Tom, ITA there's no way that House would have performed that surgery.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Me too, Tom.
Ditto. Tritto.
I thought it was really, really stupid that they showed House ...
Yeah, what was up with that? He's a diagnostician, not a surgeon. I didn't get that at all. I hate the way the "team" is an expert in everything -- maybe when it comes to diagnostics, but surely other specialists should be treating some of these patients? Of course, then there would be no show.
I had a dream last night that I took a job in Thailand. It seemed the easiest way to get to see Fay and it.
Heh. It's just possible there *could* be easier ways, you know...
I really liked the concept of that episode of House, even though everything they had to do to make it fit made the medicine pretty unbelievable.
20 years ago was my freshman year in high school, I had just turned 14, and was mid-growth spurt. I know when I was 13 I bought a wonderful pair of Esprit corduroys. They were size 3 and soon became seriously cropped and then became unwearable. I was my basic adult size by mid-15 or so but 14 was a weird year.
Of course, when I first started wearing Levi's 501 I used to fold them just so at the ankles, so they looked pegged.
mr. flea is currently talking to a colleague in France, wirelessly using VOIP. From our living room. Somehow this is MUCH COOLER than just calling France on our wireless phone.
Cute Leif story from yesterday. He was reading a Scooby-Doo book and on his own, he wrote a letter to the author saying 'Thank You for Scooby-Doo Love Leif.' He even wrote her name on the envelope.
I don't know, hasn't the internal twin thing cropped up in a bunch of shows recently? Though they did choose an interesting manifestation.
Leif's too sweet.
I haven't seen chimerism on other mystery shows but surely many people saw I Am My Own Twin on Discovery Health. I thought it might be a solution from the ads, so I was surprised when it actually turned out to be the ultimate diagnosis.
ETA: I guess it was on CSI recently. (xpost with msbelle)
