show,
All that we need to know,
Oh I so hope that they all will be…
(chorus)
In The Normal Range,
Though my symptoms are not better yet,
My throat’s got a frog,
and my brain’s in a fog,
But my doctor just bought a Corvette.

Oh please let me be,
Where the labs all agree,
Oh yes, that is where I wish to dwell,
My doc says to stick,
with the arithmetic,
And don’t worry about whether I’m well.
(chorus)
In The Normal Range,
Not over, nor under a bit
Your numbers are fine,
so it’s all in your mind,
Even though you’re still feeling like shcrap.

Why did the chicken cross the road?

October 4th, 2007

DR. PHIL:
The problem we have here is that this chicken needs to GET REAL and realize that he must first deal with the problem on “THIS” side of the road before it goes after the problem on the “OTHER SIDE” of the road. What we need to do is help him realize how stupid he’s acting by not taking on his “CURRENT” problems before adding “NEW” problems.

Simple but effective home remedies and advice from the Internet

July 18th, 2005

(to be read with tongue firmly in cheek)

  1. If you are choking on an ice cube, don’t panic. Simply pour a cup of boiling water down your throat and presto! The blockage will be almost instantly removed.

  2. Clumsy? Avoid cutting yourself while slicing vegetables by getting someone else to hold them while you chop away.

  3. Men: avoid arguments with the Mrs. about lifting the toilet seat by simply using the sink.

  4. For high blood-pressure sufferers: just cut yourself and bleed for a few minutes, thus reducing the pressure in your veins. Remember to use a timer.

  5. A mousetrap, placed on top of your alarm clock, will prevent you from rolling over and going back to sleep after you hit the snooze button.

  6. If you have a bad cough, take a large dose of laxatives, then you will be afraid to cough.

  7. Have a bad toothache? Smash your thumb with a hammer and you will forget all about the toothache.
