Dr. Grumpy: "Any problems on the new medication?"

A Blog detailing the insanity of my medical practice and the stupidity of everyday life.
Mr. Von Braun: "I can raise the missile, but can't launch a warhead."
Welcome to my whining!
This blog is entirely for entertainment purposes. All posts about patients, or my everyday life, or anything else may be fictional, or be my experience, or were submitted by a reader, or any combination of the above. Factual statements may or may not be accurate. I could be making all this up. I may not even be a doctor. The only true statement on here is that I probably drink more Diet Coke than you do. A lot more.

My husband's father saw fit to show him his Viagra when my husband visited them. Because everybody wants to know that his dad can still raise the missile.
This is the same father who offered to let my husband, who was then my boyfriend, and me share their shower in the master bath. "[My wife] and I shower together all the time," he boasted. I almost threw up.
Bet he can't find the right button either :-(

OMG, I fell off the chair laughing at that one! Just wondering how it is you did not do the same?
Years of practice.
A friend of mine once did a stand-up comedy routine on our campus (he's actually quite good). One of his bits stemmed from the fact that his father was...well, a rocket scientist. A real one.
But while an excellent scientist, he struggled when it came to delivering "the talk" to his son.
So, as my friend noted, "He could program a missile so it would land within a thirty-foot radius on a target thousands of miles away. But when it came to delivering MY payload...."
