Jeez, I don't know how I missed this:
S. Clay Wilson was moved out of intensive care Thursday afternoon, capping a pretty darn good week for the injured cartoonist.
"He's in much better shape," Lorraine Chamberlain, Wilson's long-time partner, said Friday morning. "This means he's not in danger of dying."
Wilson, 67, was in intensive care for two-and-a-half weeks after sustaining severe injuries on Nov. 1, injuries most likely incurred while falling and striking his head as he walked home drunk from a friend's apartment.
Chamberlain said Wilson is slowly regaining his ability to communicate with the help of a speech therapist. On Monday, she said, "I leaned in real close to his face and said, 'Baby, do you remember you love me?' And he grinned from ear to ear and pooched out his lips so I could kiss him."
But she added that the cartoonist is still suffering from aphasia, an increased difficulty of summoning the right words. "The part of the brain that was injured," she notes, "makes him weigh a question so long that you don't think he's going to answer it at all.
"The irony is not lost on anyone that Wilson is the most talkative person in the world, a real motormouth. We're so used to not being able to get a word in edgewise."
Here's some info on benefits. Naturally, he has massive medical bills and no money to pay them...

I once experienced hysteria on great early 70's acid. My facial features did not change as an internal needle swung back and forth between profound grief and utter hilarity. The point I was trying to make is that grief and laughter could not occupy the same space (and the mid point of the needle cancelled both out). The same goes for love and hate--you can't experience them at the same instant.
And if you're a shit-eating weasal you have the life of a shit-eating weasal--even if you think you're God's gift to humankind.

You're responsible for what you can affect. But most of what happens to be has nothing whatsoever to do with their own choices. For example, you're fated to live in the 21st century, as opposed to Neanderthal times or the glorious future age of the galactic empire; that has a lot to do with how your life proceeds.
Then there's the small issue of external factors. All the bullshit Buddhist wisdom in the world can't convince me that the people of Gaza are "responsible" for the IDF bombs landing in their neighbourhoods. Or that the rape victim is responsible for being murdered by a sadistic fuck. Or the baby born in a gutter...
So, yea, you've got responsibility for the millimetre width of shit you control (even that is arguable, tho), while the mile-wide world determines everything else.

It is my life....how in the hell can I not be responsible for it?
I wish you could tell this to my Japanese friend who's mother just passed away. If she stays here she's not completely happy, if she goes back she'll be expected to be her father's maid, which included getting up and cooking at 6 am. That's the way fambly works there. Pisses me off.
Ms. Farenheit, if it's bad out and the parents are present, it's far less risky to let her stay.
"It is my life....how in the hell can I not be responsible for it?"
Like many things it can be carried to extremes. People have things happen to them that they cannot control. Some are born poor and sick and others are not.
You can do the best you can given your circumstances and there's no use complaining that someone else was born with more.
still - the fact that someone was born on third base does not give them the right to think they chose to hit a triple, ya know?
Fucking Kronk can't go out of business soon enough... - dave™©
This morning's edition looked kind of emaciated. Notice the Seattle P-I is on the block, can the Macy's Daily be far behind?
And, for that which we indeed do have responsibility for, the choices are often not exactly clear, and yet taking any action at all (even not taking action) has enormous future implications that we can not even begin to conjure. So, we're hardly responsible, beyond trying to do the "right" thing in the dark.
F. McLintock's is a steak house that specializes in oak-grill. They serve the most deliciously-seasoned pinquinto beans on the side, and pan-fried potatoes with onions and pepper. Highly recommended
I'll remember that if I ever make it back to Pismo Beach. We ate at a barbecue place in Shell Beach that was recommended. It was very good, but kinda pricey. I can't remember the name, however.

I was in India and looking out the taxi window at a bunch of urchins begging in the traffic median, and the extremely rich guy we were working with says, "You Americans don't understand karma". I was really tempted to take his wallet, break his arms, and shove him into the road to learn about Karma, but was too chickenshit.

