A Better Doctor: Dr. Ruth!

Sexy time!

Thank you, Nathan, for your post earlier today. Your thoughts on Dr. Laura only served to remind me why “doctors” with only one name really get my blood boiling.

Yes, Dr. Laura is a zipperhead and should be silenced. But when I really want to get the circulation moving, I think of a different doctor–Dr. Ruth. For sex advice, relationship advice, oh hell, just cause she’s so damn fine. That’s one central European immigrant who can sock it to me any time.

Oh, wait–parenting blog. Forgot. Here’s a video by Dr. Ruth in which advises couples with kids to have date night (go to the opera–nudge, nudge, wink, wink), or something like that. I was too busy drowning in those dreamy, bespectacled eyes to pay too much attention.
