With a nod to Chief at Freedom Dogs, who got to the title long before I did.
King Banaian, my friend and NARN colleague, is apparently out of surgery.
Gary Gross forwards this email from King’s wife Barbara:
King had his gall bladder removed…[minor complication redacted – who needs private medical info, anyway?]…his hospitalization will be prolonged until Thursday or Friday…Barring complications, he will recuperate on the 4th floor of the hospital.
I’m always reticent about mentioning peoples’ conditions or prognoses – too many “last minute “oops” episodes of Scrubs, perhaps – but so far, so good. Keep your prayers coming for the whole family.
If you see him, give him my best wishes. We need him back on the front lines. He’s one of the best equipped to fight the DFL insanity.
Also, Lady Logician informs us through Margaret Martin that David Strom is also hospitalized. Best wishes and prayers go out to David as well.
Once againg your hyporocersy shows you to be the fool. You are not “always reticent about mentioning other peoples’ contidions”, because, you rejioced when Saddam Hussein, WHO WAS NEVER A THREAT TO THE US, was killed. Clearley you are a phyocrite.
You dont seem all that concerned about teh conditions of poeple in Gwonamano bay who are sufering from moch worse than a little gall blader infection, but do you ever mention THEM, NO YOU DONT, you talk all self-rightouesly about your “firends”, although I’m not, sure if you have ever called “King” a “Friend” before, so I’ll have to take you at your werd, and quelch my assumption that he is a pig, if he is your ferend then hopefully he escapes the neocon trap, the trap of being A NEOCON NAD a pig, and furthermore who ever said that General Peterayes was the architecte of the surge, when I read a link that showed taht is was really, the responsibiklity of the tribal shakes and even THEY SAY that, Iraq was not behind 9/11 so we invated THEIR COUNTRY WITHOUT any rason, so when you say youer concerned you have four gingers, pointing back at, you when you point at them, where is your concern for the people who are being sufiocated by gas prices when are you, going to write about them?
I don’t know why i bother with thes blog, I will leave all you lilioinslipuitisns to be idiots while I rejoiec in my voctirfyffy.
That. Was. Awesome.
Ryan?
Please send my best wishes, and also please — as appropriate — update us on his recovery.
