Holding off on any more medical time killing commentary.. I just don't like re-reading those entries so I'll wait and do a wrap up when it makes sense.. should be soon, but you never know.
On a related topic - remember all those "quit smoking" ads? The most recent one with the crying child in the airport and before that disgusting lung noises, hole in the throat guy, etc...So the newest one is very bothersome. It seems to run during sports shows but maybe it has been widespread. It's the one with the woman and her damn amputated fingers and toes. She holds up her hands and it looks like she had a lawn-mowing accident. Most of the fingers are clipped off in the middle and you can't get to the TV remote fast enough. (I just did this and switched to a soap opera for 60 seconds until all was safe in missing finger land).. Of course, she says, this was all because of smoking. She had 16 or 17 (she says)..question one: wouldn't you know EXACTLY how many fingers and toes you lost, not just an estimate?? question two: after the first amputation or second or third, wouldn't you throw your cigarettes OUT the FREAKING window???? I assume she kept smoking until she could no longer throw a bowling ball??
A side note -- If this wasn't enough motivation, have you ever seen the price of cigarettes? $50 a carton -- for the crummy brands..I recall during my service years you could get a carton for ONE dollar on the base. Maybe this woman is a veteran?
