Therapy Versus Euthanization

Question:

My dog seems to have a controlling personality. Should I seek help and try medication to help him sort through his odd ways or what?

Answer:

If your dog spends too much time on his own he may resort to creating an invisible play mate so he won't feel so alone. There are a few solutions that might benefit your dog such as providing him with a mate, someone he can learn to play with during the times you are away, or you might consider working from home to spare him from seperation anxiety.

Many breeds are prone to vivid imaginations and can create something out of nothing as seen in the following video.

Marriage Versus Courtship

Question:

Will marriage end the delightful times of courtship?

Answer:

Often times things do change as relationships progress. Sometimes it is better not to tie the knot, but simply carry on in a care free manner. Below is what can happen when boredom sets in.

Here we see true love during courtship. It can have that anytime, anywhere kind of love fest that is found during periods where there is no pressure, no expectations, no strings attached.

When you add the responsibilities of maintaining a long term relationship such as marriage, the stress can often lead to arguments and tension that cannot be resolved by sex alone.

Many times, long term relationships end up becoming very flat when the excitment of new love wanes so you should carefully consider all aspects of committing to a life long relationship.

Too Much Time On Your Hands

Question:

I've been alone with my dog for so long is it possible that we are starting to not only look alike-we're starting to sound alike. Am I the only one with too much time on my hands?

Answer:

You are definitly not alone when it comes to companionship overload with an animal, although taking up an outside hobby might be wise at this time.

For many folks across the country it can be their only contact in their solitary world. After all everyone needs somebody to talk to on occasion.

So you won't feel too alone, watch this video made by other dog owners with too much time on their hands.

TIT-illating Not So Uncommon

Question:

Do boobs really titillate a mans senses or is it just a reconnection with his mother?

Answer:

Sometimes the issue of boobs can be a 'long' story, especially for anyone who has nursed a baby or two.

Men have always been fascinated by the glam glands and have never kept that a secret. Most overtly stare when they find a pair that appeal to them and so they should because a nice pair of boobs is worth appreciating. They have long since lost their fear of being smacked by those they openly ogle and some even long for the smack (pain and pleasure theory).

What you have to ask yourself is this, does the entire mammary gland appeal to you or is it just the nipple?

If it's the entire breast, then you're a reasonably normal male who can be dropped to the knees at the sight of cleavage, however, if it is specifically the nipple you desire, you're most likely longing to pick up the phone and call your mother.

Breast feeders across the nation suffer from what many experts qualify as separation anxiety. You spent many months suckling on your mothers breast so it's no wonder that many men are still fascinated by the wiggling, jiggling milk bags.

Women also appreciate breasts whether they are straight or gay. Celebrities have often evened the playing field by posing naked for magazine covers, thus perpetuating this infatuation.

For a more indepth look at who appreciates their own boobs, watch the following video. [Don't forget to turn the sound up]

Bloggers Unite For Peace

One Day Blog Silence



BUT...

it is not the silence that unites us, it is the words spoken over and over by billions of people around the world every day who hope one day we can find a peaceful place to co-exist.

The words are for victims everywhere in the world, for soldiers who need our voice because they are couragiously working in silence, for victims of senseless violence, for abused children too young to stand up for themselves, for battered wives who've lost hope, for students now afraid to attend school, for people seaching for a better life outside the realm of their borders.

Yes, pictures speak a thousand words but a voice speaks volumes.

SILENCE=DEATH

Stress Can Be Relieved Harmlessly

Question:

I'm feeling extremely stressed out at the moment. Is there something I can do to relieve what's boiling up inside?

Answer:

Every one of us has daily stress factors that alter our everyday lives.

In this day and age it's not uncommon to find ones plate full and then some but, what do you do about it. Usually we go back for seconds and even thirds to feel like we've accomplished something as each day passes.

Striving to 'do-it-all' and achieve goals too quickly can often dampen the glory of the win but, if you pace yourself, you might just find that you will accomplish the same goal without putting so much emphasis on the time frame.

If there is no way to avoid situations that put the binders on your emotions, look for ways to relax when you have a spare moment. Sex or masturbation are sure ways to release endorphins that usually will cause your body to let down for a moment and give you a little 'piece' of mind.

You can also turn off the television, put down the newspaper and avoid world news that is far too disturbing to digest. Cognitive centers will hold painful information far longer than that which we perceive as pleasant so avoid things that disturb you.

