He has an undergraduate degree in biomedical science and an MD from the University of Michigan. He worked with the Navy in Iraq, performing emergency surgery on our soldiers.

Which part of this man's resume are you comparing to a cartoon or sitcom character? TDB seemed like such a good idea, when it started. Lately it's devolving into a litany of snide cheap shots with soap opera reporting.

This is the funniest piece in a while and meant to be enjoyed for its irony and sarcastic wit. Laughter is the best MEDICINE after all ...

I nominate Dr Pepper. We need to start stressing the importance of soft drinks in a balanced diet.

To bobdhen:

green eggs and ham is not a medically recognized treatment for any disease. Furthermore, finding, seeing, or hearing a who is probably related to Dr. Seuss' track record of supplying hallucinogens instead of painkillers to patients. He's just not qualified.
