"What did you do this weekend?" ( I like to chat with my patients, especially when their lives are way more exciting than mine!)
An Invisalign patient said he spent the weekend in Osh Kosh, Wisconsin, something you don't hear everyday in LA. He was with his father and brother who are pilots and wanted to fly planes. I thought, there must be a much closer location than Osh Kosh??? Little did I know, they were attending the EAA Aircraft Airventure Osh Kosh, a great international aviation event! You can see about 2,500 different types of aircraft, old, new, borrowed, and blue....There's an afternoon airshow, kid-friendly educational presentations, and you can learn how to fly (planes, that is :))!

My next patient, Jill, was actually not a patient today, but I saw her sitting in the reception area and had a nice chat. She had brought in a friend of hers who needed a "tooth consult." Jill hasn't been in for a while after her orthodontic treatment, as she has been busy with her new start-up company. It is called Automated Man, which targets college guys who are too busy (or lazy...lol) to get to the store for tolietries, etc. For a small monthly fee, you can have the goods delivered right to your door! What she and her partners discovered was that most of their new clients were actually mothers who were buying the service for their not-quite-so-independent sons. These moms were essentially already providing this service (free of charge mind you) for their sons who lived either 10 or 100 miles away! They were spending much of their time, energy, and money finding the different toiletries, lovingly packing them up and mailing them to colleges all over the country! Soon Jill decided it was time to create another site just for these devoted mamas, called Automated Mom! Moms everywhere can continue to provide for their "adult-children" just by hitting "Place Order." As the site states, they can "Show your love. Save your money." How cool is that?
