Have some fun today!
I AM SICK
Sorry the blog has been so quiet. I have been pretty sick and have to sick days so I have been coming to the office. Fever of 101 on and off. I feel a little better today but it is probably the aspirin.
Stay tuned. In the meantime, if some of you folks can post something interesting, please do!

Hand of Feste Delineates the Adrenal Gland
Just an interesting case I did earlier this morning. I got some more explicit pics, but am holding off, so as not to flip out the weak-ass of stomach.

Teddy Roosevelt speaks to 21st Century America
Theodore Roosevelt’s ideas on Immigrants and being an AMERICAN in 1907:
“In the first place, we should insist that if the immigrant who comes here in good faith becomes an American and assimilates himself to us, he shall be treated on an exact equality with everyone else, for it is an outrage to discriminate against any such man because of creed, or birthplace, or origin. But this is predicated upon the person’s becoming in every facet an American, and nothing but an American…There can be no divided allegiance here. Any man who says he is an American, but something else also, isn’t an American at all. We have room for but one flag, the American flag… We have room for but one language here, and that is the English language… and we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a loyalty to the American people.”
Theodore Roosevelt 1907
Pretty sage words from one hundred years ago…
Week In Review
File under: Week 50 of 2006.
This week’s first story of political correctness gone awry comes to us from SeaTac. Of course, they “fixed†the problem by putting the trees back up and agreeing to discuss other religious symbols next year. Right.
It is gray season here in Chicago with the weather turning from brutally cold to just shitty and gray. The snow we got last Friday was mostly this week a misty foggy wet mess that mostly prevented the sun from reaching the Earth and causing me to pine for Florida and sunnier climes. We did see higher temps and some limited sunshine, so it isn’t all bad.
We lost a sports icon this week with the death of Lamar Hunt. That guy changed professional sports in a way that no other has.
Once again this week, we don’t need to vote on Fucktard of the Week because we have a clear and convincing winner in the form of China Arnold. How could she microwave her baby? OMG. I say she should suffer the same fate.
Perpetual Fucktard Fred Phelps and his “church†of hatemongers were ordered to pay the costs associated with service of a suit against them. What dipshits these people are! I wish he would just get hit by a bus so me and Zappa Crappa (the rest of you are welcome to join us as well) can go protest at his funeral with signs that say “God Hates Evangelical Fucktardsâ€. I’d like to personally microwave Rev. Phelps and his entire congregation.
There is a new “Ripper†in Ipswich and he is on a rampage. Once caught, he will be immediately vaulted to the rank of Fucktard.
Our final note on fucktardary this week comes from those dolts at the UN. Banky Moon (no apparent relations to the Rev. Sun Young Moon) is replacing Coffee Anan as the leader of that less than illustrious organization. Go get ‘em Banky.
Evil Knievel has had enough of Kanye West and has filed suit to stop a video from being broadcast. Perhaps if he hadn’t broken so many bones during his career, he might be able to get a grip.
Dr. Death, Jack Kervorkian, is due to be parolled soon. He is said to be in very frail health and has promised not to assist in any suicides. I bet he doesn’t keep that promise and offs himself shortly post release. We shall see.
Speaking of doctors, does anyone find it ironic or strange that the director of the World Health Organization’s Department of HIV/AIDS Is named Dr. De Cock and that they are advocating circumcision to reduce the potential number of AIDS victims?
I consider myself a Mustang purist and enthusiast. I own a 1971 Convertible and have since I bought it over 15 years ago from the guy who ordered it from Ford in 1970. That gives me the right to scream BLASPHEMY when I read this article. WTF are they thinking at Ford? The story does promise “muscle car heaven in 2008â€, so I am ready for all that. It should fit in nicely with my current oil addiction issues.
OK, this just has to be one of the weirdest things ever and was reported earlier in the week on the blog. But then we have a story about a Canadian guy with no heartbeat. This headline was a tad creepy too, not to mention the contents of the article. Eww. At least the tallest man in the world has a heart beat and does not have seven legs and genetalia from both genders (at least not to our knowledge).
I will be gone on vacation for the next couple of weeks. You all keep the blog rolling and have safe, happy and very merry holidays and Christmases!

A sad passing
Some of you may remember posts by me over the last couple of years about me re-connecting with old friends. One of those was my friend Bill L. and I posted pics of him with the Rolling Stones and Drew Barrymore (the Bloglord may still have those pics) that he had taken in his career as a camera operator doing work with Stone Phillips and ABC and finally as an independant cameraman.
I learned today that he passed away on Monday. He was 44 years old (a few days younger than me) and is survived by his wife and two children, along with his parents, two brothers and a sister. He won an Oscar last year for cinematography for a film he did for the History Channel on Opus Dei. He and I got together earlier this year after not seeing each other for about 15 years or so. He was one of my oldest and best friends and I am devastated by the news. I nearly killed him in a car accident when we were 16 years old. They think he died of heart failure, but an autopsy will apparently be performed.
RIP my old friend.

Sometimes drug testing goes a little too far.
A STORY ABOUT A VERY LONG ARMED DUDE:
Politically correct Holiday Greetings (yes, from my e-mail)
To My Liberal Friends:
Please accept with no obligation, implied or implicit, our best wishes for an environmentally conscious, socially responsible, low stress, non addictive, gender neutral celebration of the winter solstice holiday, practiced within the most enjoyable traditions of the religious persuasion of your choice, or secular practices of your choice, or secular persuasion and/or traditions of others, or their choice not to observe religious or secular traditions at all.
We also wish you a financially successful, personally fulfilling and medically uncomplicated recognition of the generally accepted calendar year 2007, but not without due respect for the calendars of choice of other cultures.
To My Republican Friends:
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year and may God bless you and yours in 2007.