If it's housework that's got you overwhelmed, put it off for a day or two. Forget the fact that your laundry pile may have taken on a life of it's own. Wear a crinkled up dirty shirt and tell people it's linen. If it's the kids that have got you spiraling out of control, send them packing to a friends house for a night (or a week if you can get away with that).

If you need something more tangible to do immediately then you might want to watch this video that I previously posted on my other site The Not So News. It's sure to make you laugh, which in turn should help you release some pent up stress.

Booze Can Ruin Childhood

Question:

How early can alcoholism begin?

Answer:

Without a doubt, drinking is almost always promoted by parents worldwide as early as infancy.

From the moment a child born it's forced to suck back as much liquid as possible both by breast and bottle.

No studies have been conducted as of yet on the adverse effects of such early training but in this video it's clear to see that the early onset of binge drinking can have devastating lifelong affects.

(Footnote: Pearl, now 24 months, is now a recovering alcoholic and attends daily AA meetings)

Wife May End Procrastination

Question:

I have so many things to do and I don't know where to start. It seems like I'm always behind in everything. What do I do?

Answer:

First of all, if you get the urge to procrastinate, just put it off!

Try to remember that you are not alone when it comes to staying current with everyday chores such as laundry, paying bills, taking care of a family, preparing meals, picking up dry cleaning, getting to work on time, picking up the dog from the groomers, getting the kids to and from school, organizing your office or even something as mundane as unloading the clean dishes from the dishwasher so the dirty ones in the kitchen sink can take their place. Yes...the list can be endless!

In the fast paced world that we live in, it's easy to let things pile up until they become overwhelming. Sometimes this makes us feel 'let down' about ourselves because we're always reading about people who are so busy, but, manage to pull everything off and get everything done in a timely manner. What we don't do is read between the lines of their life.

Many of these so called 'doers' have people. Yes, maids, drivers, assistants, nannies, chef's, accountants or WIVES. If you cannot afford people, your best bet would be to find a wife who would eliminate your need to even think about these daily chores thus allowing you to concentrate strictly on bringing home the bacon.

Dealing With Grief

Question:



Answer:

Life does not always work out the way you think it should. People come and go in our lives and although we experience great sadness we are usually pretty freaking glad that it's not us that has passed.

As for this picture, I think the moral of the story is that we should always make sure our plate is full before we get fried. Live life to the fullest!

Where Have I Been You Wonder???

First of all for the record, getting a new site off the ground is always tedious and requires a lot of patience. I am willing to wait and not pain over not having traffic. This site is for fun and I refuse to let it put pressure on me like my Not So News site that I felt I had to post on everyday for more than a year.

Secondly, since I received nary a single question, which by the way is very assuring because this leads me to believe that all is well with the world, I decided to take on the remodelling of my entire back yard as a way of providing my own sorry ass with a little physical therapy.

I have taken on this project with only a little help from a few people because to make things level two people are needed. I also contracted a plumber to run a gas line out to what will eventually become the hub of the back yard...our glorious fire pit. I think in the long run, doing all the work myself, we will have saved several thousand dollars in labor and I will have re-developed muscles that once, in my younger day were predominantly displayed.


This ugly old wall has been hidden by trees and vines for years and once uncovered became even uglier. Everything came out and when all was said and done I questioned whether or not it was the right decision. Once I got moving it started to improve thought and a sense of satisfaction started to invade my wondering mind.




All of this dirt, which has not seen a lick of water in forever had to be turned and a lot of it moved to other parts of the yard to get a level playing field so to speak.




Now, with a new facade along the top (bamboo from which I received eight million tiny slivers from) I can live with the wall. And yes, that is my celebrity husband swinging the pick. (of course he quit after he realized that this type of work makes you break a sweat) The plants, bolganvia, will eventually cover the wall creating a span of color like you will only see in California.




As you can see, exiting the house to the back yard has not been an option since we removed the unsightly wimpy two steps that were here when we bought this house some twenty years ago. I don't know why we waited so long to do something about it but during this remodel they have undergone a major transformation.




Now, where those ugly two stairs sat, are a beautiful replacement that I will tile with travertine begining Wednesday next week. Building these took a lot of braun because all the conrete mix (a dump truck full) had to be dumped in my front yard on the driveway. That meant many back breaking 100 yard trips to transport it to where it needed to be.




This is my friend Jim the plumber putting the finishing touched on the gas line. It was a labor of love and when he lit it for the first time my heart beat quickened and I knew that everything would go smoothly from there. The pit had to be done to accept the solid limestone top that will be set in place by 5 or 6 sweating (hopefully good looking studs) on Monday afternoon.




