Ask Dr. Q!

June 14, 2000

Dear Dr. Q,
I'm a new intern, and I just discovered the vibration mode on my pager. Now I can't stop paging myself and I was wondering if there was anything I could do? - Lonely in New York

Doesn't sound like too much of a problem. May I suggest you lock the call room door prior to hitting the redial button on the phone? Otherwise, it seems you have found the secret to surviving internship. Keep up the good work. - Q

Dr Q,
Why are there so many songs about rainbows and what's on the other side? - It Ain't Easy Being Green.

Rainbows are visions - but only illusions. And rainbows have nothing to hide. - Q

Hey Dr. Q,
Why is one of my feet bigger than the other? - Three Coins In The Fountain

Experts have been pondering this question for decades, so don't expect me to give you an answer in the measly time and space I get here. What is probably true, and likely has some face validity, is that either one of your feet is large or the other is small. It also has something to do with genetics and the fact that your mother made you wear a small binding shoe on your right foot while you wore a large "Rocky & Bullwinkle" slipper on your left foot. - Q

Remember: Quality Without The Q Is Just Uality!
