Overnight Open Thread (8-16-2012)
— Maetenloch

Tonight's ONT is weak but this time I have a medical-type excuse - apparently I'm now joining the Kool Kids Kidney Stonerz Klub. Sad smile

Not to worry - I've been a member before and have lots of fluids and narcotics available. Although to be fair that's true of pretty much every other Thursday night too.

Democrats Re-Running the 1980 Playbook?

Perhaps not intentionally but the nearest comparison to Obama's campaign nastiness is Jimmy Carter around this time in 1980:

The liberal columnist Richard Reeves wrote: "The Carter campaign is as mean-spirited as any you'll see in American politics.  Where this meanness comes from is obvious to anyone who has watched Carter's rise to the Presidency and the attempts to keep him there-it comes from the top, from Jimmy Carter." . . .

Speaking at Martin Luther King's Ebenezer Baptist Church in Atlanta on September 15, Carter said: "You've seen in this campaign the stirrings of hate and the rebirth of code words like 'states' rights' in a speech in Mississippi, in a campaign  reference to the Ku Klux Klan relating to the south. . .
'Mr. Carter has abandoned all dignity in his round-the-clock attack on Mr. Reagan's character and standing, jumping (in a most sanctimonious tone of voice) for "offenses" similar to many Mr. Carter himself has committed, and, most recently, concluding from all this that Mr. Reagan is a "racist" and a purveyor of "hatred."  This description doesn't fit Mr. Reagan.  What it fits, or more precisely, fits into, is Jimmy Carter's miserable record of personally savaging political opponents (Hubert Humphrey, Edward Kennedy) whenever the going got rough. . . Jimmy Carter, as before, seems to have few limits beyond which he will not go in the abuse of opponents and reconstruction of history.'

Here hoping that Team Obama is so confident that they think they can finally run the playbook 'right'.

Has Brett Kimberlin Finally Gone Too Far?

Live by the courts, die by the courts. Now that his victims are being represented by the Blogger's Defense Team and suing him, he's open to discovery but is refusing to comply.

In my last post on this subject I said that discovery had been served.  What I didn't know is that it had been served much, much earlier than I realized, so that it was due...  on August 10.  That would be almost a week ago.  So yes, I was posting we had served him with discovery two days before it was due.  In fact he was already informing my attorneys by then he would not comply.

Glenn Reynolds once observed that in a promised lawsuit by Brandon Darby against Neal Rauhauser that "the discovery process should be productive."  Well, apparently that is precisely what Kimberlin doesn't want in this case: productive discovery.  The deadline has passed and Kimberlin has refused to comply, to any degree, with legally mandated discovery requests.  He hasn't produced one relevant document, answered a single interrogatory, and so on.

I'm guessing this won't end well for him or his associates.

Feds Have Yet to Talk With Jon Corzine?!?

Even as the MF Global investigation is nearing its end:

A criminal investigation into the collapse of the brokerage firm MF Global and the disappearance of about $1 billion in customer money is now heading into its final stage without charges expected against any top executives.

After 10 months of stitching together evidence on the firm's demise, criminal investigators are concluding that chaos and porous risk controls at the firm, rather than fraud, allowed the money to disappear, according to people involved in the case....

In the most telling indication yet that the MF Global investigation is winding down, federal authorities are seeking to interview the former chief of the firm, Jon S. Corzine, next month, according to the people involved in the case. Authorities hope that Mr. Corzine, who is expected to accept the invitation, will shed light on the actions of other employees at MF Global.

Oh well no big deal, sometimes a billion dollars just goes missing. These kind of things happen so just move along.

Liberal Professors Just As Biased, Intolerant As You Suspected

So much so they don't mind freely declaring that they'd discriminate against any conservatives they come across:

Psychologists Yoel Inbar and Joris Lammers, based at Tilburg University in the Netherlands, surveyed a roughly representative sample of academics and scholars in social psychology and found that "In decisions ranging from paper reviews to hiring, many social and personality psychologists admit that they would discriminate against openly conservative colleagues."

.More than a third of the respondents said they would discriminate against the conservative candidate. One respondent wrote in that if department members "could figure out who was a conservative, they would be sure not to hire them."

Time To Get Busy Folks

And by 'busy' I mean baby-making-oriented fucking or else we're gonna get out-reproduced by the French. The French!!

