Stupid Hippos
Hello again listeners,
hope you're having a good night out there in radio land, enjoying the rain and the fog as it descends on the city... Sure am glad I've got tomorrow off...
Little bit of good news, little bit of bad news, but first a revelation. I hate the waiting game, and I'm pissed off because I don't have Hungry Hungry Hippos... The bad news. My dad needs a new liver and a set of kidneys... anyone got a set lying around I could borrow for 10-15 years? Not to say my expectations are low.. but he's gotten 12-13 years off of this last one, which is more then anyone of us could have hoped for...
The good news? Well.. he's on the list. -pause- . This means, essentially, when a body comes in, freshly brain-dead, and still has viable organs that match my dad's.. whatever.. they'll hopefully go to him.
How close to the top or bottom, I don't know, I'm not sure if that's a factor, mostly because of how close the doner has to be matched to him.. and there can't be that many other people in the transplant wing there, waiting for the exact same set... well.. one always needs hope...
Oh.. and yeah, a sort of side note from my friend Jon... SUV's.. easy to take them out.. they just gotta flip, have the roof give the passengers a good smack on the head... they have to be brain dead, but mostly inact otherwise... and there's a whole selection of idiots out there.. s'like the lottery... but this has got to have better odds...
Lord help me if people take that seriously..
-Tom
