If our sons should feel that way, I would be happy to have Jack as my son in law one day. He's very adorable. I also think his carefulness will be a nice balance to my own son's recklessness. The ying to his yang if you will.

That picture takes you from likely bi-curious to 100% gay

The practice of medicine sits at this weird intersection of capitalism, communism and charity. I think about it every day but, unfortunately, many doctors have to choose between making a fair salary or curing illness. I do agree that doctors are way behind in implementing technological advances to run a more efficient and patient-friendly practice - however, part of the problem is that the system doesn't incentivize regular doctors to do this.

And a side note about the prescription refilling: this is actually the fault of the legal world (which, incidentally, is a huge factor behind many of the ways in which the medical world is fucked up). If a doctor refills a prescription over the phone - i.e. doesn't see the patient regularly - he or she can be legitimately sued if there are adverse effects from the drugs. It is considered malpractice if a doctor doesn't monitor for these side effects.

Next time you see a lawyer, make sure to thank him.

Please. Lexapro?

We can't refill your prescriptions over the phone because heavy antipsychotics come with great responsibility.

I have visited the Liberty Bell maybe 6 times in my life, and I still do not know why it's important. Why do we celebrate a bell that is supposed to represent "liberty" when it cracked! does it mean our liberty is cracked? I know they fixed it again and it still cracked... seems like a bad omen for us.

I haven't laughed so much for a very long time

I saw this moment coming the moment you purchased the chainsaw. Very funny. Just do what people like you do and call a contractor (men or women, really) who know about this these things and give up the dream. You are good at other things.

Hate to add to your angst...but the docksiders were from the girls department. Your feet were so narrow, boys shoes didn't fit you well enough! Much love, MOM

This has to be the funniest thing Jeff C. Has ever written. I am crying with laughter. It is muted laughter as I am sitting outside my 3 yr olds room holding the door shut with my left hand as he screams about this or the other, trying anything to keep from going to sleep. My right hand is iPad typing this comment. The idea of Jeff's parents effing him up couldnt ring more true right now as I wonder what this screaming night routine will mean for my son in 30 years.

I couldn't agree more. Touch screen + Retina and I'd be done. Keep your backlist keyboard if you want. But the guy in the store, who seemed incredibly young and hipsterish, said it wasn't likely. "Poor user experience" he said. Huh.

Re: MacBook Air vs. iPad 3

Lancesimmons — Sat, 31 Mar 2012 23:45:05 -0000

Wouldn't it be great if they would just make an Air with retina display + touch screen (and backlit keyboard) so this would be an easy desicion? Pinche Apple...

This is actually true. I swear.

No word of lie, when I was a kid, there was a serious scandal in my small NH town regarding sheep rape. Evidently, some sheep rapist (or drunken teenager pulling a truly bizarre prank) tied up sheep and had sex with them. The rapists left used condoms and a tied up sheep. This happened like 2-3 times. It was in the papers. My father was part of a team of the neighbourhood watch (vigilantes) that staked out the sheep rape barn for the rapist.

Naturally, my friends and I had a field day with this, accusing each other being the sheep rapist and speculating which deviant in our class was the culprit. I guess what I am trying to say is that there is some precedent here for bestiality. (Or I am just foisting my own sexual curiosity onto this post?")

I am sure it was a nice day with the kids.

They were still epic though

If this were possible in high school, the pranks would have been epic.

So glad I can help. Also, you can picture me doing 20 pushups and 50 situps every morning and night...which I've been doing the last 2 weeks.

I cannot stop laughing. Whenever I feel down, I am going to reload this entry and read it over and over until I feel better. About myself, that is. ;)

I got some pretty great emails during the "moist" and "Edward" periods. Pretty brilliant, I have to say.
