DISQUS

Nah, you've just been under-rated all these years!

I don't think an endorsement indicates that I accept uncritically the entire opus. I like lots of things, but that doesn't mean I like or agree with all of them.

Woo hoo! Welcome back to the land of the living!

Clearly, your priorities are screwed up.

I didn't even think of that.

Unfortunately, I've already shredded mine. I do have a nice .jpg image, though...

My brother, given to thoughts deeper than mine, told me once: "If you subsidize something, you get more of it".

I think it applies perfectly to medicine in general and ED overcrowding in particular.

Many congrats! What's next?

Count me in the "Like it" crowd.

Owee.

Thanks for sharing, and Stand Tall.

Hehe.

...and people on SSI disability and food stamps can get IVF...

Electronic medical records wouldn't be recognizable when the water is washed out of the server, while the paper records could probably be salvaged.

I'm looking forward to the 'we had to send your data to 10 server farms all over the country to keep your data safe' privacy arguments.

Study harder. Oh, and play with the dog; it's good for the soul.

?deprecated?

I agree that it should be an opt-out, not an opt-in.

Wow! Go, man, go!

...or something in their pants. I'm decidedly unhappy about unknowns wandering the joint at 0200. Best case: plaintiffs' attorneys. Worst case: terrorists, domestic or otherwise.

Like the 'live preview' by the way. Very cool.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't his have something to do with a recent dismissal of a suit over just this same set of circumstances?

Sounds like the walked away from the table when it looked like their lawsuit exposure diminished.

Lagomorphicillin. Hahaha!

Geek. You win!

Aah, but you miss the point.

Shame is an outdated idea. To paraphrase that great writer, PJ O'Rourke, "To lean that a celebrity is a drug addict, pervert and adulterer is to have read their autobiography" is it any wonder that shame is dead as a motivating force?

Money is now the prime motivator, and more's the pity.

There's a small-claims court judge who should be rightfully villified for this crap. As it was small-claims court, there were probably no lawyers around to collect the crumbs (pun intended).

Talk about a targeted ad!


I feel bad for their residents. Yes, everyone will be impacted, but I identify most with the residents in this sort of situation.

I wonder who in LA County will be losing their jobs over this? Is there no outside supervision? I cannot believe JACHO would just pull the rug out, there had to have been warnings in the past that went unheeded.

Hmmm. It would have had the same effect if poured directly onto the snow, bypassing the mouth/bladder connection beer takes.

This was, most likely, a really good excuse for a bender.

hahah! I just wrote exactly the same post!

Oh, man...

Too bad you're not already JD'd, you could have given them your card....

Kidding.

Good case, better situation. Except for the patient.

Yes, though the bispectral thimagigger will be used against us the other way, to make sure they aren't out during conscious sedations.

Perfect.