My plan is to wait until his mother calls, which I think will be shortly, and see if she offers, or if his father will drive. If she doesn't call soon, I will call and throw that idea out there.

No, it was on that main road that runs just below the freeway on the ocean side. Kind of a medium-sized place. And, yeah, Shell Beach and Pismo Beach just kinda run into each other. I wish I'd picked up a card or some matches from the place so I could remember the name.

Hi Uncle B!
Sorry, busy unpacking groceries.
i love Thinking People's music of any kind.
Chi Dy, that sounds elitist. I think a wee bit, and feel a lot. I don't know shit from shinola (intentional) about classical music, but I listen to it and know what I like.
BTW, if you get pissed off, I am willing to appease you with strawberry jello wrestling.
In other words, conservatives don't want to return to Franklin Roosevelt's policies, they want to continue George W. Bush's.
Foser gives 'em more credit than they deserve. The history of the last thirty years can be largely attributed to one goal - discrediting FDR and removing every last vestige of his policies. Especially the ones that worked.
A secondary goal was to preempt any future president from attempting the sort of thing FDR achieved. In this, the deficit is central. FDR paid for the new deal by running up the deficit. Well, if your deficit is already run up to record numbers before the next FDR comes along, then he's gonna be hamstrung. Even if there is a will, in other words, there just ain't no way.
And that's where we are now. It remains to be seen whether Obama is akin to Roosevelt. But it's a safe bet he's more inclined to follow FDR's path than, say, Ronald Reagan's.
Trouble is, even with a record deficit, we're still talking about government stepping up and bailing out regular folks. That wasn't supposed to happen. Everybody was supposed to nod sadly at the deficit and reluctantly agree that maybe we can't afford things like Social Security, Medicare and public education after all.
So it's time to ratchet up the anti-Roosevelt rhetoric.
It pretty much comes down to that.

But in the real world, lots and lots of people have real struggles that they're not up to: their house and family get blown to smitereens. Their loved ones leave them, leaving a irreparable hole in their heart. They've been knocked down by racism at every turn in their lives. And a billion other things. Sure, a handful of them are strong enough to survive, even shine. And hundreds of millions of them get angry, lose patience, strike out at the world. Let's point to the handful of astonishing strong ones and tell the hundreds of millions that their misfortune and anger is their own fault.

Nah, it's an armoire, a chest - sitting on an iron frame. I think it's about 4 or 5' tall. Mexican yellow pine. I do like it. Good storage and of its kind, rather petite. It's in a kind of a mini-antique mall up the street from me - I'm pretty sure I can get it for $90 while they are asking $139....
Starting with the Philly game, they'd locked up home field throughout the playoffs. They had nothing to play for, and rested their starters.
That's why ours are healthy and yours aren't.
DuaneV, AnarchoSyndicalist | 01.10.09 - 8:03 pm
rested their starters??

Eli has played in every game.
nice try. Giants = lame duck floundering agianst the horizon while a jacked Egales team takes aim.
say good night Giants.
since Plaxico got . . .um injured, the giants are like 1-3.
euphronius Jenkins | 01.10.09 - 8:01 pm | #
They've adjusted. Jacobs is healthy. Once they sewed up the division, they played not to get hurt.
The wide receivers will be less important tomorrow than the runners are. And they have three good ones. Westbrook can't carry the entire team.
I've watched them long enough not to be complacent. But I still think it's against the odds that they would lose twice to the same team at home.
westbrook hasnt been over 75% since like 2003.

Eli didn't play in the fourth quarter of their last game.
My condolences to Jeffraham. The Titans had a great year, and some very bad luck today. I was pulling for the Ravens (my kid is at Hopkins and is a very loyal Baltimore partisan), but the Birds got a very lucky break on the game clock and the Titans had three lousy breaks on turnovers. It was clear to me that Tennessee was much the better team, but that's the way it goes.
See, this is what I miss. I can't talk smack any more this season!