This is what you will not see once the top goes on. Okay so it may not seem like this would be a tough project but it took me a good part of an entire day plus an extra scoop of concrete mix, which only got delivered because I went there in person wearing a tiny little tank top. Mixing concrete ( in a wheelbarrel by hand) is not for the faint of heart.


Just in case you don't think I'm actually doing the work, here I am in the flesh removing the last of the dirt before I can lay the sand. Although it is not a flattering picture I can assure that that is really a wet t-shirt. LOL!



And last but not least, my helper. For nearly every shovel full of dirt I dug so did my yard guard Miles. I think he had a blast out there with me, pulling roots out of the ground and eating everything he wasn't supposed to including a lot of dirt.

Whose The Fool Now

As you know, today is April Fool's Day.

This means that you should use caution when listening to people, especially me. While none of what I have to say will lead to detrimental circumstances, be advised that you should use my advise sparingly and with a good sense of humor.

While I try to give my best shot advising people on how to deal with serious life issues, there may be some advise that is worthy of walking away from as fast as you can in order to eliminate any possible embarrassing situations!

The Doctor will be back in the office tomorrow so don't forget to leave me a question!

Underwear Dilemma May Lead To Wise Cracks

Question:

Dear Dr. J,

I have a friend who developed a habit of pulling his underwear out of his fanny socket without realizing he's doing it. I developed...I mean, my friend developed this habit as a young boy. You see, he played baseball and every time he threw the ball (which was a lot, I was...he was a pitcher) his undies would get to riding in his bunny slice. Well, before you know it, he was doing it all the time, even when my underwear wasn't riding! It's very embarrassing for him now that I'm an...he's an adult. Is there some kind of meditation that will help him through this embarrassing habit? Or should he embrace it as a unique selling proposition for being my...his friend?

Sincerely,

Not Nick Badway, but someone else.

Anwser:

Well hello there not Nick Badway. Your dilemma is one that affects a great number of people around the world so don't ever feel like you're alone in this not so abnormal behavior.

Studies suggest there are millions of others who wonder, and often question their usually ill-timed choice about removing that uncomfortable cloth build up from the crack of their ass. One study found that it usually affects more of the male population than the female. This ultimately could be the result of women's fashion trends, which prohibit the wearing of conventional underpants ((or Granny pants as they are often referred to)) that, not only skew how material drapes across the curve of the ass, but also cause bulges where there should be none ((muffing tops, saddle bags)), all things that 'most' women strive to avoid at all cost.

That is why the undergarment industry has profited greatly from the manufacturing of the thong. Wearing one of these is not likely a good option for you because it would only exasperate your current situation.

The issue of removing your undies from the folds of your buttocks ((or bunny slice as you, or rather, your friend would call it)) can pose many problems depending on where, when, and how often this occurs because of who is in the immediate area.

It is not often openly discussed, but, since you are reaching out to see whether or not it will lead to complications in life or offer some kind of unique benefit we shall look at it in detail.

It is often though of as rude to displace the pesky material while in public places and is ranked equally as high as public nose picking. ((Oh yes, we've all been witness to that, especially while stuck in rush hour traffic on the freeway where people just assume that they will never see you again in this life so they go booger diving with great finess.)) Both of these habits often command comments from total strangers, some of which you should be grateful you cannot hear. It can also lead to an undo amount of laundry to remove skid marks based on the underwears proximity to any kind of accidental discharge. If your spouse/partner is the one responsible for laundry chores you may end up suffering from ugly glares and comments when your dirty little secret is discovered.

However, given your 'friend's' situation, and I have to assume that he is wearing boxers that tend to have far too much material gathering in the area of the crack, especially when rising from a sitting position, or, he is wearing tighty whities that have lost their elasticity, a simple solution would be to purchase new underwear that are slightly tighter than normal. This would eliminate the material from venturing into areas that cause you to constantly be grabbing at your ass. This would only be necessary should you feel the urge to discontinue this vulgar...I mean bad habit.

But, because you say you don't mind doing this, in fact you seem to derive some kind of sick pleasure from it and have continued to use this tactic your entire life, I suggest that when the urge hits you...you play that age old children's game of "if I can't see you--you can't see me". When the urge arises...just begin to hum loudly, place one hand over your eyes and use the other to dig the material out. That way you will never hear the tsk's or see the look of disgust on people's faces when they witness it.

