"List of things that will keep me from calling Dr. Kevorkian"

05/25/2007 12:45 PM

Courtesy of a discussion with STLEngineer.

So one day you find your self no longer independent. You are profoundly incapacitated and in dire circumstance. What is on your "List of things that will keep me from calling Dr. Kevorkian whenever I get incapacitated."

As the "Kurgan" rightly states "It's better to burn out than to fade away"

Top 3 list:

3. He's the family doctor of Bush and all the politicians, and he's too busy right now.

2. You don't have his phone number.

1. You're too incapacitated to call.

Seriously, if you're in that condition, you need to get a bunch of comedy movies and start watching them, or get a giant joke book and start reading.

New avatar,stds guy?

Funny you should say that, as it was a reference to shrek movies on another thread that prompted the idea. I don't watch pop culture stuff, and when I missed a shrek reference, it started the discussion. I said 'd put them on my list of things to do before calling Dr. Kevorkian, and then thought "hey, wouldn't that be a topic." I expected a bunch of perpetual motion, condense bose einstein condensate stuff- from this eclectic crew, but instead came full circle to comedy movies. via a bunch of hey, lighten up dude psychological stuff.

Nice perception.

I read that the good doctor will be getting out of prison soon.
