penn and teller episode on everyones favorite pasttime (if the censors let it through.)

 

Warning: If you actually start watching it, beware of language.

 

I saw it last week. The whole thing was a pure bliss, and Penn's language is just the dot over the "i".

Just got back from home. Travel is costing me a fortune.

 

Long long story short: my mum isn't about to die. The doctor's got it wrong and we showed them why. We also learned that asparagus is high in calcium, and if you eat too much (200g a day) it can make you look as if you have exploding organs.

 

I also had a totally unexpected reunion with an ex of mine who turns out to have me confused with Shryke. Since I'm overweight, stressed, and worried half the time I am deeply suspicious.

Excellent! But in all seriousness, how the hell does one tell someone they're about to pass on only to say "oops I mis-diagnosed you, nevermind." Makes me wonder where your mom's so called "doctor" got his/her m.d.

 

 

As for me, today I bought a new camera for my trip. I wanted to buy DSLR camera but the price tags suggested otherwise. Also got a new battery for my MBP. I don't understand how they can charge that price for a battery to a laptop that is the "last-gen" model.

Over the weekend we celebrated the 125th anniversary of the town my grandpa grew up in. It was quite the festival for the place just being a wide spot in the road. Yesterday I went to the Terry Redlin Art Center in Watertown. The amount and quality of his paintings was amazing.

Hey now, my mother is huge and don't you forget it. The drunk can't even get off the couch to make herself a vodka drenched sandwich. Octopus suck.

1) Doctors don't read enough Sherlock Holmes

2) Doctors should be trained as detectives or scientists, not diagnosticians

 

The basic problem is that they looked at the evidence (blood work, pain symptoms, fluid buildup), and it confirmed their standing hypothesis that it was all cancer. I mean, cancer's really bad, and system wide, so why not blame it for everything? Even we (the 'support team') fell for this at first. Fortunately, I got a hangover and when I get a hangover I get lairy and suspicious. That morning, between us, my stepfather and I realised you could use the same evidence and it was consistent with a number of other scenarios, including quite significant recovery with multiple complicating factors. We set about looking to disprove hypotheses like good scientists. What we found was an intermediate state, where there was no total system collapse, but some expansion of the tumours in the bones coupled with weak evidence for tumours elsewhere.

 

I've said it before and I'll say it again. you can't prove things in science. You have to look to disprove them. If we hadn't held to this maxim, politely, but ferociously my mother would be about to go through two separate invasive surgical procedures plus nuclear grade chemotherapy. Instead she's looking at a much quieter and more pleasant few weeks in a hospice followed by a planned regme of chemotherapy when she's stronger, not weaker.

At 5 o'clock this morning my sister fell out of the hotel bed and cracked her head open. She got three stitches and I had the fun of being next to her during the ordeal.

You should have asked them to embroider your initials on her head :*
