I always like the Red Green line:

"Those three little words that are so hard for men to say: 'I don't know'."

Dr. Phil is an evil presence. Just what we need in America with everything else that's going on. Pop psychologist Dr. Putz spouts off as if God is speaking through him. I'll stop before I tell you how I really feel.

Well, I realize that there are seven words in the phrase that I fear.











Guess how much money I saved us?

Whenever a female starts a paragraph with those words, you know that it has just cost you.

I see nothing wrong with that statement. My wife has been been saving us to prosperity for over 35 years.

I see him as Jerry Springer with out the beads and a little more civilized bunch of guests. Lots of sensationalism and quick fix "therapy." Reminds me of a MAD TV skit with Bob Newheart as a psychologist whose therapy was to yeall at his patient, "Stop it."

As far as Red Green goes, I prefer, "If the women don't find you handsome, at least they should find you handy."

Between Dr. Phil and Red Green, I prefer the Canadian. And my favorite line is the Man's prayer.

"I am a man, but I can change, if I have to, I guess."

But you have to admit, Dr, Phil does attack some wickedly weird problems with common sense and a "no prisoners taken" attitude. I liked his program on "Boomerang Kids". They leave home, go to college and then come back to live off the parents. His answer was a moving van and a boot.

Then there are the other paragons of mono name knowledge and virtue; Madonna, Cher, etc...
Let's not forget the flip side of that coin though - Aristotle, Socrates, Plato, Hippocrates, Democritus, and all those other guys that liked to dress up in sheets.
