Coca Cola and Rangers Baseball: Life Tastes Good!

Plump up the volume!

I have been doing some landscaping around my house.  This spring I put a great plant in my backyard, a Japanese aralia.  This plant has a tropical look to it.  In the summer heat, however, it quickly lets me know when it needs to be watered.  It wilts and looks a bit sickly.  With just a …

Texas heat…be safe!

As the heat cranks up the deeper we go into summer here in North Texas, I am reminded of my first-weekend on-call during my plastic surgery training. Entering the training program, I remember thinking that there probably wouldn’t be too much need for a plastic surgeon in the emergency room, other than a few lacerations. …
