Dangerous Reader! I have "a knee.” Do you have a knee? Or, perhaps, like Audrey Hepburn in this photo—My Gawd, look at that smile!—you broke your back riding a horse on location in Mexico?Or maybe you have a neck? Or a shoulder? Or a “growth?” I am especially interested in a growth, aren’t you?

My knee hurts like crazy. How about your knee? Did you buy a brace on Amazon? I did. $26.97. It has a lot of velcro. A LOT OF VELCRO! When I completely fall to pieces, Darling, you can just velcro my carcass back together and take me out square-dancing.

So. What is your ache today? How did you get it? How long have you had it? And how are you going to get rid of it?
