Wow. MySonTheDoctor says marijuana is a miracle drug. He cannot touch it for obvious reasons, but he totally approves of its use.

OH UNCA WALT ! I barely passed eighth grade, much less medical school and I knew it was a miracle drug from the first joint of something high end of my older Brother and meat ball pizza xtra cheese..lol
Funny I got introduced to it from one Brother and my older one, I would visit him in his apt in law school with his roommate who now is a federal judge .I am the only one and my nephews do when with me. Funny, how some people don't smoke anymore until it's in front of them...

Thanks for the kind thoughts, Boo. All the docs claim it'll take six months or so to be completely healed up from it, but that gives me something to shoot for.

More I think about it,( of course no offense meant )( got to start with a disclaimer !) Not so sure i would confer with Boo about dentistry at all!
His area in expertise goes far in dentistry ,but his methods may not be for you ....

Funny ,when you talk about dentistry I would tell my dentist I would like to be met at the door with sweet air.
Now ,I, as well as everyone here is a smoker ,most are not dabblers .Most of what we smoke would cripple most folks. So as ripped as i get i can still walk and chew gum and do math and other than my eyes pretty much just as quick. I keep telling the dr to increase the vol of sweet air and tellin jokes ,on que ,just as quick because being stoned out side in the presence of others does not make my heart skip a beat. He would say Joe any more and Im gonna stop your heart !

It treats/prevents cancer in many forms. But hospitals today are run by Corporations, not doctors.

Those who think doctors have choices regarding masks, etc., just are not aware of the facts. Because of the litiginous setup in this country*** ALL DOCTORS are now salaried employees of Corporations.

***Why? Well... what doctor can afford a CATscan machine and 20 other similar multi-million-dollar things only found in horsepistols? NONE, obviously. But if a doctor wants to be able to have a patient get X-rayed, CATscanned, etc, etc, he must be accredited at that hospital before he can send any patient there.

Trying to go it alone is historical stuff. That scene no longer exists. And any independent doctor would not last very long before the lawyers attacked for not giving the patient the tests/treatment they "should have had". <-- Litiginous society backed by huge Corporations that control the law.

BTW: Did you wear a mask? That was the Corporations telling YOU what you will do no matter who you are and where you are. If you felt you had to obey -- and DID obey -- what then, is the justification for your problem with doctors obeying? Pot/kettle. And your risk was infinitely less.

To get accredited at a horsepital, you must sign up at the horsepital as an employee. And you follow the rules of that horsepitol or you get canned or arrested or both.

He would have lost his license -- or worse -- for saving his patients by sneaking them the "horse dewormer" cure. (no one ever died of YukFlu under his care)

IN SUM: It ain't the doctors. They no longer have any real say. They do NOT push Corporate/Big Pharma pharmaceuticals for their profit like some unthinking assholes assert. They must do as they are told, period.

That is why the doctors have been quitting (at a rate of 6:1 ratio of experienced leaving vs replacement "physicians") -- and are being replaced by new hire Med School grads into a profession that requires decades of experience to get to a really competent level like Board Certified. The medical profession is crashing and burning.

There it is.

There it is -- **IF** he is a doctor today. He works for a salary today. Period. He has no choice due to the lawyers/litigation.

TRIVIA TO DRIVE THE POINT HOME: There are more lawyers in Fort Lauderdale alone than there are in all of JAPAN. Think about it. They all eat regular, and drive nice cars. Don't even think of New York City.

interesting because there are times he is thrown a bone to work some other hospital .He was one in 5 who did some thing in the desert with emergency care .Really dont know.He is also the kid to spend 20 minutes on the phone and with that he installs a post lite 55 feet away from the house .He did all the finances and I think it was 250k. Anything deeper into medicine then so does the cost to get that.

Morning all.


That breaks my heart. Our cat is 20 years old and has a tumor over her left eye. Vet says she is to old to put her under and have it removed. We drain it about once a month.

Hope things go well at the Doc Ness. My doctor retired this year leaving me to having to find a new one.


Mrs Pute has a dentist appointment later today. We still have a real dentist..and lucky to have her. We both still have our teeth. We take good care of them...no implants for us.

Fed just raised interest rates again...oh joy!!!!
