Stroke: 7 Signs You Could Be at Risk of a Brain Attack

Gee, a few of my coworkers could use a brain attack. Not sure where they’d get a brain though..

Healthcare Industry Plans to Cut Costs

Absolutely hysterical.  The industry is talking about cost cuts and not allowing tremendous rises.  Gee, do you think it has anything to do with the threat of socialized medicine?

RELIGIOUS FOLLIES

Poll: Should the Catholic Church Lift Celibacy Requirements for Priests?*

The republicans want to designate 2010 as the Year of the Bible.

I guess National Day of Prayer wasn’t enough of a First Amendment violation.  They want to go whole hog. (hog being quite an accurate depiction)

THAT’S SOME BAD DAY

A U.S. soldier shot dead five fellow soldiers at a military clinic in Baghdad on Monday in an incident that the top U.S. military officer suggested may have been triggered by stress.

Stress?  Do you think? No way we could’ve seen that coming….

And more about unfriendly fire

*****************************************************

* So about that celibate priest thing….

There’s no question in my mind that celibacy is ridiculous and responsible for the great many of sexual problems with priests, however….

Is it reasonable, from a religious standpoint, to change the rule?

–> betcha you didn’t expect that

Celibacy? What would be the point of living?

Newt Gingrich became a catholic. Where can he go from there?

First schools said the kids had to have TV. Then a computer. Now, Missouri University School of Journalism students will be “required” to buy an iPhone or iPod touch for classes soon.

I had none of these things when I was a student in a class of 60 in grade school, 40 in high school, and 20 to 150 in college. Actually, most of the schools I went to didn’t have football fields or baseball fields either (Honest). We learned in lecture classes and we scribbled notes on paper. If you wanted to play baseball, you joined little league. The classrooms had half the lighting, steam heat, and no air-conditioning. Being that deprived of an education environment, how did my generation produce the world that young students of today live in?

Oh yeah, I forgot the republicans and H. Con. Res. 121…

First, I’m thinking — only if they make it the Bible of the Founding Fathers and I think they should be required to prove provenance…

…but I could let them get by without that if they would also, in the same resolution, declare a year of the Koran, a year of the Avesta, a year of the Upanishads, a year of The Rig Veda, a year of The Kitab-i-Aqdas, a year of The Granth, a year of The Tao-te Ching, a year of the Sutrakritanga, a year of The Ta Hsüeh, a year of the Kojiki, a year of the The Dhammapada, a year of the Sutta Nipâta, a year of the Bhagavad Gita, a year of Huckleberry Finn, a year of the I Ching, a year of the Book of Shadows, a year of Macbeth, a year of The Book of Mormon, a year of Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures, a year of the Tanakh, a year of the Talmud, a year of the Mishna, a year of the Midrash, a year of The Necronomicon, a year of the Book of Eibon, a year of the Pnakotic Manuscripts, a year of the Book of Dzayan, a year of the Olaus Wormius, a year of The Dionysian Artificers, a year of the Pistis Sophia, a year of the Transcendentalist, a year of Pensees, a year of Phaedrus, a year of Civil Disobedience, a year of the VIndication of the Rights of Women, a year of The Science of Right, a year of the Ethica, and so forth.

Buffalo: when are you starting your own blog?

Nah. Nobody would listen. Nobody reads the comments. It’s just idle stuff that fires in the synapses. A blog requires some sort of discipline. I show up awhile. I disappear awhile.

You’ve seen many blogs. That’s a perfect description :)
If you do, let me know. I’ll make sure to visit and list you here (unless you think that will take away traffic).

What Do You Think?
