Monday's Missives

• "What scares me is having a gun pointed to my head," Gerard Butler said. "It's just you never know. Is this it? Is it going to be over before I even knew it was about to begin?" From an AP article asking celebs what they fear. I can't imagine where/when the Scottish lawyer turned actor would have encountered so much gun play however- I did note on IMDB that during his first role in Coriolanus he got poked in the eye with a wooden stake during rehearsal.



• I have a case that I took care of some time ago- he improved too much to keep on continuous care. He has declined and is in bad shape so I'll pick him up again tomorrow. Don't know yet if he's cognizant but, I'm curious to see if he'll remember me- we hit off real well the last time.



• My patient I was to care for tonight died before he got the privilege.



• Getting to love Community- Joel McHale is great and of course Chevy Chase is legend although, I don't know how long you can string out a sit com with a community college setting.


• The crew building the house next door have asked to use my electricity for the rest of the afternoon. I said,"Yes" foolishly- since there is probably some anti electricity loaning clause in my policy, the house will burn to the ground and insurance won't have to pay.


• Oh, and one of the guys will burn his hand trying to put the fire out and sue my rear end off.


• Can't tell you how many times folks have said to the effect to me,"My mom/grandmother (take your pick) has smoked for years and it never seems to bother her!" as I'm looking right at the person they're speaking of whose color looks gray as a mouse and it's all they can do to get air through their pursed lips after only going to the toilet and back.


• We'll believe whatever we want to believe.