Waxing Your Wood Diminishes Blog Addiction

Question:

What can you prescribe for a case of serious Blog withdrawal? You see, I used to have this advice site (*LOVE* your new format, by the way) but life got in the way. Now I'm reduced to living in real time, talking live with people right there in front of me? What's a propeller head to do?

Answer:

First of all Andrew...er...propeller head, it's wonderful to hear from you. We were all saddened by the demise of the wonderful advice column you penned for such a long time. You can find some comfort knowing that many of your fans/clients/friends suffer right along side you as you continue to make your way through cyber addiction withdrawl symptoms. (Use caution if you visit this site...You may end up with some real good advice that will be honest, truthful and cheap)

Keeping your hands busy during the hours you would normally have spent sitting at your keyboard typing endless advice (I'm assuming you did ths during the evening hours after work) is key in your recovery.

I have a suggestion for you that might just take your mind off the missing key strokes.

First off, I think physical release is a priority when pent up tension begins to painfully rear it's ugly head leaving you feeling... well... let's just call it...blue.

Waxing your wood can go along way in getting that pinched, painful, sour look that has taken over your face to diminish if even if only for a few hours. DISTRACTION is the key!

Use warm or cool oil depending on how sensitive your skin is. ((I would suggest it be more on the warm side so that some of its pleasant aroma penetrates the air around you and helps set the mood for this often unilateral task)).

Place a few drops of oil at the point that undergoes the most use and begin to rub gently. Increase the speed of the rubbing if you want immediate satisfaction or continue to rub slowly for a longer, more impactful resolution.

Once you immerse yourself in this pleasant chore, the tension you have been feeling so omnipresent in your life without blogging, will slowly begin to fade into your sub-conscience. This new sense of self-satisfaction will take your mind off your previous addiction and might even leave you with a smile on your face. ((Depending on what brand of oil you use, you should also experience a new softer skin texture on your hand)).

It is also very likely that your wife ((who usually does not have the benefit of watching you perform this solitary act)) will be so thrilled that you have taken one of the mundane chores off her plate, having waxed all the wood in the house, that you will likely be rewarded with a roll in the hay.

It's a win-win situation propeller head.

Phone Sex Can Keep Relationship Going Strong

Question:

I'm in a serious long-distance relationship with a wonderful man. We see each other as often as possible and communicate daily, but the time spent apart in-between trips can be tough. Can you offer advice on how to maintain a romantic and happy long-distance lovelife?

Signed,
Counting The Days

Answer:

First of all Counting The Days, let me congratulate you and your beau on your stamina to maintain this long distance relationship. It proves that 'abstinence does make the heart grow fonder'. Providing that you have a healthy intimate relationship I'm sure that when indeed you do get together it's pure bliss. He's likely to perch and preen like a woodpecker on a tree in spring when the wood is fresh and the blossoms new. If all relationships were like this just imagine how many lawyers would be out of business. Oh...the perfect world!

For many people out there, regardless of age, this can be one of the most rewarding relationships because there are no laundry piles to be dealt with sans your own, you can eat leisurely in bed guilt free no matter what time of day it is, and you get to experience only the fun things together because of the limited time frame. This can make a relationship sail along without glitches, arguments over chores, money woes or worrying about the kids (only during your time away because I assume they don't travel with you during one of these trysts). On the other hand the sex cannot be that frequent.

After perusing your site it appears that there is approximately 9 days until actual physical contact can be made. In order to make this the 'perfect' meeting, I would strongly suggest that there be no touching of oneself in order to get the most 'bang' for your buck on the eve of your reconciliation. (Yes...I know this can be difficult). One can only imagine the build up as you walk towards him at the airport...your lips brush across one anothers...his hand reaches towards your...er...where was I?

However, if for some reason this abstinence is too daunting to achieve, I would suggest a late night phone call (1-800-976-WTIT) to your beau filled with (w)titillating conversation, a bottle of warming K-Y Jelly, your favorite toy, and a few glasses of French Bordeaux chucked down shortly before the call is made. (This does not necessarily constitute a drink and dial unless the effects of the wine have an immediate impact on your sensibilities).

The utilization of immediate release will help you when you are apart and are faced with that sudden feeling of heat rushing ramant through your body when he crosses your mind. (Yes I know we all say it's due to (pre) menopause but I believe it means we're just horny and we ain't getting any!)

So my best advice to you is to utilize the phone as often as possible as a way of 'reaching out and touching someone'!

Ex Hexed

Question:

I recently found out that one of my ex-wives is reading my blog. At least she does not comment. Since she is both happily married and also I am anything but kind when discussing these women, what could her motivation possibly be?

