It's funny but at the moment I can just say - don't ask me anything for 6 years. :>Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10003856.post-1154411602480266092006-08-01T00:53:00.000-05:002006-08-01T00:53:00.000-05:00...but only ask questions about the reason you are......but only ask questions about the reason you are in my clinic today, not about the fifty other problems you have, you need to make another appointment to discuss those.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
