Dr. Laura

Last night I waited in line for 2 hours at a Vancouver, Washington Wal-Mart to meet one of my role-models, Dr. Laura. Some of you my gasp "My gosh, she likes that self-righteous hypocrite!" while some of you may glare in jealousy at my enviable Dr. Laura autograph and unwashed hand with her fingerprints. Whether you are a fan or an annoyed citizen, I am here to say "Do not judge until you listen to her at least 10x or read one of her books." Once you do, you'll be a fan for sure.

People, she is a strong woman with strong opinions, but gosh dang it, she is right on the money with many political and moral admonitions. When I first started listening to her I hated her guts, voice, and irritating laugh. But then, as the wisdom and advice washed over me like the cleansing mist of Miss Niagara herself, I became a believer. In a world where too many pussy-foot around morals (to the detriment of innocent children and families), Dr. Laura stands boldly like Samuel the Lamanite (a Book of Mormon reference for you) and declares penetrating truths. I like that. I like her courage, and I even like her forcefulness. The more I listen to her, the more I can see she is just forceful because that is the ONLY way some people will get the concept.

So, here I am with a few pictures of her and her autograph in her newest book The Proper Care and Feeding of Marriage. For any of you who are married, or in a committed relationship, I highly recommend this book. It really is all about how to serve and devote yourself to your spouse, and what could be wrong with that?
