Who gives advice to Dear Abby's Abigail Van Buren? And who gives advice to Dr. Phil, and to the members of Congress and to Bret Favre? Who cares? However, if you want to know who gives advice to the readers of the Dodgeville Chronicle...that would be Ron Dentinger. "Dear Ron," is taken from twenty years of advice offered "free" to readers of the Dodgeville Chronicle. In that time there have been only a few divorces and about a half dozen lawsuits as a result of people using advice in Ron's column. And who's to say those divorces and lawsuits would not have happened anyway?