With an average pre-recession TFR of 2.1 (which is replacement level) growth in overall U.S. population was coming almost entirely from immigration-legal and illegal.  If immigration slows down, as much evidence suggests it has, and TFR continues at a France-like level, then we face the prospect of a shrinking U.S. population in the near future.  And if you think our social insurance programs (Social Security, Medicare, etc) are in bad shape now, just wait.

27 Maet:

Did you pass one or was it discovered?

I've passed them, had some excised and some lithotripped and one got stuck and went septicemia I am now awaiting the opportunity to do away with the last of them soon.

Make sure they assay the stones. (save them if you pass them) it helps the diagnosis.

Also check if you have high uric acid (causes gout and gout can hurt worse than a kidney stone).

Uric acid can also cause other systems to go out of kilter. I'm being treated for my long term gout and I will tell you it has been a drastic change from where I was a few months ago. For the better.

Good luck. Try not to pass one it supposedly is 8 on the pain scale. About even with child birth. (oh look. It's a baby stone. AWWWWW it's so cute)

yay......I'll skip the eugenics jokes.

Dhimmi was a dork.

My grade school class voted overwhelmingly for Carter in our "decision '80 students vote" poll the teachers had the notion we indicated our parents' choice....

reality was a little different....the teachers had hinted that "Carter was for education, and he is a smart man who ran nuclear subs"

"Reagan was a jelly bean eating movie actor"

Thing was I was one of 3 kids who had seen Dan Akroyd as Carter in a bit on SNL....

I had a bit over $100 in rewards points on my Cabela's card, so just for shits & giggles I picked up a Nagant revolver on sale for $119. What a piece of shit. The hammer blocks the rear sight unless you cock it, the DA trigger pull is about 20 pounds and cramped my arm in six pulls, and it loads and unloads like an 1873 Colt (which is fine in Tombstone but not so hot in Stalingrad).

Then I adjusted my thinking. Sure, it's a miserable excuse for a combat pistol, but it was more than servicablel for an NKVD officer to discourage desertion through a few back-of-the-neck shots pour encourager les autres.

Now I find it rather brutally charming.

52 This can be only good for Aaron. Not answering interrogatories is a big nono. Judges don't like people who don't respect the process and therefore are disrespecting the court. They frown on that sh!t.

One way that debt collecting attorneys make their money is when people don't comply with the interrogatories after a judgment is won.

They then can get a judge to ORDER the defendant to be deposed in person AND if they don't show for that, they can get a judge to fine them for the associated costs that they caused the plaintiff by not showing up.

DEEEEEELICIOUS.

Not yet but I've been having occasional dull pains in the side that would come and go and then I started getting rust-colored urine. I usually get a small stone about every 4-5 years so I recognize the signs. Usually they pass on their own and I only need drugs when it gets really painful.

74 There are four different main types of kidney stone, with many more variants. What this means is that the brotherly internet advice you get about what to avoid and what to drink a lot of is almost invariably wrong.

For a hundred years, it was always the cheese. Then, it wasn't.
Here's some brotherly advice from the internet: do not trust a nephrologist or urologist just on word-of-mouth. There are some criminally negligent lithotripsy practitioners out there, and they manage to get confidentiality riders attached to their malpractice payouts. Many of them are also very popular, because they're so bubbly-nice while they're killing you.

And yes, I speak from experience. I recommend the Cleveland Clinic.

81 I have a question for all military, ex-military and gun experts here. My oldest daughter (Major, USAF) graduates in September from DLI and then will be stationed in Germany. She has a private handgun (SigSauer) and was told she can not take it to Germany. She now wants to give it to me. She is in Monterey and I am at Travis AFB. I can't have a gun in Base housing anf would have to store it at the Base Armory. Can someone tell me why she can't take the damn thing, would I need to go through CA bullshit permitting boondoggle or what? I really don't need no fucking hassle over a gun

89 I had stones years ago. Thought they were back spasms, got through them with hot baths and BenGay. Eventually I went to the ER and got x-rayed. The stones had passed (mercifully they break up when they hit my bladder)...but my ureter was HUGE. One of my last ones got stuck. They went up the urethra and pulled it out. That was not a pleasant recovery.

97 Ma Bell:

Reasons: customs, laws of the host country, hassles and liabilities of privately owned weapons, transport and import/export.

I suggest that she get a safe deposit box. Pay in advance for 5 years. Disassemble the weapon so there is no way any bullet could be fired or present. Put weapon in the safe deposit box and give you a key.

Done and done.

Added protection: ask an attorney.

