Hey, blogophiles. I'm Benjamin A. Wendell,M.D., but you can call me Ben. After reading a couple of my posts, some of you will probably want to call me "ignorant bastard", which is equally fine, just so long as you do so in the comments section and tell your friends to come and abuse me as well. I've been writing Left, Right, and Centered for two years now and was a "community columnist" for the Bloomington Herald-Times for a couple of years before that. Since I got paid all of $10/column, I can honestly call myself a professional journalist. You be the judge.