Jints, otoh, are 12-4.
But I really don't see them losing to the Iggles twice at home in one season.
Brooklyn Girl, shady dame
And they took the last three weeks off.
westbrook isnt hurt. well, he is 75% i guess.

jdw: the Titans moved the ball much better, and had three times the first downs of the Ravens.
The Titans outscored the Ravens in every category except two: turnovers (3 to 0) and score, 13-10.
And of course, that last one is all that matters.
But to reiterate, I was pullin' for the Ravens.

Thanks, dear one. But there's a big whopping tumor in her left lung, unfortunately. But we're hoping it's a treatable type (even if they have to remove the lung) and also hoping that it has not metastasized.
My dinner-- greek sausages, couscous, a turnip/carrot soup of my own creation, a salad, and for dessert (don't tell Mrs. Moe, it's a surprise) the cookies I made last night--is nearing completion. I should go put it all together. We're watching some chick flick after, so maybe I'll break out the computer to keep myself awake. Or not.

DuaneV are you saying Jacobs is better than Adrian Peterson?
because the Eagles seemed to shut Peterson down.
Oh, gromit, I did not see that part. 
I do hope she is n the mend, it is still better that she is getting the fluid taken care of, that could be worse in the short term than a tumor. And yes, hopefully it is treatable. Best to all of you.

But yeah, the Giants had a GREAT november.
Watch out:
Mercury -- the Messenger God in mythology and the ruler of transportation and communication turns retrograde in Aquarius on January 11. This is the first of the four Mercury retrogrades happening in 2009 and lasts till January 31 or February 1 (depending upon your time zone), when he halts and begins his return to direct motion through the zodiac
Mercury is the planet that rules all forms of communication and any time a planet turns retrograde it is time to review. So, when Mercury turns around and goes back through territory it's already traversed, it is time for you, too, to travel back. Don't try to institute plans for the future. Instead see if you can lay the groundwork to provide a secure foundation. Mercury's current placement in Aquarius makes this a wonderful time to break away from old habits and ideas. Mercury will move back into Capricorn on January 21 in its retrograde motion creating disruptions or breakdowns in communications and administrative details. Since this sign also signifies ambitions, it might see us trying to push through own agendas and gain status or rise in life. Jupiter, the Sun, and Mars will also all cross Mercury as he moves along his backwards path, and those days could prove to be significant.
Mercury conjuncts Jupiter on January 19 -- this might be a time for reflections, and old friends can come back into our lives. On January 20, Inauguration Day in the United States, the Sun will conjunct Mercury in the first degrees of Aquarius. The new President is sure to have some very important messages for us on how he is going to clean up the mess left for him from the past and with Aquarius involved, he may have some new and unique ideas. Retrograde Mercury conjuncts Mars in Capricorn on January 27, and Venus will be sending them some positive energy at the same time. The Solar eclipse of January 26 formed by the Sun and Moon will definitely make us ready for some changes.

Dan Snyder is really the most inept football franchise owner there ever was.
But he's Chimpy, for some reason.
During Snyder's ownership, he's taken a Super Bowl team to fucking perpetual mediocrity, but makes money doing it.

In fact I suspect Windows 7 might be pretty good.
Vista, however, is a complete disaster. If it were any other company, this would have been a death blow. As MS is the world's richest and most ruthless software company, it will only be an embarrassment.
But if Windows 7 stalls, MS will be in real trouble.

"Do they still have "Shut Down" in the StartUp menu?"
the most intuitive way for me to shut down is to pull the plug out.
David, Vista is such an epic fail that they won't let anyone in our agency install it. All the Windows folks are still using XP. Meanwhile, the MacOS and Linux folks are happily doing their own thing.

