...else fails, you just have to operate without another doctor. This is especially true for middle-of-the-night and weekend emergencies. Common sense and unfortunate anecdotes tell us it is unquestionably less safe for the person on the table to have only one doctor present. But, not surprisingly, no surgeon, hospital, insurance company or government agency has wanted to come up with a hard statistic on how much less safe it actually is. It is clearly against all of their interests to show that assistants are needed. And it's not something I've seen brought...

...sandwich, this time with a Baja Blast Mountain Dew® and I sat down on my bench. I was halfway through my sandwich, on the bench with my headphones on, when a kid somewhere between 5-11 years old sat next to me.

I was on an airplane coming back from Europe two days...

...fashion still considered a liability in Washington? I'm not sure it is. I think that if you look at the women - members of Congress - they are all dressed pretty well and in a style that is appropriate to their position. I have to tell you, when I was the first woman Secretary of State, first of all, I didn't look good in pants - but I didn't wear pants. And I think that is something that has really changed in terms of looking good and being comfortable. Most of the women, either Senators or members of Congress, have...

...picture, which Floridians will see more than once before the primary, of the governor and the President arm in arm. Crist's aides can list the various things the stimulus funds have done for Florida - saved the jobs of 26,000 teachers, for starters. They will also tell you that Florida is a net "donor" state: it sends more money to the Federal Government than it receives. "Why shouldn't we get our fair share?" the governor asks. And as for his Obama hug, "He is the President of the United States. You honor the office." (Read "GOP Governors: Split...
