Terri Schiavo ... Part 3
Today, I am going to play Devil's Advocate. What if everything that I have said so far about the basics of Terri's case is wrong? What if Michael Schiavo is right? What if Terri's present condition is the result of a tragic malpractise in which doctors failed to treat the potassium imbalance because...

Thinking About Terri Schiavo, Part 2
After reviewing my research from a couple of years ago and updating myself on the recent news reports, I have some carefully considered thoughts on the Schiavo situation. For the time being, I am going to lay aside certain issues. (1) We will not consider the general Christian moral imperative to...

Thinking About Terri Schiavo
This is a repost from October 2003. I bring it up again to lay groundwork for another post that I will write this afternoon or tomorrow morning concerning my current thoughts and impressions on the recent actions in this situation. This case really disturbs me. Apart from the implications of...

As I’ve Matured...
I’ve learned that you cannot make someone love you. All you can do is stalk them and hope they panic and give in. I’ve learned that one good turn gets most of the blankets. I’ve learned that no matter how much I care, some people are just jerks. I’ve learned that it takes years to build up trust,...

Follow-Up on the Accident
Just came back from my chiropractor, who had me come in even though he usually doesn't see patients on Tuesday mornings. There's apparently a good bit of soft tissue damage, which my chiro says is normal. No serious injury. He says I will probably be sore for several days, maybe even a couple of...

My First Traffic Accident
I've been driving for 20 years, and I had my first accident (with me behind the wheel) today. There's this tricky place to merge from eastbound traffic to westbound traffic on a heavily travelled local street, and I was waiting my turn to merge. I thought I had an opening and started to go, only to...

The Michael Jackson Trial
I used to like Michael Jackson. When he was a nice, relatively normal, young black male, I thought he was very handsome, very talented, and very deserving of the fame and fortune that he was amassing. I do not feel that way now. Michael Jackson used to look like a man. Now he looks like a bad...

More Adventures With My Insane Coworker
I've been cold all day. Part of it is the cleanse -- a normal side-effect of burning fat. But part of the cold is my insane coworker who must be going through menopause or something. The office had just gotten to a nice, comfortable 74 degrees this afternoon, and she walks in, says "It's really...

Laughing at Myself
A while back, I read in an interview question that my favourite actor liked Thai food, specifically Tom Yum Gai. I like Thai, but I was not familiar with the Thai names for the foods I like. So I was reminded of Tom Yum Gai today, and decided to find out what it was. I was amazed to find that it is...