------------------------------
An "eternal" flame at Bullhead City's new veterans memorial park that only lasted until city officials received a $961 gas bill has been re-lit following complaints by veterans groups.
The Medal of Honor Memorial at the Arizona Veterans Memorial Park alongside the Colorado River was lit on Veterans Day in November. When the bill arrived in late December, city officials were stunned.
"It caught us by surprise," City Manager Tim Ernster said Thursday. "What we decided to do for the time being is to turn the flame on ... for special events, for Veterans Day, Fourth of July, Memorial Day — those types of activities."
The flame was extinguished on Monday. The Mohave Valley Daily News published a story Friday quoting city officials and disgruntled veterans who had worked to pay for and build the memorial before turning it over to the city.
The flame was back on by midmorning Friday following a meeting of city officials.
"What happened was really a miscommunication," city spokesman Steve Johnson said. "The issue came up one day and it was never intended to be shut off."
Johnson said the flame is impressive, but city parks officials are looking at ways to put a smaller burner in place and only use the larger one at special events.
"We're looking at alternatives, because $1,000 a month in these economic times is certainly a consideration," Johnson said.
Tralf, the thing is that I've always been suspicious of the Toba bottleneck hypothesis.
JR, it looks like the crux of that analysis is that there were only two mtDNA coalescent events in the dataset between 80K-90K ya which gives an effective pop size of 17K females. Might be a pretty high variance on that estimate.
"Is he on meds? Spike finally came in, and the wound behind his ear looks worse than I though. It doesn't seem to be bother him, but I'm thinking he should probably see a vet."
oh yeah, it's real bad. they shaved his back to work on it...about the size of a silver dollar, stellate, with loads of seeping puss. shot him with a massive dose of antibiotic, gave us 3 syringes of pain meds and we gotta clean it with betadiene 2x a day and take him back for second antibiotic shot in 2 weeks.

Aw, poor beastie. Spike's isn't that bad, but if looks like in a couple of days it's not healing I'll take him in. It's right behind the ear in his favorite scratching spot, so he hits it when he scratchs, which isn't promoting healing.

Hee! I didn't wanna go there.
I fear there's no coming back.
Are we still examining that "Feelings" thread from last night?
MP
Is it time for "Wildfire" again?

"JR, it looks like the crux of that analysis is that there were only two mtDNA coalescent events in the dataset between 80K-90K ya which gives an effective pop size of 17K females. Might be a pretty high variance on that estimate."
my thoughts EXACTLY.
Might be a pretty high variance on that estimate.
Tralfaz
The thing is that effective and actual population size are two different things, and that population structures are very important.
As he points out, and actual population size as low as the proposed biottleneck posits would mean a much later colonization of Europe.. something that we know is false.
my thoughts EXACTLY.

Try to forget
somehow i thought art blakey was from baltimore, but he's actually from pennsylvania.
greatness abounds.
As a corollary, people also excuse their bad things as being for some greater good, because no one wants to be evil in their own mind.
JR, kerosene and a match
Evil is a harsh word. I avoid it, myself.
Wow, Arizona is schooling Carolina right now. Who knew?
Tralfaz
Me.

(looks perplexed) I was told there would be no math on this thread.

Only when I'm not thinking about you, Zod.
Vicki
Oh, that would hurt, except I'm glad a disease-rideen skank like you would stay away. How many men have you fucked, anyway? Seems like a lot, just from the ones you admit to from this site, huh? I guess a tired and lonely old tart like you has nothing else to offer, so you you throw your worn out old ass out there for anyone who will nibble on it, huh?
Sad old gal.
Gomez was right about you after all, wsn't he?
The thing is that there is no record of such a bottleneck in the technology.
You would expect a technological collapse, or at least stagnation.
I'm rooting for the Steelers tomorrow cuz I hate the boltz. That is all.
whoa...going for it?

Not unless the aliens helped.
Thank you Deacon.
took the points, smart move.

Buckeye ...
Why does everyone bait me?

Evil to me is the cold witnessing of human agony, without a look back.

Die now, in whatever manner seems most painful to you.
Um...Phillies? World Series?
I'm talking trash.
Zod decided to thow down.