Transferring a handgun from your child in CA is easy. If you can meet, she can hand it to you and you have to send a form in within 30 days with a $19 check, then it's all legal. You can do the same thing in reverse when she gets back. http://oag.ca.gov/sites/all/files/pdfs/firearms/forms/oplaw.pdf Instructions are on the form, second page.

She turned it down then.
Her reasoning?

If he lost it would tarnish her for 2016.
If he won and continued his stupid socialist shit she would have to defend it in 2016.

166 140 I had kidney stones a few years ago, most physically painful day of my life. They said it was the closest, as a man, I would ever come to pregnancy.

I do not like this discussion. I do not like it at all. Never had a kidney stone, and I would like to believe I'm immune. If I'm wrong, don't tell me. But maybe I can imagine the pain. Picture it: waking up from major surgery, and there is this apparatus in my unit. Before I can escape the hospital, I must demonstrate many abilities, but after that, this thing in my unit must go. Finally the nice lady arrives, and she will extricate it. I ask her, naively, "will this hurt?" She says "no," and proceeds to inflict on me the most intense and fundamental pain of my life. I glare at the lying bitch until she exits from sheer shame. And yet, I imagine, that in those moments, I have glimpsed something of what it must be like to expel one of those stones.

Well, it's not like Romney is going to win in WA state anyway.  I read the comments on the link, some are hoping that it will decrease 'turnout' for the Republicans and help in close races like Gov.  With all mail in ballots, I don't think it would decrease the rate of returned ballots that much.  Some commentors also  preened about how teh Republicans keep trying to disenfranchise voters.  REally?  Do they not remember how many ballots had to be found and how many recounts did it take for Queen Christine to win?  Such myopia.

279 but I've heard it's not actually a load-bearing part, it just holds everything in place. True? Posted by: GGE of the Moron Horde at August 16, 2012 11:56 PM (yh0zB) Sort of. Technically it just holds the fire control parts together and against the bolt carrier, but it can;t flex much so the 3D printed one will fail, it's a flexible material (these days). It flexes more if it's piston-driven, it experiences internal pressure for DI setups. Plus it will suffer micro-impacts from hot brass over time. The carbon fiber ones seem to last, but I've never seen one with a ton of "miles" on it. Depending on your State laws you don't even have to serialize it if you don't transfer it. Within certain limits, it is perfectly legal to make your own firearms, even in The Dreaded California. They regularly have "build parties" here where people make guns from partially-completed receivers.

I've had trouble with Winchester brass cracking at the neck after about 3 reloads (all RCBS gear for those). Also Remington, though they take more cycles. Federal and military brass last forever, it seems. And I've found CCI primer radius tolerance to be pretty loose. CCI is particularly problematic, at least in my experience, with new brass. Primer tools in all types of equipment seem to have trouble centering CCI (rifle, shotshell, pistol) and new brass primer pockets seem unforgiving to CCI sometimes. Never have that trouble with Federal.

312 They said it was the closest, as a man, I would ever come to pregnancy. Bullshit. I was in a motorcycle accident about 15 years ago that shattered my hip and right tibia. Essentially, I was struck in the right leg by a car going in the opposite direction, and the bumper hit exactly in the center of the upper part of my leg, powdering it. The car knocked me 20 feet through the air, and I landed on my back in the road. Fearing that I might have broken my back, despite the fact that I never lost consciousness and never even went into shock, the bastards strapped me to a backboard. They also refused to give me any anesthetics for fear it would mask the effects of the completely illusory broken vertebrae they were expecting. Then, due to the fact that I had weird insurance, I played musical hospitals for the next eight hours, until they finally got me somewhere that would accept what I could pay with. Pregnancy? Bring it on, bitches. I spent eight hours in agony with five major pain centers (hip, knee, bone ends grating together, neck because of the awkward angle I was strapped at, and my back because of the unnatural angle the backboard enforces on you). I spent most of the next eight hours cheerfully cussing out the EMTs, keeping them in stitches with ever more inventive profanity and curses on them, their families, friends and acquaintances. I couldn't stop talking, because if I did, I would have been screaming at the top of my lungs and trying to get out of the torture device.

