Sometimes, the meaning of college or university degrees can be
misinterpreted.

A few (very few, thankfully) patients of mine who perhaps did not get
the
"magical results" they were expecting think my 3 degrees, BS, MS, and
PhD
stand
for Bull****, More****, and Piled Higher and Deeper.

(Since public profanity has now been popularized by our Vice president,
Dick
"Haliburton" Cheney, and by inference by John Kerry's wife, Teresa, who
recently told a reporter badgering her to "Shove it", I figure I'm ok
with
a
little profanity here

True story - I was watching John Kerry's nomination acceptance speech
last
night on CNN - live, of course. At the end of the speech, thousands of
balloons hanging up in the ceilings were supposed to be released
simultaneously. Apparently, something went wrong, and they came
trickling
down
very slowly. The convention director, who had an open microphone
picked
up by
CNN, started screaming "Where are the balloons. I need balloons." and
as
his
frustration mounted, through an open mike screamed "Where the f**k are
the
balloons?". All live, as in the good old days - LOL !!! Needless to
say,
the
CNN anchors tried to apologize, but it was obvious they enjoyed it -
LOL.

Let the Republicans top that - LOL !!!


I think the same thing happened to the Democrats before during the
Dukakis
convention.










That could be. Somehow, whenever I think of Dukakis, I think of those
silly
pictures of him in a tank.
