Cindy, if you feel comfortable sharing, do you think there was a
there
there, wrt her person-ness. Enough to be part of communion, or even benefit from anything other than last rites?

I thought he did-ish. He gave her a drop of wine, but couldn't give her the wafer.
Surgeons completed the operation by fitting a metal socket to Mr Nagle's head so he could be hooked up to a computer.
What kind of socket? USB? FireWire? Fiber optic? Punch card reader?
Season 2 of Firefly, baby!
Neuromancer, baby!
Gotta say, I'd pick the first one.
I wonder what sort of adaptor he needs if he goes overseas?
I'm confused about the claim that Terri didn't receive communion because on Easter there were reports that she'd recieved a drop of wine, but wasn't able to accept the piece of wafer.

There had been a report that Michael had said no, but later changed his mind. And it went exactly as you described it (according to reports).
You're allowed to give communion to people who aren't mentally there? Do they give communion to people in comas, too? I guess I thought there had to be some kind of volition involved in it, but maybe not.
I do remember reading over the weekend that she was given last rites.
And also my understanding of Catholic practice might be off, but I thought you couldn't receive communion (and maybe Last Rites) without going to confession?

NBC had a tough night at The Office Tuesday as its imported sitcom, which had shown promise with a strong debut last Thursday, virtually collapsed in its regular Tuesday-night slot. The sitcom, which received generally positive reviews, came in dead last in the ratings with a 4.1/6, losing to Fox's House, MD, which scored an 11.3/17 (and appears to be a genuine surprise hit for the network), CBS's Amazing Race, which garnered a 7.9/12, and even ABC's lackluster Rodney, which drew a 5.4/8. The top-rated show of the night once again was American Idol, which posted a 15.5/24. Together with House, Idol gave Fox a huge lead over its rivals Tuesday night.
