Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Fun fact: Seems you can replace a failing heart valve on a 77 year old woman with stage 4 cancer with barely an incision and have her walking around a few hours later.

Well, next week. That's next week.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

Aw man, now I want a Reuben.

Punishingly Intricate

Man, my friend’s bar (& msbelle’s local) caught fire last night. Nobody was hurt but it’s looking like it will take a long time to recover. And such a shitty time for it to happen! This is the second friend to lose their business to fire in the past month here. Wtf is going on??

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Yikes! Your poor friends!

Oh, man, that is shotty, lisah. So sorry for them.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

Yep super crapola. I have dinner and a margarita there almost every Monday. It’s a great small staff. The go fund me has reached its first goal, but they are all going to need several months of income.
