Say no more



Symptom: thanksgiving decorations must be passé: you have not seen one cardboard turkey, there is a paucity of gourds, the color combination of orange, brown, and yellow is no where to be seen. Additionally, at a recent dinner party, you realized that the generation behind you no longer knows what a "dunce cap" is, much less what it looks like.

Cure: Chicago--St. Paul, MN--Crystal, ND--St. Paul, MN--Chicago: be thankful. Be a pilgrim. Avoid dunces. Embrace doors.

She's a burger, she's a bee, she's a bounty




Symptom: when you were 10, your mother forbade you from dressing up as the half-man/half-woman---the line right down the face, make-up and mustache. You then had to simply opt for the 100% Lone Ranger. White jeans, a mask, and a mustache.
Cure: carefully study re-framing practices. Recall that things are still telling. Continue removing your mustache.
