stadium chatter

Strib:

The Vikings are part of the cultural fabric that holds us together at a time when many forces seem to be pulling us further apart.

excuse me for a moment while I go vomit…

Seriously, I am shocked that anyone other than Ziggy Wilf and his partners should think that spending a half billion dollars on a football stadium is a good idea.

We have a real problem with our priorities in this country…

dumb ass.

A federal government exercise Monday involving low-flying planes created a panic in New York City and parts of New Jersey.

Two fighter jets escorted a low-flying Boeing 747 over lower Manhattan as part of a photo shoot.

Stan Eason of the Jersey City Police Department told WNBC that “thousands” panicked and that buildings were evacuated because residents were unaware of what was going on.

Maybe someone should inform the population when low flying planes are going to be buzzing around New York City.

We just spent the last 8 years being terrified by our own government on an almost daily basis. After that trauma it’s no surprise that this is the kind of reaction that takes place.

Someone needs to apologize for this, and then be fired, and then water boarded.

Never regained consciousness.

As a parent, I can not think of a single thing that would be more heart breaking.

After mutual agreement, coma drugs and some of the other IV drugs were stopped. The donor work-up was started. In 24 hours, the work-up was completed and the pressures in his head were as high as 90. Another neurosurgeon arrived per prompting of a neurosurgeon who works with Caleb’s dad to evaluate if all possible treatments have been tried. He concurred with this and we were reassured that our decision to withdraw some of the support was correct. This afternoon, the recipients of Caleb’s organs were located. We had a wonderful time of singing, prayer, and worship in Caleb’s room. We have taken many pictures, finger prints, and foot prints to remember him better. At 4:15 this afternoon, he was taken to the operating room and the immediate family was able to be with him when his life support was discontinued. We were able to sit at his head and hold his hand as we watched his heart stopped. It took place at 5:34.

My best wishes to Caleb’s family.

I remember when the DOW closed over 14,000. Those were the days.

Anyone predicting 5000? Lower?
