The
Science of Sex
Too many sex books are
filled with fluff. This one isn't. Cast away your preconceptions of sex books as
being a rehash of things you already know and hence a waste of time. By reading
this book, you will learn things that Dr. Ruth and other sexologists have never
considered.

At
work in the ER. (Early 1990's)
Footage from a Channel-12 TV interview. Here I am reading an x-ray and
wondering how I could evade the questions that a reporter wished me to answer
on-camera. To make a long story short, she wanted my reaction to a bill
passed earlier in the day by the Michigan Senate shielding ER doctors from
malpractice except in cases of gross misconduct. Although I had a definite
opinion on this subject, I wished to dodge it because I had to think of an
answer that was representative of my viewpoint, palatable to the viewing
audience, and acceptable to the hospital bigwig who was in the ER and listening
to every word that I and the ER Chairman (who was also interviewed) said.
The attractive reporter evidently had experience dealing with reticent
interviewees like me, so she truncated my excuses by sticking a microphone in my
face, telling me "Look into my eyes," after which the cameraman flicked on
bright lights and I was being videotaped. One of her questions was
essentially, "So you've never been sued, but you have to think of this
possibility all the time?" and I responded affirmatively (any doctor who doesn't
is being too Pollyannaish). Unfortunately, the bill wasn't enacted into
law, and docs can still be sued even when they give perfect care,
as I later found
out.
Me at the time I entered medical school.

 My
brothers and I years ago. (1965, I think)
Me at age 5 or 6.
Me (age 7 months) with my brother Ray (age about 2 years). Doesn't he look
pensive?
Me (age 14) talking on a tape recorder I'd just received for Christmas.
Note the bowl haircut.
 After taking my neighbor's children out for a snowmobile ride, I returned to
find that they'd thrown a surprise birthday party for me. Graciously, they
gave me only one candle to blow out. (1998)
 After returning from a bad
blind date. (January 31, 2002)
 If I look tired in this picture, it's because I
am. I didn't sleep well last night because I had a nightmare about Bill
Gates. Usually, ol' Bill just gives me nightmares during the day . . . but
now nightmares of buggy Microsoft software even at night? Aaaahhhhhhhh!
In any case, in this picture I am standing by the side of my house.
(August 21, 2002)
 Here I am at the age of
44½.
Me in 2008, age 50. Puffy hair day! :-)