And how do I stop such a run-on sentence?

Answer:

First of all, let me just say that blog traffic is sometimes difficult at best to acquire so kudos on your constant and growing audience.

As far as your EX reading your blog, I think this suggests that she still secretly desires you and you continue to serve as inspiration to fuel her current fantasies no matter how bad/good your parting was. Some girls, no matter how they try to hide it, just like 'bad-for-them' boys.

On the other hand, since you say you are not kind when discussing your ex-wives (studman), perhaps she misses your potty-mouth banter in her new marriage. Remember the old adage 'sometimes you don't know what you want until it's gone.' The premise of happiness is not always what it appears to be to the naked eye. Maybe Mr. Right is too nice and she's really bored and keeping tabs on you gives her some kind of odd satisfaction.

Since you have not mentioned a current wife, it's also possible that she might just be undulating in some kind of warped happiness because you are NOT married again.

This in turn may make her feel like she is irreplaceable in your life and that you will forever remain a lonely guy, although based on your picture, this is not likely the scenario (and there are rumors). Your singleness may just be providing her with the fodder she needs to keep her current marriage in the blissful state that you suggested in your question.

Since she does not leave comments it is also possible that she's just plain nosy. Some would consider this an ex-stalking but I would guess that in this case it is nothing more than morbid curiosity.

If you really want to see where she's at-I suggest posting something daring and provocative on your blog about your ex's. You might just provoke her into leaving a comment. Although if this was a problem during your marriage (too many comments) I would suggest leaving things as they are because once you open Pandora's Box there's no going back.

As for the run on sentences my suggestion would be to start using your grammar skills by inserting commas and periods so that we can stop them where they should be stopped, which will lead to less confusion for those whose reading skills have been limited but not entirely erased over time because of ailments that affect our brain as we get older and which leave us the inability to rationalize where a sentence should begin and where one should end correctly.

Hard Times For Produce Man...

Question:

I took your advice and am keeping my pecker up. It has been 2 days. What do I do with it now?

Answer:

First of all Sir, congratulations on keeping your pecker up for two days in a row (sans the little blue pill I assume). Women across the world will likely begin to search you out if your significant other is unprepared to 'nurse you back to health' so to speak.

One thing you must absolutely remember to do in situations such as this is to continuously check the baggage below to ensure that nothing is turning a blue shade. This can lead to a detrimental change in attitude and can cause elevated irritability.

In certain cases, men whose pecker stays in an upright position for an unusually long time have begun to develop a pinched facial appearance, have difficulty maintaining a calm demeanor and have had to wear their shirts untucked in order to provide cover for their otherwise attention getting feature.

Reports show that it has also lead many to participate in public leering and ogling, so be careful where you go during times when your pecker is about to peak, or, prepare yourself for unexpected reactions from the opposite sex such as a quick, sharp smack to the face.

There are also other health risks involved in moving about when your pecker is at full staff. For instance--it has been reported that turning a corner too quick can lead to bodily injury, which will require an ointment application in order to achieve some sense of relief. (Depending on how you look at this, this could be a really really good thing.)

I suggest that you enlist the help of someone close to you to 'give you a hand' in order to alleviate this problem otherwise you might just blow it yourself.

Good luck and if all else fails--my phone number has been e-mailed to you.

I Have A Question...

that I should ask myself.

What in the sam hell is going on?

I'm a writer at heart and a writer by profession and yet words have fallen to the dark side, left to be discovered perhaps at a later date when I may or may not need them. Mmmmm, she wonders!

So I ask myself -- what purpose do my words serve? Should I make you laugh, cry, or should I try to fool you with a story that just might be but never has been? Should I fling 'shite' like wallpaper to cover all exposed surfaces or dangle a pacifier to soothe your ills away?

I guess that will be what unfolds here as this site begins to develop. My old friends are starting to stop by and it's nice to know that they still find me worthy of a look here and there.

So I wait for your questions in hopes that I will not become a rambling idiot.

Until then, keep your peckers up!

I'm Back In A Strange Way

I've decided to start this new blog in hopes of regaining some sense of humor. Life has been throwing me a lot of curves over the last several months and it's time to get something else going.

I would like to offer my advice to anyone struggling with life issues, but, just remember...I write humor, so don't expect that I will always be giving truely meaningful advice.

So here's your big opportunity to solve some of the mysterious issues that plague you while awake, sleeping, driving or just plain breathing.

Leave me a question in the comment section and I will do my best to steer you in the right direction.

Yes...the doctor is in the house!
