Sad.....and finally...

Finally.....going back to work tomorrow after my little illness....then babies pneumonia. And Im getting a bonus too! WOOHOOO!!!! Ive been missing my ER. Its weird how it is such a part of my identity. I suppose that is a bad thing in some ways but to me being in the ER is a frame of mind and I recognize it takes a certain amount of crazy to stay there. I just wouldnt be happy in another department (I think). But blah blah whatever. Yay moneyz I needz uze!!

Congrats to the US hockey teams!!! And congrats to the Canadian ice dancing champs!
Maybe its just me, but it seems like every Olympics, if the Russians lose to the Americans they get in a snit about it. Whatever happened to good sportsmanship? Maybe I'm wrong, or maybe there is more to it. If so, by all means spill it. But when you watch the medal ceremonies you always see them slouching, frowning, eye rolling, and looking bored.....haha sounds like me at 15!! Anyway, its called R-E-S-P-E-C-T!!!!

On to the sad news......a friend of my cousin's, Jenny Bizaillion.....I didnt know this girl but many many people in my church did. She was my age....married, had a daughter in the 10 yr old range, a good Christian girl, and a great singer. Anyway......she passed away today after what she thought was the flu but what was actually pneumonia which turned into sepsis. She was in the ICU for almost 3 weeks mostly unconscious, on the vent, then a trach. Had both legs amputated below the knee when gangrene set in. Started seizing yesterday and they found multiple infectious lesions in her brain. She is finally at peace. Ive been praying for her family, especially her daughter....that is an especially rough age for a girl to lose her mom. She and I were alike in many things....age, background, upbringing....we know a lot of the same people. And for someone so young to go through that and lose her battle is sobering to say the least.

I am shocked though not surprised at our (or rather "The Administration's") innability to learn from the mistakes of the past......namely Afganistan. And here we are again some 20 years later spilling new blood because it was unpopular back then for our people to be there. Just because there havent been any new Islamic militants hijacking our skies (yet) doesnt mean they arent waiting in the wings to do so again. Saddam Hussein is dead and gone but there are others waiting to take his place the second we pull up stakes and go. Allowing this to happen (again) is to spit in the faces of all who lost something in these two campaigns.

An interesting argument but the current conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan are different to the Soviet Occupation of Afghanistan in the 1970s-1980s.
And here we are again some 20 years later spilling new blood because it was unpopular back then for our people to be there.
Not quite. America chose to be on the side-lines during the Soviet Occupation until the Reagan administration when we decided to supply the Afghani militants, which we did because it could be covered up and Reagan could continue his peaceful deconstruction process of the soviet regime hand-in-hand with Mikhail Gorbachev during the period of Perestroika and Glasnost. This is significantly different to both conflicts today.
Saddam Hussein is dead and gone but there are others waiting to take his place the second we pull up stakes and go.
A risk we'd inevitably have to take and there really isn't anything the Coalition of the Willing can do for the Iraqi people at this moment in time. We've trained and equipped their military as best we can, we've installed a legitimate democratic government and we've stabilised what was once an ethnically violent region. Mind you, I'm not saying Iraq right now is perfect and I'm not saying it ever will be. Yes, it does have its flaws but the nation-state is never-the-less at a point where it has the capability to take care of its own problems.
Allowing this to happen (again) is to spit in the faces of all who lost something in these two campaigns.
May I ask how exactly?

I wish I could, but I work in a comic shop, I don't own it, so I can't declare my gaming stuff as a work expense.

Sorry about the car stereo, sounds like it would cost more to replace the window rather than the stereo... :/

Ok, I know I suck as a human now. But what happened that you're on bedrest??
