Lawyers for Catholic hospital argue that a fetus is not a person

http://www.cnn.com/2013/01/26/us/colorado-fetus-lawsuit/index.html?hpt=hp_t2



So, this is yet another reason CHI blows. You can debate all you want, but for an organization calling themselves one thing and then arguing against it because it will cost them money is ridiculous. http://www.cnn.com/2013/01/26/us/colorado-fetus-lawsuit/index.html?hpt=hp_t2

What does it say when we live in a nation that the people don't trust the government so they buy up all the guns AND the government doesn't trust the people and tries to stop them from buying all the guns? BTW, semi-automatic rifles are just the first to go. Wait until the law makers realize that a lot of pistols shoot at the same fire rate, can hold more than 10 bullets, and (shockingly) have pistol grips :P

School delayed in the morning 2 hours. Totally makes sense with the huge snowstorm that came through today. I had a whole 1/64th of an inch of snow for about 15 minutes before it melted.

With the epic flooding and the huge blizzard today, I sure am glad for all-wheel drive. Oh yeah, there has been ZERO problems!

Six years ago, Rachael and I were eleven days into her hospital stay in HRPU at Erlanger. The morning was going smoothly until right about now. She started going into labor at 27 weeks. Later in that afternoon, Zeke and Emmie were born. Just over 2 pounds each. We started our roller-coaster ride know as NICU that evening. We had heart surgeries, blood transfusions, brain bleeds, breathing problems, infections, and even a few "crashes" amongst a long list of episodes. After 70 days we were able to come home. Our adventure continued to embed our family back into the community to try and at least pay something back to ALL the wonderful people and organizations that helped us up front and behind the scenes. We made new lifelong friends throughout the process. Emmie and Zeke changed our lives and we are forever grateful! Now, six years later, we are still going strong and appreciate all the little wins we get in life. Thank you Rachael Bryant Welch for being you. Happy Birthday Zeke and Emmie.

Credit card abused. The day before they started spending it, I had to do one of the carbon paper things at Kay Jewelers in Hixson. Coincidence??? Then they created an account at Serve.com for a prepaid card using my money to reload it. Recorded a fun conversation with them (owned by AMEX) Maybe I'll post it later! :D

AMEX helps others steal your credit card info and spend YOUR money! "Serve from American Express" #amex #thieves #americanexpress #serve

We need to ban these immediately. There is no need for anyone to have a coffee mug that can have laser sights! The handle and rails allow for people to drink coffee quicker than a standard mug and therefore are extremely dangerous! Share this so we can get Congress to ban these. BTW, where is the sarcasm font button? :P http://www.thinkgeek.com/product/edfc/?rkgid=275668648&cpg=ogpla&source=google_pla&gclid=CKbTgejA0rQCFQyDnQodgSAAQA
