All the eyerolling has got to help, right?

Is there nothing he can do about it right now?

Nope. He said it's like my eye suffered a miniature stroke, so a certain amount of damage has already been done. If there are complications, there's stuff he can do with a laser. But besides that, all we can do let let my body try to fix it as much as possible.

Poor Tom. Eyeballs should come with a longer warranty than other parts.

Politicians and good hair are not concepts I put together in any sort of causal fashion. I mean, they're politicians.

Ooh, yet more evidence that Tim McCarver is actually a politician! He has bad hair!

I was writing a letter to the Sports Biz people at the Times, who print snarky commentary about how sports are covered on TV and in print, and mentioned that listening to that man's shallow, bathetic blather, when he didn't even tend to have his facts straight, was like watching presidential politics.

Which was why I was not even watching the White Sox/Angels game; instead, I got the Pitcher's Mound Butt Cam view of Andy Pettitte and the Cards/Astros on FX.

tommy -- don't hold onto chances. All that knowledge can do for you is cause worry. Wait to find out how it turns out. The waiting sucks, but don't predict your own doom.

Yeah, good point.

Hee!

Sorry about your eye Tom.

If eyerolling helps, I'd prescribe listening to a lot of Bill O'Rielly

If eyerolling helps, I'd prescribe listening to a lot of Bill O'Rielly

That would work, if there was something to counteract the side effect of my brain exploding.

If eyerolling helps, I'd prescribe listening to a lot of Bill O'Reilly

But then his head would explode and his poor eyeballs would have nowhere to live, rolling or not.

edit: HAH! xpost.

Hope the vision clears up.

Heh. O'Reilly-induced head explosion x-post.

Loving the exploding head x-post.

Exploding head x-post x-post.
