Am unable to watch Dr. Phil or Springer shows. SHows only air in British Columbia on weekdays during the day, I think.

THank goodness there are other shows better watch when I get home.

To get to work, I must leave home at 5:15 am and don't get home until around 7:30 pm or later even, if traffic is clogged.

Wow, Orchid, your drive sounds like mine. I work 40 miles from my home one way with traffic. What I try to do is make a lot of great CD's and breathe while weaving in and out of traffic.
I have to fight roadrage and always trying to beat the record with an eagle eye out for the cops. That's when I enjoy my ride more than ever. I have a love affair with my vehicle...a shiny black Nissan Altima with black windows and rims.

I either heard or read somewhere that psychiatrists had the highest suicide rate of any profession. Some people are real good at giving advice to others. But those same folks' cannot find their way out of a dead end street. I never watched Dr. Phil; but his ads give the impression, he's all show and no know!!! Never saw his wife. Never watched Springer and doubt if I missed anything.

bonnierose, you didn't. I've watched it about 10 times in my lifetime and each time I came away wondering where in the world did they find human beings with such low IQ's.
Have any of you ever watched the X-Files? Remember the one about the Peacock family?? That's what Jerry's guests reminded me of.
There are animals with a higher IQ and more sophistication..

I think they believe its their 15 minutes of fame. God help them. I'd rather be unknown than known as a fool.

Dancer, I just now saw your question. I work with battered women and am the author of a book on domestic violence.

Dianne, that is fabulous. It is a cause I have spent my life doing concerts for and shows. First, let me thank you for your work in this area. I, and my mother were battered women and as a child I was so abuse that in the middle of my treatment Oprah Winfrey's people tried to book me for a show and my agent got several book offers for me.
What you do is more wonderful than I can say.
What is the name of your book and again, I thank you.
Dancer
