Dear All: I must be watching too much late night TV lately because I had some fantasies about how to handle the Dr. Phil show. We could pad the show with lactation consultants and use typical politician style nonanswers to the questions by asking him questions about his early life --- nursing duration if any, pacifier use, thumb sucking, etc. Or better yet, I started thinking about the wierd stuff David Letterman does and recreating it on Dr. Phil. We could have him sit under a blanket and have a timed eating contest against someone else. Or,,, maybe the sweet grandmotherly approach ----- I baked you this wonderful ..... (whatever is his favorite) and then spring it on him to try eating it under the blanket. There is always the drinking flat on your back with a funnel in your mouth to recreate the bottle feeding experience that could be turned into a contest with heart monitors and oxygen saturation levels taken on Dr. Phil and his competitor. Then I was thinking about that movie that I never saw that had some actor feeding a baby from a fake breast. Why not have Dr. Phil try to feed a real baby in an airplane-like chair with two people on either side in similar airplane-like chairs, having an SNS attached to his finger (with a nonlatex finger cot so the poor baby doesn't get contaminated) and his hand strapped to his chest at breast level. We could have a challenge to see who could "nurse" more discretely under those cirumstances. I'm envisioning the Orbitz commercial. Better yet, lets do it on Letterman - have him ask Dr. Phil on the show to do all of these "stupid human tricks". Best Susan. *********************************************** To temporarily stop your subscription: set lactnet nomail To start it again: set lactnet mail (or digest) To unsubscribe: unsubscribe lactnet All commands go to [log in to unmask] The LACTNET mailing list is powered by L-Soft's renowned LISTSERV(R) list management software together with L-Soft's LSMTP(R) mailer for lightning fast mail delivery.
