It was bad enough when I turned 50 that she started asking if my "other gun" was still performing as expected so if she starts asking about my firearms I think I think I will crawl off in the woods and go holistic the next time something gives out!

I have a very pretty Dermatologist that is helping me stay alive and mostly in one piece. I get a full body check every three months because I have had melanoma. It would have been much more enjoyable 30 years ago.
 
The family doctor I have been going to for over twenty years has asked me about guns several times. He has wanted my advice on what to get next. He has guns and carries one at times. He doesn't wish to be killed by some scumbag who thinks he may have some good drugs at his clinic. He is an immigrant from a country where one can get twenty years in prison for just having a gun. He appreciates the fact that he has a right to "keep and bear arms" in this country. He is an NRA member. He has been snubbed by other physicians for his stand on the subject. My optometrist is a big game hunter who has taken The Big Five in Africa and has an extensive gun collection. They are not all knotheads.

I would have given her a sly half smile, looked her in the eye and said, "Only one way to find out."
 
My blood pressure is still in the normal range for a 20 year old .My dentist ,a very pretty 30 year old blonde,checks it because I'm an "old guy".It's always high when she does and she tells me to talk to my dr. about it.So I do.And he and I laugh and laugh.He's an " old guy" too.
 
The last time I went to the VA, they assigned a young, Asiatic Indian, female doctor to treat me. It had been a while since I had been in for treatment, so I was getting quite a bit of testing from her. She noticed I am over 50 yrs. of age, so she asked me if I "wanted a rectal exam". I told her "Ma'am, there is a HUGE difference between needing a rectal exam and wanting a rectal exam. I may need one, but I sure don't want it." She turned as red as a brick and called a male orderly to act as a witness that she didn't have too much fun doing the exam. Afterwords, she told me she was going to have me see another doctor as she had taken on too many patients...right.

Oh well, it was fun while it lasted.

Regards,

Dave
