Shit's all sorts of different now.

They don't have to provide futile care if the person wanting it can't pay for it.

Could she have paid for it? I haven't seen either way.

Well, I think the race issue points more towards the lack of media attention, myself.

I agree. Here's this white woman, who - let's not forget - brought her current situation on herself - has all these groups fighting for her and praying for her to continue "living". Yet, I have yet to find reporting of any groups fighting to keep this 5 month old boy alive.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

So I think I will root for the team with the most intricate hairdos instead.

Too late, Cincinnati's gone, too.

I'm looking to cancel one of my credit cards and get one with rewards.

I got a United miles card a year and a half ago, and I've already managed to accumulate enough miles to pay for my ticket to NOLA.

Gus is tallest. Who's second-tallest? Is it 6' 3" me? I was thinking there was someone else taller than me besides Gus.

Although he's not officially a Buffista, Brendon taller than you, Tom.

Here's a Chronicle story about the issue:

It talks a little more about the background behind the law and behind that specific case.

On the credit card rewards front, I have a Capital One preferred something or other that gives me rewards. The thing I like about it is that, in addition to standard rewards that most cards give, I can also get things like a reduction in my interest rate. Or a payment towards my outstanding balance.

I pretty much have Jon Stewart's reaction- screaming at the top of my lungs.

I did a little work venting to someone who is nice here. They were completely understanding. They are being pulled in a million directions doing stuff that is in no way their job, so they get it.

I have a dear friend that is a Dr. and all this living will stuff has made me think about including him in knowing my wishes. Especially since my PCP is ever changing.
