I think Doctor Oz has Opal brainwashed.

Got my mother-in-law brainwashed. She even forgets that he was for coffee(for instance) last week and against it this week. Hell, if we tried following his dietary advice we would all be on IV feeding. He won’t let you eat anything. Even the stuff he let’s you eat you can’t eat because the migrant farm workers have nasty hands.

So talking your ear off is now a medical condition?

Kidding aside — we never watch Dr. Oz, but recently we saw a teaser for his show that described some symptoms my wife has had for a long time. We watched the show and became even more concerned, so we got our doctor to get us a consultation with a specialist. It turns out she has Barrett’s Esophagus and a hiatal hernia. The surgery is on May 20th. If not for Dr. Oz, we never would have known, and it very likely would have developed into cancer.

My wife saw a show Dr OZ did about taking coffee bean extract for weight loss. I spent $160 on the beans, my wife did it for a couple of weeks, no results and gave up on the regimen. This guy is also an oppotunist, dont believe everyhting he says.

WHAT IF YOU USE A BLUETOOTH?

Everyone needs a source of wisdom..Hard to believe Earl isn’t her source.

Missing an ear, Opal?

Some people lose their fingerprints from texting…

Like ol’ P.T. Barnum said: there’s one born every minute !

Hey the strip is about two geezers not Dr OZ . . . .

If Dr.*Oz was a compentent Doctor he would not be on tv because he would be to busy being a REAL DOCTOR to spend his time on his ego trip show

‘Sorry, What was that you said?’

LOL xxx

I know using a cell phone excessively makes your brain disappear.

i don’t watch DrOz….he’s scary looking…with that long face and all…

Actually, the new phrase du jour is Priming…no more power of suggestion.

We’re so weird…

I don’t know about that, successfully avoiding cell phones, but I do know the old, hard handsets can give you a cauliflower ear.
