- I've had a run of good plane luck recently, but still no hot seatmates. -- nm - mafic Jan 13, 17:25
- Near, if we define that as on the same plane, good. Next, slim. ;) -- nm - the liioulu with booze cake cookbook Jan 13, 17:24

- Crying Tiger Beef. i would not rate it best thing i ever ate (even if it didn't burn my mouth off) - hell comes to pittsburgh Jan 13, 16:48 2
  - Ah well, I guess Curtis Strong has no taste :) -- nm - MojaveMeg Jan 13, 16:50 1
    - most yelpers agree that there are a lot of other things they do that rate better than Crying Tiger - hell comes to pittsburgh Jan 13, 16:56

- lyc...wifes currently hooked on ..toddlers & tiaras...ugh -- nm - budice Jan 13, 16:30 3
  - Oh, I watch that too, it's horrifying the way the mothers (and some fathers) tart up toddlers, put them in sexy clothes, and make them perform. - Trish Jan 13, 17:06 2
    - spray tan and nails on an infant makes me wonder...fwiw the little miss perfect guy is creepy -- nm - budice Jan 13, 17:10 1
      - Oh I know! (on both) The Little Miss Perfect guy acts like an aspiring child molester. I'd never leave a child alone with him. -- nm - Trish Jan 13, 17:21

Robert Rizzo, recently accused in the Bell City government scandal was performing community service as a parking lot security attendant for a local -- (link) - MojaveMeg Jan 13, 16:16 2
- He got community service for embezzling millions? I'm in the wrong line of work. -- nm - Mop (216 lbs) Jan 13, 16:46 1
  - No, actually for drunk driving. He's a real winner. -- nm - MojaveMeg Jan 13, 16:47
CNN: "Don't die waiting in the ER " - James Bond (aka Igor) Jan 13, 16:16 4
- I remember once complaining about a delay because the computers were down for the midnight update. I was told - MojaveMeg Jan 13, 16:19 3
  - Nursing homes know that calling the ambulance is the best way of jumping the queue. -- nm - Mop (216 lbs) Jan 13, 16:45
  - That's dumb. -- nm - James Bond (aka Igor) Jan 13, 16:21 1
    - That was Garden Grove Med Center under Tenet management. Not the best of reputations. -- nm - MojaveMeg Jan 13, 16:34
So, I was told today that I am not allowed to take a cab home from a surgery center post-op, for "legal reasons". What on earth could the problem be? - kelly Jan 13, 16:12 24
- It's all about litigation. if you started bleeding or passed out, the cab driver could just leave you by the side of the road. You, or your family, - jnine Jan 13, 17:34 1
  - Sadly so true. All this also comes into pay when a patient signs out "Against Medical Advice" - James Bond (aka Igor) Jan 13, 18:00
- I'm taking a cab home after my surgery on Tuesday -- nm - Remlik Jan 13, 16:33
- there are 'cabulance' services where the driver is supposed to have some ems skills and a radio and probably has a better background check than - zeitgeist Jan 13, 16:17
- They need a person you can trust. -- nm - James Bond (aka Igor) Jan 13, 16:16 1
  - I trust Aziz with my life. -- nm - Mop on Evo Jan 13, 16:30
- presumably you'll be drugged up, and they'll only release you with someone who'll take responsibility for your safety, - mafic Jan 13, 16:15 16
  - well, I'm out -- nm - CQ Jan 13, 16:22
  - arrggh. - kelly Jan 13, 16:19 14
    - I'm having the same problem trying to schedule a procedure. I hate to ask friends for things like this. -- nm - MojaveMeg Jan 13, 16:20 13
      - It's so tough, isn't it? My friends here are either working temp jobs or have very little vacation time, so it's hard to ask them to do that for me. - kelly Jan 13, 16:23 6
        
        I had to get my dir of ops pick me up from the hospital in nh. He drove up, picked me up, and drove me 20 feet to where my car was parked. Ridic. - miss amanda phones Jan 13, 16:46 3
        
        Last time I walked home. - the liioulu with booze cake cookbook Jan 13, 17:06 2
        
        yeah, last time I had something I lived across the street from the hospital and still had to have a person. -- nm - mafic Jan 13, 17:23 1
        