316 I've birthed five children in 7 years, and I wish I could have more, but it's my husband that can't handle it. Not saying he doesn't love them, but he came from a spoiled family with only 2 children spaced equally out over 4 years (whatever that recommendation was from some crazy "psychologist"), and he's not used to the chaos like I am since I came from a family with 6 kids because my parents also both came from large families. Not all women don't want to have babies. You guys interested in having a ton of kids might consider finding you one of those conservative Christian type ladies who REALLY want to be homemakers and mothers. . . Some people get the wrong idea about these women, but a lot of them make pretty fierce American mothers. . . and they aren't all unattractive and out of shape either. They cook, clean, birth babies, try to coupon like crazy to save you money and believe in giving their husbands sex and keeping themselves up. But I think they are about as good as the husband they marry. . . I'm sure all of this would backfire if you are lazy, look at other women (in media or in real-life) and have some bad habits (like watching too much ESPN or getting drunk nightly). Anyway, this is long but let me add. . . I always thought that having so many kids would give me the added benefit of having my own children to help care for my husband and myself when we got old (if we needed assistance, but I'm trying to be self-sufficient). But the way things are going, it makes me wanna puke that I am raising these kids so they can take care of other people who had absolutely nothing to do with their upbringing and the people they turned out to be.

318 Little Hobbit was breech, and wasn't going to turn. Ended up she had the cord around her neck three times. It took great effort on the nurse's part to get her to breathe, and the upright position caused her feet to fold up under her. She had surgery for severe club feet when she was 6 months old. She's just fine now, but I thank God I had good doctors and nurses. Posted by: Hobbitopoly at August 17, 2012 12:10 AM (d6TfZ) --Wow, glad she made it! Our son was just showing increasing stress from the labor and we figured it was just not worth the warm fuzzies of a natural birth to risk his health. It also meant that I heard him for the first time before seeing him.

320 While natural childbirth hurts, it's momentary. It goes away and heals pretty quickly. . . it's like an all-night project. Literally, you give birth (hopefully with no major injuries or surgeries), and you pretty much feel relief right away. Pain from accidents and surgeries can be a long torment. I'd choose the childbirth instead of an injury.

Out of shape and ugly is fine with me if she cooks well, is loyal, loving, and a Christian conservative. Pretty goes away over time. The rest of that stuff is forever.

327 The talk of milled lowers reminded me. I have a complete M1A National Match, but I want to put together a combat rifle to go with it. I am looking at the SAGE stocks which are milled aluminum, so have very high rigidity and good accuracy. What is a good place to get a lower receiver in 7.62 mm that will take M14 magazines (I have about 30 of them lying around)? And if I can get one sans serial number and without the use of FFL, even better (although I have a friend who has an FFL who will cover for me if needed). Any thoughts? David

336 Christopher Taylor, Yeah, I'd say the hardest thing about having a baby is the sleep deprivation. Not the birth (if if all goes at least 90% well) or births if you have multiples. I will say that labor is difficult, and it takes courage just to push them out or face getting one's gut cut open. I'm not trying to make it sound like it's easy. I still think many men would ask for something to knock them out completely if they had to give birth.

345 "What about transferring her gun to me?"

I don't know if anyone answered your question there, Ma Bell.
But, here goes.
In CA. in order to legally transfer a pistol or handgun, you, the expected recipient, must pass all Federal background checks and have the 10 day waiting period required by California.

In addition, the pistol or handgun must first be delivered to a licensed transferring agent, such as an FFL dealer, sheriff, etc., before it can be transferred to you.

Different issues.  The advanced degree issue is that a) they're more likely to pick up stupid ideas the longer they are in college, especially since they get told how super smart they are for being in grad school and b) like it or not a lot of women will view a man who has less education than themselves with disdain.

The Docter/Lawyer Rule is because physicians tend to have God complexes and lawyers are often looking for someone to complete the "power couple" that they've always dreamed of being.

Posted by: Merovign, Dark Lord of the Sith at August 17, 2012 12:46 AM (bxiXv)



No, the first round of M16s actually were jamtastic pieces of crap. It took a Marine lieutenant falling on a (figurative) grenade to get one of the Colt imagineers out there in the dirt to witness the fucking thing jamming up under battlefield conditions to get it fixed. The subsequent models of the M16 were just fine and have proven themselves on battlefields around the world since then.



Of course I have a Saiga, which is basically a semiauto AK-101 (.223)...

