Boys, boys...let's calm down now. There's nothing wrong with hating taxes and being The Decider at the same time. But both of you should think about picking up a copy of my new book, "I Can't Decide If I Deserve To Live!" It explores the modern conumdrum of too many choices and too little time to make them

Let's take the case of a patient I've treated for years who I'll call "G.D." (Not his real initials...really.) Now DG, errr...GD, prides himself with not being able to decide. In fact, he's made an entire career of it. He can't decide when to get up, what to wear, what to eat for breakfast, even what bicycle to ride that day. He goes on line before making every decision and asks around. "Say Fellows, should I get out of bed on the right side or the left side?" Things like that.

Now I know what you're thinking. How can this person even function! But DG has mastered the art of Not Deciding. Half of North America knows him from his questions on chat rooms and discussion boards all over the World Wide Web. At least once a day, someone will drop by his place and cook him a meal or fix his bike or offer to cover that month's rent. So you see, the key isn't deciding, but deciding that not deciding isn't a bad decision after all!
