I think "disease engineering" falls under the conspiracy theory umbrella. But listen....I don't want to fight about it.

I am constantly worried about my wife, as she is a nurse. Obviously, the patients are more susceptible because they are there around the clock. But everyone is at risk in the hospital.

Why? 'Cause its "Stop your Whining" Friday?

Uh, no. I could give two fucks about that. It's cause I'm trying to be a gentler man.

I hate hospitals...

I hate the fact that all hospital staff is over worked and all hospitals are understaffed.

I was hospitalized a couple of years ago (I mentioned it on CJ back then) and I had a horrid experience at Aventura Hospital.

I left that hospital feeling worse than I did when I went in there....

The good thing is I got a hospital bill for $4000 and I bitched and bitched about my experience there for about a year and they finally got sick of me calling so they got rid of my bill. My insurance ended up paying the other $11000 for 1 night in an ER...

Well I hope the Usual Suspects made your stay a little better.