        They only checked as far as asking if I had someone picking me up. I said yes and left. -- nm - the liioulu with booze cake cookbook Jan 13, 17:28
        
        it sucks, no doubt. -- nm - CQ Jan 13, 16:25 1
        
        What really sucks is the fact that the center has Saturday hours once a month - which turns out to be the weekend Will will be home. - kelly Jan 13, 17:05
      - I should start a business. You give me temporary power of attorney, and I'll drive you home. -- nm - Dano Jan 13, 16:22 5
        
        Dano-To-Go! -- nm - hell comes to pittsburgh Jan 13, 16:24
        
        Don't even need power of attorney. Patient just says you are a friend and you are good to go. -- nm - James Bond (aka Igor) Jan 13, 16:23 3
        
        But with power of attorney I can secretly approve funny medical procedures to be performed on them. -- nm - Dano Jan 13, 16:23 2
        
        This is true. You are one step ahead of me there. -- nm - James Bond (aka Igor) Jan 13, 16:24 1

- This is what happens when he forgets to wear an album cover -- nm - Beryllium Jan 13, 16:10
They're just sick and tired of hearing about the damn darkies, you understand? -- nm - Reagen Jan 13, 16:06 34

    - Religion would probably be it. There's strong anti-Muslim sentiment on both sides. - TWuG Jan 13, 17:14 1
      - [deleted]
  - Stewart would deny it, but he's claimed by the left. Maddow and Moore. Definitely Olbermann. - TWuG Jan 13, 16:58 2
    - If Stewart is the left "fringe", I'm done. - musubi Jan 13, 17:01 1
      - I was commenting more on the first paragraph on the IM. Olbermann and Moore - TWuG Jan 13, 17:04
  - Olberman doesn't even really compare--he's never condoned violence toward anyone. I ran across this blog today--it destroys the "both sides are just - Trish Jan 13, 16:58 2
    - This is that McEwan, right? - Stephen Jan 13, 18:30
    - [deleted]
  - Michael Moore? Noam Chomsky? Fred Flintstone? -- nm - s.o.d. Jan 13, 16:35 4
    - Moore for sure. Ask the average liberal who Chomsky is and they'll give you a confused stare. nm - Dignan Jan 13, 16:45 3
      - (And, other than a movie every couple of years, Moore doesn't really have much of a platform.) nm - Dignan Jan 13, 16:47 2
        
        is Oliver Stone considered a liberal? or just a nut? -- nm - Beaker Jan 13, 16:50 1
        
        I just consider him a director/writer. -- nm - Trish Jan 13, 17:01
- In a non-judgmental, tolerant way. -- nm - David Jan 13, 16:08 16
  - "We just think you might be more comfortable in this school over here, with other kids of your own kind." nm - ralph wiggum Jan 13, 16:09 15
    - What's housing like in Australia? -- nm - David Jan 13, 16:13 14
      - If you are trying to escape racism, Australia is probably not the place to go. nm - ralph wiggum Jan 13, 16:15 13
        
        I'm pretending that the thread stopped with this quip. -- nm - David Jan 13, 16:56

        I really, really, really don't want to keep seeing the picture of that kid who died to save his brother. nm - ralph wiggum Jan 13, 16:22 8
        
        I'm kind of constantly offended by the news here. they're all too tied up with the current affair/today tonight sensationalism. -- nm - mafic Jan 13, 16:28 7
        
        I can see that. The news here is just as parochial and boring but there's no post-news "the household product that might kill your children" show - Roger More Jan 13, 16:41 2
        
        Frontline is great! (Though it's weird to see Rob Sitch with all that hair.) nm - ralph wiggum Jan 13, 16:47
        
        yeah, the standard news is no worse than anywhere, except for the constant shilling of the scandal show that's up next. -- nm - mafic Jan 13, 16:46
        
        It also just makes you realize what a small (population-wise) country it is. Local news is effectively national news. nm - ralph wiggum Jan 13, 16:30 3
        
        (Sorry to change the subject) - Dignan Jan 13, 16:46 2
        
        So you admit that I was right. (nm) - musubi Jan 13, 16:54
        
        This is what I've been sayin!! (I've just started reading Best Served Cold and now feel the need to go reread the First Law series.) nm - ralph wiggum Jan 13, 16:49
        
        All the racists drowned? -- nm - Dano Jan 13, 16:20
        
        But look how God felt about that... nm - Dignan Jan 13, 16:19
Did Wilbon lose his mind when he joined espn fulll time? "start Kolb for 8 games and Vick for 10 if it goes to an 18 game season" -- nm - Beaker Jan 13, 16:04
