Remember, you can hear my radio program daily on Sirius XM Triamp and connect with me 24-7

at Dr.ora.com. Okay, I'm reading this to you because I couldn't follow it. So if you can follow it,

maybe you can help me because I got lost.

You ready?

Just to show you what my life contains in part.

I recently just lost a friend group because of my standing up for one of them.

Short story.

One of the girls in the group was confiding in me about her relationship with a friend of

mine. She loved him. He didn't love her. My advice to her was to be friends, don't push anything.

Another friend who also had the hots for this same guy was confiding in me and asked if I knew anything. I said I knew nothing,

which was not true. The gal that was having the relationship told several other friends of mine

and those close friends actually went to the other party who liked him as well and chastise her

for being close to the man. Somehow when I read it out loud, I'm following it

better. The gal who was chastised told me this and I was pissed. When I heard this, I lost my shit

and yelled at the gals who chastised my friend. The gal pals who chastised were longtime friends,

and we used to go out every week for dinner,

to add some history.

For many years, going out with this person was embarrassing

because she would treat servers with disrespect and be high-maintenance.