Hold it, hold it, hold it!
Would you ask a MAN how many WOMEN he's fucked?
Do you adhere to the double standard?
Wait.
A kickoff.

I'm not following.
And what technology was there 70K ya?
Again, not an expert. This is a field where people use math to wring way more out of both DNA and archeo/paleo data than I'm usually comfortable with.

MP
Evil to me is a coward who attacks people anonymously through multiple personalities on a weblog, because he is such a pathetic toad that he can't find true friends in his real life. Well, maybe not evil, maybe just pathetic. Yeah, thats it.
Motherfucker! Another interception!
Bam!
general zod is gomez??
p.s. i think 'red rocket' is such a great band name, there must already be a band by that name, right?

Bloody hell.

Because it's fun?
My friend's father has gone completely around the bend with his conspiracy theories. I told my friend I was going to invite you down her to 'talk' with him. It would be fun to watch.
Sad old gal.
Gomez was right about you after all, wsn't he?
You still showing that little skinny ass of your's Zod?
Git yo ass back up o'nat porch fore you git yo little ass scrambled, boy.

Why are you so concerned about what Vicki does?
It's HER life.
You don't hear any of the regulars complaining about her.

Wow. Fitzgerald.
Jiminy crickets they scored again.

OK.
Hmmmmm ...
I KNOW!!! I could don the Scarlet and Grey and watch a BCS bowl game!
That oughta do it!

.And what technology was there 70K ya?
Tralfaz
Shitloads. We're talking Neadertal and archaic moderns here.
Clothing, jewelry, art, religion, et, etc, etc.
wow. this game will be ova by halftime.
Nobody knows exactly what to do in a goddamned crisis, but just walking away from it is the most cowardly way to not confront it.
Chimpy did that several times over.
Great Commander in Chief he was.
Gee, remember when almost all of us thought the Panthers were going to crush the Cardinals?
Bloody hell.
This.
HoneyBearKellyGoGiants
oh. my. 17" uncut?
Yes, Zod is Gomez.
I, the fokowi speaking to troll, figured that one out.
Didn't I Zod?
Great. This thread is rapidly becoming obese, and the trollistas aren't helping to slim it down.
isn't that guy talkin' the same one that said it was gonna be : 21-20 pretty soon ... he'll probably retract any minute
Chimpy IS consistent.
FAILED at EVERYTHING.
This will also make Easterbrook crazy, so it's all good.
It would be fun to watch.
Buckeye ...
you better have some high-rent bourbon handy.

We did almost have a jello wrestling match today, Vicki and I....
A Mac notebook battery that last 8 hours? No way. That would represent something like a 300% improvement. Mac batteries have never lasted anywhere near what they were claimed to, in my experience.
Didn't take long for that new facade to come off, did it?
Word to the wise: once a troll, always a troll.
Don't ever think otherwise...
Only when called, billy b, only when called.
Wanna put the Fillies on the field against the Ravens? heh.
My boys already plucked da Iggles and sent that ass back up I-95.
Ask McNabb what he tought about the game.

ms fahrenheit/stop war
Time for some cheese and crackers.
Iraq, Katrina, Global Economy.
Which one of these did Chimpy handle well?
Zod is Gomez? Looks like I lose in the pool. I had Anonymous Regular is Gomez.

MP
Like I said, he's consistent.
FUBAR everything he touches.
omg...this is a fucking crushing.
Seems like multiple personalities abound
Tralfaz the battery in the macbook I have now lasts about 4 hours so for me it would be a 100% improvement.
And that's bit torrenting, youtube watching, audio streaming and Eschaton commenting hours.
Zod is Gomez?
Doubtful. It's been around a LOT longer.
It even has its own blog!
Why are you so concerned about what Vicki does?
It's HER life.
You don't hear any of the regulars complaining about her.
Terry C, Footloose & Fancyfree
Actually - I couldn't giva a fat rats ass - My issue is that She loves to make it all our issue. OVER AND OVER AND OVER.
I'll make a deal with you Terry C. , because you are one of the more normal ones that post in here.....
The minute I don't have to read about Vicki's fucking love life, or NTodd's latest crusade, then you can tell me to shut up for-ever. until then, no deal. Because as long as those people make their personal life part of this blog, I will comment as I want to.
OK?

