It's because he's used to scoring after the game. *nudge nudge*

The greatest shootout goal you've seen all year. From a guy who hasn't scored in 20 games.

I love how he looks like he does that all the time.

They froze his warts off with like fuckin liquid nitrogen on a giant-ass Q-tip or some shit right? I had a wart on my foot when I was like fuckin 7 years old and they did the same thing back then. There's been no change in wart treatment.

Cutting them the fuck off? Are you kidding me? With like a fucking sword or something? That shit's arcane.

Lazers? Fuck you. That's like some futurama shit there. If that was true would we really be wasting all of our fuckin precious lazer technology on DVD-players and lightsabers and bullshit...? Fuck no!


The year is 2005. Get with the program; that fucker gets ICED.

What the fuck are all you idiots talking about?

THERE IS NO SNOW ON THE GROUND. HELLOOOOO? LOOK THE FUCK OUTSIDE.

Everybody shut the fuck up about snow. This is the second time I've read a post saying there's snow on the ground. And then you assholes make me get off my lazy asshole and look out the window hoping to see a cocaine dumped wonderland. But nooooo. It's just fuckin dry-ass, cracked-ass, cement.

STFU!!!

The election is another matter. I mean, I think it's pretty poor that we only get 60-some percent turnout, but I'm not sure, at this point, that I can blame people. It's the same election we had in June 2004, with the same leaders, same issues, same ugly campaign, and same Klein outbursts as before, except this time there's snow on the ground, and a two week break:

Martin is expected to call for a slightly longer campaign, setting the vote for mid-January, either the 16th or the 23rd, with an agreement among the parties to take a holiday break and stop campaigning between Dec. 23 and Jan. 3.

That thing about warts is a bit of a coincidence, actually. I was shadowing a family doc a couple of weeks ago and a woman came in with plantar warts (that'd be the ones on the soles of your feet.) Basically, to treat it, the doctor had a kit that involved freezing the wart and scraping it off (of course, it would require subsequent treatment; these things aren't easy.) But the treatment was done right there, that day in his office.

As for keeping good records, not getting sued, etcetera, it's really not that complex. Doctors should be keeping good records regardless; there's a lot of useful information that you should be keeping track of. As for keeping complaints to a minimum, all it takes is a little listening. There has been a lot of study into this and if patients feel that the doctor listened to them, considered their concerns, gave honest advice, and tried his best, they're far less likely to sue/complain, even when there's an undesired outcome. (Of course, when you feel as Alison described, you're more likely to complain.)

well Alison, my take on that situation is not very favorable for the proffesionals involved. The good news is they're not lying to you. They don't cut warts anymore. The bad news is they didn't tell the whole truth. They zap them with la[z]ers now. Less invasive, less pain, smaller scar, no wart. You really want to piss them off, write a letter to the Alberta Medical Association. Essentially, for every letter of complaint received against the doctor, the doctor is required to respond with a letter of their own explaining everything that they did and why they did what they did. If you think they've been negligent or useless, say that. Tell them that resources were wasted and you still have the damn things on your feet. Tell them how disinterested they were in you and how that made you feel. They always side with the doctors, but it's a pain in the ass responding to them.

Paras, keep good records so you can defend yourself appropriately.
