Our hospital was the same way. We all had tags and Em was Lo-Jacked. Hosp went into auto-shut down if the "barrier" was passed. All doors and everything just locked. Like, Pentagon shut down.

Google tells me there were 2 cases last year. There was one in Nov in Columbia (the mother survived!) and the one in Dec in Missouri.
The crazy baby cutting out people had no window of opportunity with me, damn it.
Yes and thank god. Though, in one of the cases I was reading about, the woman's attacker was her "pregnant" friend. Which is super freaky. Like, do you need to be carrying around an ultrasound machine to verify the pregnancies of those around you?
I remember the Kansas one. I went to her first hearing. She was incredibly pathetic.
So the trial was in Kansas? I know she was caught there but it seems odd when the murder happened in Missouri.
When I was REALLY pregnant, I refused to go outside after dark by myself. I was terrified.
The hearing was an extradition hearing in the Kansas federal court-- IIRC she agreed to extradition to Missouri.
ah. I was starting to wonder if crossing the state line with the kid had some impact on jurisdiction aside from making it a federal case.
So now I'm imagining all these people feeling about my lovely theme song the way I feel about the Enterprise abomination.

If I just put him in the 'freak' pile, I won't have to fuck with my worldview.
Wrod. I luuuurve the theme song. And I have listened to the soundtrack for OMWF frequently.
I made my dad stay through the credits last Sunday, just so I could sing. We were the only ones left.
Every. single. time.
edited because I love the music, but apparently can't type.
Ahem. I would like to just take a moment to say that I LOVE NILLY'S SPICY BRAINS. < /end spaz attack>
Nilly has the amazing ability to put into words things that I was thinking, that was living just at the back of my subconscious, but that I hadn't been able to put into words. Pure genius.
In other news... um... I liked the theme song, and I have yet to sit through all the credits. First time, my friends (not so much with the fannishness) wanted to leave right away, and the second time the dumb theater didn't show the credits. What's up with that? I would like to hear the new version.
Also, Gandalfe has email and a package on the way.
