THE DOCTOR THAT HAD BEEN SEEING AN 80-YEAR-OLD WOMAN FOR MOST OF HER LIFE FINALLY RETIRED. AT HER NEXT CHECKUP, THE NEW DOCTOR TOLD HER TO BRING A LIST OF ALL THE MEDICINES THAT HAD BEEN PRESCRIBED FOR HER. AS THE YOUNG DOCTOR WAS LOOKING THROUGH THESE, HIS EYES GREW WIDE AS HE REALIZED SHE HAD A PRESCRIPTION FOR BIRTH CONTROL PILLS.

'MRS. SMITH DO YOU REALIZE THESE ARE BIRTH CONTROL PILLS?'

'YES, THEY HELP ME SLEEP AT NIGHT.'

'MRS. SMITH, I ASSURE YOU THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NOTHING IN THESE THAT COULD POSSIBLY HELP YOU SLEEP!'

SHE REACHED OUT AND PATTED THE YOUNG DOCTOR'S KNEE. 'YES, DEAR, I KNOW THAT. BUT EVERY MORNING, I GRIND ONE UP AND MIX IT IN THE GLASS OF ORANGE JUICE THAT MY 16 YEAR OLD GRANDDAUGHTER DRINKS...AND BELIEVE ME, IT HELPS ME SLEEP AT NIGHT.'

I dialed a number and got the following recording: "I am not available right now, but Thank you for caring enough to call. I am making some changes in my life. Please leave a message after the Beep. If I do not return your call, You are one of the changes."

The quote of the month is by Jay Leno:
"With hurricanes, tornados, fires out of control, mud slides, flooding, severe thunderstorms tearing up the country from one end to another, and with the threat of bird flu and terrorist attacks, "Are we sure this is a good time to take God out of the Pledge of Allegiance?"
