If you’re trotting down Nicollet Mall this morning near the Hyatt you’ll encounter a group of protesters, most of them monks (or men dressed up like monks) carrying signs in remembrance of Terri Schindler-Schiavo and telling us not to murder our loved ones. Not sure when Terri started hyphenating her name, but perhaps they should be using this energy to help the folks in the Gulf who still have their wits about them and are trying desperately to live.

Protesting anything while dressed in monk garb sounds a little wacked to me too, but isn’t, “they should be using this energy to help the folks in the Gulf” about the ultimate in opportunistic, generic cheap shots?

Ever think about how Terry Shaivo’s feed tube must have felt? Here’s a look at things from the tube’s perspective.

i don’t do too much tv, but that whole story sucked me in. i had forgotten how confused i was about it. remember how at the time the pope was dying and they were trying to keep him alive, and terry was dying and they were trying to let her go, and no one could really articulate what a persistent vegetative state is, and the husband was this sort of questionable bloke that you wanted to doubt. oh god, i’m all mixed again. is he gettin PAID for speaking???? fucker~