The only sane response...

I have a 1.5 yo 17" BacBook Pro and it gets pretty much what is advertised...well over 3 hours with no special care to minimize battery drain.
General Zod
Asshole.
OK?
General Zod
No.

Fuck, sciblogs is still in limbo.
The minute I don't have to read about Vicki's fucking love life, or NTodd's latest crusade,
You really don't have to.
i never run on batteries, i always plug in.
my laptop.
And, for the record, I LIKE hearing about NTodd's "latest crusade."
AND Vicki's love life.
So there!
My boy Joe Flacco (who played college football about 3 miles from here) is the only rookie QB to win 2 playoff games. The experts all said B'mo was stupid for picking a 1AA player in the first round.
Oops.
Right Gomez? Who the was the guy he couldn't beat out at Pittsburgh?
Wow, you guys have had good luck with batteries.
At two and half hours my macbook is pretty much spent. But it's the previous generation.
nice response. But one I expected from someone who had nothing to reply with.
Zod is Gomez? Looks like I lose in the pool. I had Anonymous Regular is Gomez.
Deacon Blues
I thought so too..
Then I realized...SIMELS!

bedtime for Ru-Jun
Craigslist, sometimes, is a good thing.
My daughter just got a great deal on an exercise bike. $20.00.
Brand new. The lady she bought it from got it for a present LAST Xmas. Unfortunately, her knees are shot and she couldn't use it.
Even better, the seller lives right across town and her sister gave my daughter a ride back home in her truck.
Zod is his own asshole.
yikes, this is brutal ...
9 days
14 hours
21 minutes
We're into single digits!!!!!Drink!!!
And, for the record, I LIKE hearing about NTodd's "latest crusade."
AND Vicki's love life.
So there!
Terry C, Footloose & Fancyfree
good for you.
I, for one couldn't care less what that egotistical fuck does or who that fucking slut beds down with. But I'm glad it interests you.
Maybe you can have NTodd include you in one of those podcasts noone except him and his girlfriend listen to......
So I guess he Gaza crisis is just added onto Obama's plate.
Jesus Christ, the Bush clan loves to shove shit off to somebody else to clean up.
Zod is his own asshole.
JR, kerosene and a match
Just like a Troll to post nasty bullshit about people just to be mean. Just reflects back on "Zod".
Die now, in whatever manner seems most painful to you.

Did that make you feel good?
I'm glad for you, Duane. now go home to Mommy.
Yep. That's their style.

Why, thank you for the compliment.
Don't tell Zod, but Attaturk has some lovely new shoes.
It would be fun to watch.
Buckeye ...

JR, kerosene and a match | 01.10.09 - 9:33 pm
Oh, he's got a well-stocked bar.
I would just to accept that I would never be invited over to dinner ever again. At least not by him, though it's possible that his wife would still invite me (his political crusades are driving her nuts).
Zod cares about Vicki, that's obvious. I mean, come on now.
It's Gomez, not saying it hasn't been around for a while, but it was Gomez then too.
My opinion, I was here when it all went down, and I'm sticking with my opinion. No one else has to.
Sheets, y'all.
cardinal shoes
No one else has to.
annie
No one will
Let's play "ignore the Troll". It'll leave.
At least not by him, though it's possible that his wife would still invite me (his political crusades are driving her nuts).
Buckeye ...
So long as she's the one doing the cooking it seems pretty obvious what the answer is...
Please don't quote the trolls.
It defeats the purpose of the killfile.
Thank you!
No one else has to.
No one does.
Then you're fools. But hey, I guess some guy suddenly calling Vicki a slut while not caring who she fucks is normal. On planet insanity, maybe.
terry
Zod is not Gomez. They are each a unique asshole.
