Promoted from the Comments – “Do You Feel Safe at Home?”

Commenter Mike Remski left a humorous comment on my “I’m Agreeing With NH Senator Cindy Rosenwald (D-Nashua)?? Why, Yes I Am” post concerning personal privacy vs the State trying to hoover up data on Moms that had just given birth. Had nothing directly to do with the post’s topic – except for “other questions” that might me asked by a doctor:

First [appointment] with a new Dr. He’s going through his list of questions, asks me “Do you feel safe at home?”

I answer “Yes, because my wife would kill me if I said No”.

It was beautiful. He completely froze for about 7 secs, turned slowly to see me with a huge grin on my face. Took 15 mins to convince him that I was just busting him.

Told my wife and she went to get the cast iron frying pan…..

I laughed – how could you not?

My doctor of almost 40 years retired and was assigned to another doctor in the practice that he had started.  I was wondering if I was going to get that question.

I would have answered with yep – I have a CVN-65 (nuclear USS Enterprise (carrier), an A-10 (“Warthog”, Lightening II, close ground attack jet), an M1296 (Stryker armored personnel carrier) and a  Mark 48 ADCAP (nuclear attack submarine torpedo).

Then let him figure it out that I was mimicking Mike Remski, just differently.