Posted by: GGE of the Moron Horde, NC Chapter at August 16, 2012 08:50 PM (yh0zB)

420 Ugh. I just got through a holy war on another site about the AR15. People tell me that the AR15 platform is amazingly versatile, and that new weapons are the cat's meow. I dunno. All I can say is that when I had to use the M16 in combat in a jungle environment, even keeping the goddam thing floating in break-free, it would still jam every 50 or 60 rounds. Of course, given the single minded training of our excellent range folks, cycling the action and slamming in a new round took not much more time than firing a round would have, but I will never, ever, ever voluntarily use anything but a piston operated system ever again. As one person said, Stoner DID design the AR10/AR15 during the 60s. We don't know for sure he was high when he did it, but given its provenance and the problems plaguing it, not to mention his own curiously apt name, it would explain a lot...

The .223 round was new to the US military, but the rifles were a real problem. They would work fine in the lab, not so much in the field, Colt refused to acknowledge there was a problem and said the soldiers weren't keeping them clean enough, the soldiers were hanging on to their M14s for dear life and using captured AKs when they could until a Marine called Colt out on it once. They sent an engineer, went Oh, yeah, that's a problem, loosened the tolerances up just a smidge and it was all good after that. The Marine got a letter in his record that effectively ended his career because he went outside the chain of command...the same chain that wasn't being responsive to the problems BTW. Lots of politics involved, but as usual a Marine cut through the bullshit and made it right. F'n jarheads, gotta love em.

Relax, man.

I ditched my M-16A2 in a New York minute when I was in, in favor of an even nastier Stoner weapon: M-60. .223 Rem (or 5.56 mm NATO, for sticklers) is a lousy cartridge for anything but killing groundhogs, in my opinion.

Secondly, cleaning an AR is an exercise in self-abuse. Admit it. And the looks of the thing? Seriously? Come on, man! It's an industrial, stamped-out tool. There's zero aesthetics there. None. Maybe that doesn't mean much to some, but it means something to me.

I've put thousands of rounds through the damned things, but I never developed a liking for them. And I never understood why anyone else would.

The M-14 isn't a piece of ancient history, either. Neither is the M2, or the 1911. Haven't you heard? The USMC just bought a shit-ton of new Colts. Old isn't obsolete when it's better than new plastic shit (and always has been). Sorry. My opinion. Please don't lump my opinion (and experience) in with some bullshit trend you've noticed.

Grimmys pretty happy right now. we are both in love with our new kittens Jellybean and Mo. I think Jellybean, who he initially fought bringing back home after i farmed her out to get bottlefed, has completely seduced him with her kitten-cute charms. Hes started talking to her with a "Special voice."


first time i have EVER seen him do that with any animal, even dogs! but shes pretty damn awesome. Bottle fed kittens often are.


I sold a horse (my bay colt) to some nice folks who promptly broke his hip. So that pissed me off. Then i got the worlds best clients with a fabulous mare. They pay up front in cash and the horse is so wonderful i call her  Princess. So its a wash. like most of life, good and bad with some super cool mixed in. Wish it wasnt so damned hot.

The AK is an industrial stamped out tool, my Saiga (made by the same people that make the AK47 and using the same tooling) has a bent and welded sheet metal receiver. The AR is machined.



The .223 has done enough damage over the years that it needs to prove itself to no one. Kinda funny though that the US pushed the 7.62 NATO round and then abandoned it in favor of the 5.56 once it had been adopted NATO-wide.

472 Great news gush! Minus the broken horsey hip, of course. I use Beagles voice all the time, but especially handy when I want to say something mean to Cougar. "What, Beagle said it, not me. Yell at him." hehe. I think I'm much funnier than Cougar does.

482 I read that the 5.56 was about carrying more rounds (lighter) and the round tumbled making nastier wounds, but mostly because a wounded enemy takes at least one other combatant out of the fight (to get them to safety and a medic) while a dead target is just one guy down.
I don't know if any of that is true, but I've read they're moving away from the tumbling small round philosophy these days.

Yep! They are getting away from them in the desert because they find they are needing a heavier round for long-range work, not that the 5.56 can't get out there it just doesn't have as much energy as the 7.62 when it gets there. Still easier to carry many rounds in 5.56 as compared to the 7.62, and ammo is life.

Posted by: Prothonotary Warbler at August 17, 2012 01:34 AM (3yCFy)



it seems the way this is working is that Mo is teaching the Bean how to fetch. they are different styles of cat. He is long and white and sleek and graceful, she is stubby, tigerlike and pounces like a turbo dumptruck. its amusing. Shes faster and gets it done, but hes got style by the boatload.

The funny thing was that all the Sand Hill guys in their air conditioned barracks got colds because of the abrupt changes in temperature from when they went from 100 degree 90% humidity outside to 72 degree 15% humidity inside.

