Kids, I know what you’re thinking. It’s another year, it’s another time for resolutions and whatnot. Now, I’m sure I’d have a lot to say about resolutions, and whether or not you should have them, and how they’re likely stupid. But folks, sometimes you gotta set asides what’s stupid and what’s not stupid and just […]
Folks, maybe Christmas isn’t so bad. I know what you’re saying: “Dr. Matt, why would it be bad at all?” I admit, I may have treated Christmas like my alcoholic sister that I shake my head at, and have a hard time loving her for who she is. Sure, Christmas sometimes breaks my DVD player, […]
Listen, folks, if there’s one piece of advice I could give to people when buying gifts (not including the dozen or so I’ve given so far), it would be this: spend more than $30 on an alarm clock. “But Dr. Matt,” you say. “I’m not buying anyone an alarm clock.” Well, take it as a […]
Folks, I was talking to one of my clients the other day (and by client, I mean my mechanic for my Toyota Plug-in Hybrid Prius), and he said to me, “Dr. Matt, is there such a thing as bad love? Can there be love from someone that you just shouldn’t accept?” I found the question […]

Folks, I want to talk to you about getting what you want. Now, don’t misunderstand me. I’m not talking about how to get what you want. I’m talking about that event, that moment in which you are getting what you want. It’s coming right at you, and all you got to do is stick out […]
Folks, one day I was looking to buy myself another car. However, I like to pay cash, and the cash just wasn’t there at the moment. I was talking to one of my friends, a high-powered fitness trainer who sells this newfangled ab device on late-night TV. I was sitting around my apartment / office, […]
Whew, Nilly! Is it a scorcher outside today! Don’t worry, folks, I made sure to slather some of that sunblock lotion all over my body before I went outside. There were some places that it was possible the sun would not shine; however, it’s best to be safe. Talking about being safe got me to […]
Today I came across a discussion on what is Karma and does Karma really exist. There was a lot of discussion on both sides, often angry, and I thought that it might be time for Dr. Matt to come in and give the deciding factor, the final gavel, the ultimate decision on what is and […]
