This is exactly why I need a tablet. >:-(
I drew that today. It was supposed to be me, but I changed my mind once I started coloring it. I did the opposite of my own colors; I have brown hair and pale skin, and this stranger has nearly white hair and a healthy tan. It's cute, though. I wish I had that color hair.
But I'm not happy with it. I'm never happy with what I draw on the computer. I'm capable of so much better than this, not to toot my own horn or anything, but it's just so frustrating. Which is why I've decided to get a tablet. Of course, I'm saving up for a few things that have to come before it, but it's up there on my wishlist, just behind a car and a laptop. Or is it tied with a laptop? Doesn't matter; I need a car first. A nice, big wacom tablet can fetch up to $800, although realistically I'd probably be looking at something between 100 and 200.
I've already asked Travis for money for Christmas, although I think he mentioned something about getting me that alarm clock that jumps off your nightstand and rolls around on the floor beeping until you get up to catch it. That would be a very nice gift, I suppose, but I'd rather have the money to put towards a car...
But enough about that.
I have a question for you all! It's a moral dilemma I read about earlier, and I want your opinion.
You are an emergency worker that has just been called to the scene of an accident. When you arrive you see that the car belongs to your wife. Fearing the worst you rush over to see she is trapped in her car with another man.
She sees you and although barely concious, she manages to mouth the words "I'm sorry"...
You don't understand, but her look answers you question. The man next to her is her lover with whom she's been having an affair.
You reel back in shock, devastated by what her eyes have just told you. As you step back, the wreck in front of you comes into focus. You see your wife is seriously hurt and she needs attention straight away. Even if she gets attention there's a very high chance she'll die.
You look at the seat next to her and see her lover. He's bleeding heavily from a wound to the neck and you need to stem the flow of blood immediately. It will only take about 5 minutes to stop, but it will mean your wife will definately die.
If you tend to your wife however, the man will bleed to death despite the fact it could have been avoided.
Who would you choose to work on?
I want to say I'd choose the wife, but her prognosis isn't that great so she'd probably die anyway. That man doesn't deserve to die, especially since you don't even know for sure he's your wife's lover. I guess I'd choose the man.
