dropping in to wish all the dads out there a very Happy Father's Day - hey, we get sum today! also to give a big shout of grats out to the man, GM - in case anyone needs reminding, he's a stand up feller of the highest order - a cooler dude one will not find - thanks again, GB GM

i fall into this camp, as well - any "luxuriant" risk of life falls flat for me. dunno, i was surrounded by a ton of misery and untimely deaths when growing up, mostly drug/alcohol related. so many people succumbed from our 'hood, great majority under the age of 21(4 family members included up in that). makes a person value the life they were given, and to be witness to such senseless and heartbreaking loss at an impressionable age turns one sour on thrill seeking sorts - suffice to say that it took awhile for me to fully grasp this concept - i was a notorious drunk driver for a good 3/4 ye

Dr. Robert - "you really don't need those balls ... do you?" Occasionally, Liston's speed and showmanship actually were a hindrance to his operations. Once, he took a patient's #### off along with the leg that was being amputated. His most famous (and possibly apocryphal) mishap was the operation where he was moving so fast that he took off a surgical assistant's fingers as he cut through a leg and, while switching instruments, slashed a spectator's coat. The patient and the assistant both died from infections of their wounds, and the spectator was so scared that he'd been stabbed that h

my posting history is about as apolitical as one could be up 'round these parts - the Clinton barb was meant in jest, not slander. carry on.
