Episode 6: Forbes Memphis Misery

March 15th, 2010

I interrupt your previously scheduled Church Health Center intervention to bring you this late breaking therapeutic opportunity:

Memphis is Miserable

I know this because I read it in Forbes Magazine

Like many other captains of industry, I trust Forbes to bring me timely and insightful updates about events I am currently experiencing, to save me the trouble of forming opinions of my own.

Your average Memphian, however, is not nearly so enlightened, relying on lesser sources of information such as first hand observation and personal experience.

So I took to Beale Street to share my superior wisdom with the masses:

Even St Patrick and his green suited marauders were no match for my therapy.

But don’t think for a minute I have forgotten about the Church Health Center. I have one final dose of brilliance up my sleeve for them.

Episode 5: Church Health Center – “Night of the Livid Nutrition”

February 27th, 2010

After an exhaustive and exercise-filled beginning, my intervention into Church Health Center took a stomach-turning turn for the worst as I encountered Natalie Best and Jessica Leu , two women positively neurotic for nutrition.

Night of the Livid Nutrition

I was amazed that these instructors of cuisine were completely unfamiliar with the most basic staples of fine dining – corn syrup, soft drinks, and lard. I left them nauseated and still in search of Dr Scott Morris.

Undaunted, my quest continues on March 15 in the final chapter: The Center Strikes Back.

Episode 4: Church Health Center Wellness – “Enter the Wellness”

February 14th, 2010

I knew from the outset that my intervention at Church Health Center Wellness would be a rough one, but I never suspected how quickly things would get physical.

In fact, during the ensuring interviews, if it were not for the peak of perfection in which I keep both body and mind, mangers Kimberly Baker and Richard Murphy might have wrestled the investigation from my unwavering control.

But of course they did not.

Enter the Wellnness

Strangely, even though they spilled information like a ruptured water main, I still found myself no closer to finding founding physician Dr. Scott Morris.

My search continues in part two: “Night of the Livid Nutrition” airing on March 1st.

Mind Over Memphis – Church Health Showdown

January 28th, 2010

Of all the institutions I have dealt with in my long and exceptionally gifted career, quite possibly the most misguided is Church Health Center Wellness.

The CHCW came to my attention like so many others do, with an anonymous e-mail tip reporting of questionably compassionate behavior and chronic do-goodery – so I launched a routine surveillance with wiretaps, thermal scanners, and some x-ray goggles I ordered out of the back of a magazine.

I knew something was amiss when I heard the words “not-for-profit” and “medical care” in the same sentence,  co-joined like a two-headed dragon of financial ruin.

And when I discovered their tinkering with non-FDA approved treatments like “prevention” and “exercise,” I knew it was time to strike.

If ever an intervention was called for – quite loudly and in angry tones – it is  at Church Health Center Wellness.

And answer the call, I shall. Not just once, but three times.

That’s right; I have devised a therapy for these hope-mongers that is so potent, and frankly alarming, that I must separate it into three doses for fear of burning out the internet and plunging the world into chaos.

ht.tootoo“Is that the internet again? I smell smoke.”


Part one of this intensive three-part mini-session will enlighten your existence on February 15th.

Part two will transform your psyche on March 1st.

And part three will detonate  your dysfunctions on March 15th.

If you miss these sessions, your life will grow so drab and meaningless that when you finally do return to therapy I will charge you double .

Unless of course I am already charging you double, in which case you’ll eligible for my new triple-dip pricing program.

Mind Over Memphis – Episode 3: Tennessee SuperLab

December 13th, 2009

Guy Cobb is a man who has forgotten how to play by the rules

As a former Bud Light Daredevil, Cobb grew accustomed to ignoring the demands of gravity and when he launched the Tennessee SuperLab Show with its blend of backyard science, impromptu invention, and crazy stunts, things got even worse.

If it were not for my timely intervention, Cobb might still be spiraling wildly out of all bounds.