Of course they'd care. There wasn't an infinite supply. The most exotic delicacy isn't worth becoming a ruler with no subjects. At the base, expending too many lives leads to supply chain issues. China has always understood that, as can be seen in any Foxconn facility.

707 Let me pass on empathy as well as sympathy for Maetenloch and his kidney stones. I won my battle this week and im sure he will win his. On the topic of declining birth rates, my qualitative study of the phenomenon informs me that the more socialist a country becomes, the lower it's birth rate. The most productive people simply dont have the resources available to give lots of children the lifestyle they themselves have earned. Furthermore;, the cost of marriage and it's attendant knock-on life choices (larger home, children, etc) means that people start their families later and have a shorter window to raise kids. Finally, if the government provides for more in our old age, it becomes less financially necessary to produce children who will care for their elders, and this additional economic reality results in a lower quantity of offspring demanded by any given person or couple. Birth rate, and it's trajectory, is a powerful trailing indicator of the level of economic freedom versus economic safety of a state. As the safety net becomes a hammock, people tend to spend more time napping in it and less time getting jiggy. That's all I got for tonight, friends.

713 They call economics the dismal science. It's more math than science, but this is an example of how economic is a social science in the most fundamental way. You can't beat economics. You can only postpone its inevitable results. Which the stupid and the ignorant are learning again under the economic policies of the JEF. Okay, I do have one other thing for tonight. That which we commonly call RPGs on the computer are indeed RPGs; they're just not particularly deep because of the linear nature of computer programs, versus the wide-open ingenuity of a live GM with a live human brain. MMO RPGs can certainly be more RPG-like, sine activities outside of the core "get the quest, kill the monster, gain XP, repeat" grind are generally performed with other human beings within the structure is the simulated world. We've yet to see a totally-open-world game where you can literally do anything and face the kind of granular complexity you can get on a tabletop. But the game which comes closest is Second Life. And you know who is the most financially successful in Second Life? The people who design avatars-- looks, clothing, accessories, and so forth-- for other players to buy and inhabit directly. And the most lucrative specific avatar modifications in that game are big, functional penises. Shit you not. So if Second Life is viewed through the lens of a social science experiment, the most valuable single possession our culture values above others is a big wang. Which I sort of already knew, and I suspect you did too, but it's gratifying that when the experiment is actually done, we all turned out to be correct.

I am looking forward to that moment when a whole bunch of sen's and congresstwerps realize they have to run against Obutthead to have a chance in their own races.  then it will turn into the world's biggest circular firing squad inside a clown car. I expect to hear morons yelling: "popcorn, stat!!"

737 as much as I'm not digging that The Bamboos changed their sound since signing to Tru Thoughts, I really dig this song which is a song that is a definite in the Tru catalog rather than the Bamboos sound

what is that like?  I have never had one.

I have read that the red bull masks the drunkenness so it lets you keep drinking more and more.

773 Interesting article on DWS, the babbling head of the DNC.  She got a BA and a MA in politics.  Her entire life has been in the government, first Florida and then DC.  Makes a good case that when DWS says the Pledge of Allegiance, she swears fealty to the Party and not the country.

793 Oh, boy. Kidney stones. Enough pain makes you stupid. When I was in grad school, I had a kidney stone and it made me forget the number to 911. (No shit. I couldn't remember whether it was 911 or 411, and when I tried 411, it gave me the "you must first dial a 1" which caused me to just sort of gave up on both of them.) When I finally got in to the emergency room, the stone had moved out of the kidney down toward my bladder and I felt fine. So, the doctor sent me home. Three days later, the doctor at the student clinic sent me to see a urologist. He ran some tests (radioopaque dye and such) and determined to put me in the hospital on Monday to have it removed the following week. He told me that if it hurt too bad, I should go to the e-room and get admitted. Well, Sunday night I couldn't take it any more and I went to the hospital, but I couldn't remember what I was supposed to do there. I wound up repeating the doctor's name over and over. When he showed up, he looked at me, said "admit him," and left. They got me up to the room, shot me full of Demerol and fluids (by this time, I was sufficiently dehydrated that they had trouble starting an IV, what with my shy veins and all) and I felt okay. Then, Tuesday, they went in with the roto-rooter thing and got it. The nice thing about being that uncomfortable is that once it's gone, you feel fantastic. It's just normal, but normal in comparison to that is fantastic.
