Most definitely. Didn’t he say, during his retirement speech, “I’ll come back if David [Stern] lets me”? Can’t remember the exact transcript.

The Iranian Government had Michael Jackson killed.

Remember that summer? The Iranian election scandals? The “Green Revolution”? All you could hear about in the news, on Facebook and Twitter was about the millions of Iranian students protesting the obviously fraudulent results (especially on Twitter; this was really

I’ll admit, as an ER doctor, many elements of this story seem suspect. Morphine wouldn’t generally ‘incapacitate you’ to the point you can’t move/react without severely impairing your level of consciousness/ability to breathe. Moreover, it would be very unusual for a doc to actually have access to syringes of morphine

What movie is that from? As far as I remember, Michael C Hall has done like four movies in his entire career, and I thought I’d seem them all.

WE ARE SLAAAAAAVES

We find in favour of.....AMERICAN DISCO DANCING!!!!!

I think I just burned myself on your take.

What cocktails aside from a Manhattan? I'd say at the minimum Old Fashioned and Martini. Aside from that, you should be able to get away with the standard "two things mixed together" drinks (scotch and soda, G and T, Jack and Coke, etc).

Darius Kasparitis..... now that's a name I've not heard in a long time.

Takes me back to my days as a young leafs fan when I was so convinced signing him would be the answer to our defensive woes (hence my username)

To be honest, it's not so much the blood clots that would sideline you per se, but the fact that you're on oral anticoagulants for at least 3-6 months. Generally, being on blood thinners wouldn't be a huge deal, unless you're in a field where you, say, get routinely pummelled and struck repeatedly, and are at high

Doctor here. The answer is three. Three times.

Hand to FSM this happened. I couldn't have planned it better if I was a scriptwriter.

Yep. Had a great time explaining that to her when I got back in town. I subsequently spent a Christmas at her parent's farm where I proceeded to get shitfaced, lost to her father in an arm wrestling match, and nearly puked on the Christmas tree the next morning. Made a great impression as the Jew visiting for

True story - I had been dating a now ex-girlfriend (lets call her Susan) for about three months in undergrad. My school was out of province for both of us, but one weekend, I wound up visiting a friend in her home city. To make a long story short, my friend would up getting hospitalized and I was left without a place

I cannot recommend this enough. Pretty much anything Unibroue pumps out is amazing. Their Blanche de Chambly is outstanding too.

Clostridium Tetani, the bacteria we immunize against with the tetanus shot, releases a toxin which causes lockjaw. I have, for the first time in my medical career, actually met someone who suffered from tetanus after stepping on a rusty nail, and in fact, needed to be on a ventilator for a few months because of this.

I happened to work at the Air Canada Centre in the Leafs/Raptors playoff heyday (that being them making the playoffs; remember, this is Toronto sports we're talking about, you've got to set the bar low) as a bag vendor. I'd sell pizza, popcorn, ice cream and the like in the stands. For a high school kid, it was a
