Rule 5 — Hillbilly Girl!


Doctors are nice people, you should talk to them more often...

So I had a little respiratory adventure the other night and decided to swing by the doc-in-a-box I use for some antibiotics, figuring I had a bug.

Doc listens to my chest and we wind up taking X-rays and an EKG.  Good news, my lungs are fine. So's my heart... now...

Turns out some time a couple of years back I had a heart attack (inferior infarct) and just walked through the damned thing without a clue. Tells you what my life's been like.  But my heartbeat, well...


For those of you who don't spend your spare time reading EKG's, let me offer you a quick musical interpretation...



Anyway, doc-in-a-box is sending me to see the nice cardiologist and we'll move on from there...

Paul Ryan Attacked by Rare Leaping Manatee at Iowa State Fair!

GOP VP designate Paul Ryan today barely escaped injury to today at the gums of a rare aggressive manatee at the Iowa State Fair.

Although the manatee is normally a passive, inert mass of blubber that mostly lays around waiting to be fed, this one, which appeared to be one of a mating pair, leaped several feet out of the water onto the podium with Rep. Ryan before being subdued.

Fish  & Game personnel who restrained the manatee speculated that it may have been reacting to a perceived threat to what it considered its entitled feeding grounds.

Reports are the manatees will be tagged and released back into the wild.
