Living Wills

I hope everyone has learned something from the Terri Schiavo case. It is important that you get a living will to cover your wishes should something like that happen to you. Regardless of where you stand on Terri's case, you should do your loved ones the favor of not putting them in the place of the Schiavos and Schindlers. Let everyone know just what you think on the subject so these costly and apparently pointless legal battles can be avoided. Get it down on paper!

In my own case, I would like to be kept alive as long as there is reasonable hope. If my brain is as far gone as Terri's is, give up. Let me go peacefully. If there is hope of continued life, even if somewhat diminished, give me a chance please. I hope it never comes to that though. I'd rather die of a massive heart attack while making love or just plain slip away in my sleep. I'd much prefer the former though! Struck by lightning on the golf course wouldn't be bad either (after a hole in one!). Expiring while at work would be about the worst!

Michael Jackson- the faker

Did anyone see the video of that little creep heading into court ( late) yesterday? He had a bodyguard holding onto each arm to support him and looked like it was tough to even walk. A little way into the scene there were several (stupid?) fans screaming support for Michael. He quickly turned on his heels and raised his hands to wave at them. I've had back problems myself. You wouldn't do that move if your back really was bad! I suspect it hurt when he thought about the boy testifying more than when fans cheered.

Goodbye Dan Rather

I'm not one who will miss you. Hell, I probably won't even catch your last broadcast as anchor tonight. You were a passable rerporter, but weak as the anchor. CBS should have dumped you years ago. You've been losing in the ratings for a loooong time! Did you verify those "documents" yet? No?
