Good morning!
You might have noticed the newsletter is a little, well, out-of-date. Good reason. Tuesday we're walking through Kohl's and all the Halloween stuff is 80-90% off! So, I'm like, "Hon, could you throw about 5,000 newsletters in the cart. This is a steal of a deal." Anyway, an hour later we're unpacking the minivan, and I'm thinking, there ain't no WAY I'm going to remember these next October. So we figured we'd use them today and we appreciate your understanding. Good news is that we're passing the savings directly on to you.

We are blessed to get some great, constructive newsletter feedback.

Good stuff like,

"You seriously practice medicine? In other words, real people let you work on their bodies?!", or one of my favorites from Milwaukee,

"Dr. David, thanks for the interesting newsletter. We were curious if you knew of a website where they publicly list physician DEA #'s? You know, just to confirm someone who says they are a doctor is really a doctor?"

Point being, we love feedback and we read them all.

Today, however, we have a favor to ask. With a busy week at the office and all the chauffeuring around to kids' activities (Nutcracker rehearsals, basketball practice, etc.), I haven't had a moment to check the news. So, if you are  preparing to give us feedback and already know (already know?!) who won the election on Tuesday, please DO NOT TELL ME.

I taped it.

This marks our 5th Annual Trip to this World-Class venue, just 15 minutes from home.  The ranch offers 110 acres of meticulously maintained pastures, woods, creeks, ponds, as well as dozens of furry and feathered friends. It's like Winnie-The-Pooh's Hundred Acre Woods - only 10% better. You can feed and pet these absolutely gorgeous alpacas. It also gives us an opportunity to say good-bye to the turkeys (or you can be like me and just pretend they are the same turkeys as last year). There will also be a huge bonfire to warm yourself and we will have plenty of coffee, granola, fruit, etc. Then I will wrestle a bear.
A brown bear commonly known to many as a "Grizzly". "Thelma Sue" weighs #817 lbs and just to keep it interesting, I will be wearing a shirt with photographs of her 2 cubs that reads, "I HAVE COME TO TAKE THEM FROM YOU"
We're just kidding though; we would never take her cubs. We just think a little 'maternal instinct' will make this a fair match.
("I thought this was a medical newsletter?")

Hey Rock Star?
150 minutes and I don't care how you get them - car, plane, or train - anything's fine. Just keep moving - we need you around for a long time.

Our best,

David

Here is where you click for this weekend's walks.

This applies to all grocery store samples this Saturday. You may copy this coupon and use more than once. Please present to the dude in the apron handing you the sample. He may say, but you didn't "buy" it. Just say, "That's okay, hand it over anyway."
There's a chance he/she may get possessive and say, "Why should I?"

If that happens to be the case, just reply, "Because I said so and if you don't change your attitude, I'm not giving you this coupon."
