Why Bother?
Dear worried and worrisome;

Vell it is time for a bit of free brain care advice vonce again to stave off zat inevitable visit to the psychiatrist of your choice. I should be the psychiatrist of your choice but since you are probably crazy, you vill choose someone else after reading my free advice.

My Bliss Through Brain Damage column seems to haff appealed to many of you. Construction sites in Europe and North America are reporting brick shortages. Zo bang goes all your problems and when you have arrived at permanent bliss, you have zee "funky" pair of bookends, door stops, or the start of a patio.

I am most pleased at your fan mail. Clearly there are those who are actually not crazy after all to say such nice things about me. Ziss is unbelievable. But you are all right of course. I am thoroughly vunderful. I am so vunderful that I often muse that it is just as vell that there are two of me. At least that vas until last week when my wife left me to go to my "delusional" double in Berne Switzerland. Ven I ask her how she could leave me she said "Easy dumkopf. Besides I am not leaving you, maybe I am returning to you." Vomen! They can be so damn logical and sensible. If she stays in Berne at the Halfredt Clinic, then maybe I am a figment of my own imagination. This complication leads to some rethinking of things.

If I am imaginary, should I eat, write columns, hit people with sticks and make money with carrot and stick psychiatry? In the end why do it? In the end, why do anything? This may be a qvestion you have asked yourself. The vorld might just be divided into two kinds of people. Those who ask important qvestions and those who accept the whole Enchilada. Qvestioners eventually go crazy, because of qvestions and vorse: answers vhich are correct but unpleasant. Those who do not ask qvestions enjoy the vorking hours much more. That iss all for now cases.

Zo if you find you are crazy, buy some bricks, avoid the tricks, don't be lazy, take your lumps, like all the chumps who come for the short cost effective visits to my loud and carrot filled office.

Be a short whack from the light. Right.

Till next time,
your shrink,
Dr. Dag
