Waiting rooms

When I was about ten I went to the dentist and got my teeth drilled.  As I was waiting I read in the newspaper that the Queen Elizabeth ocean liner had just sunk in Hong Kong harbor.  So whenever I read about the Queen Elizabeth, I think of dentists.

I remember in one dentist's waiting room they some Sergeant Rock World War II comics.  At my current Czech dentist's place, I think I spotted a Victoria's Secret underwear catalogue. (Didn't that happen on Seinfeld?) My barber is Hungarian, so you can read some Hungarian magazines while waiting there.

My Arab psychiatrist's waiting room has National Geographic and Reader's Digest.  One of the only things I read in Reader's Digest is the Word Power quiz, except that I go straight to the answers!

Most of time in waiting rooms, of course, I'll bring my own reading.
