203. used up my christmas gift card in one fell swoop(but finished shopping for most for family)

204. Someone at my work (who I don't know) died after fighting a mystery infection for two weeks in hospital. The informal word is that she got sick after getting a flu shot, and docs couldn't figure it out/fight it. Only 27 yrs old.

oh serious bummer :(

― grbchv! (gbx), Tuesday, 12 December 2006 01:37 (seventeen years ago) link

And scary. Presumably she was healthy before-hand.

AFFCAP (as far from civilization as possible)

― friday on the porch (lfam), Tuesday, 12 December 2006 01:43 (seventeen years ago) link

It might have been Guillain-Barre Syndrome. My dad got that after a flu shot. Got a little sick a few days later, and within half a week, he could hardly walk or lift a fork. Perfectly healthy at the time.

Which is why being AFFCAP and avoiding flu shots is really the only option.

that seems pretty treatable, though

first-world hospitals play host to lots of new pathogens, kind of scary

― mark coleman (lovebug ), Wednesday, 13 December 2006 11:26 (seventeen years ago) link

i remember how floored i was the first time i saw the vw "pink moon" commercial. i had been playing the pink moon lp earlier that day or the day before and when the commercial came on i got very confused, like "wait, is that coming from the tv?? i don't understand!"

medical care isn't cheap so whatever roky's gotta do he's gotta do and i'm not going to begrudge him any for it.

Tho it would've been cooler if the Dell PCs were red; they could've used "Fire Engine" instead.

that's fair.

Oh totally, I never feel like it's about the artists -- of COURSE they deserve to make money from their projects, and need money to live on in this crazy system that we use. It's more the marketing exec who comes up with the tunes that I feel ire toward...or his hipster underling? Whatever, it's all about the "cool" person working there whose job it is to spot happening things and co-opt them.

― Laurel (Laurel), Wednesday, 13 December 2006 16:20 (seventeen years ago) link

i know a dude out in portland who licenses music for commercials and he always tries to help out bands he likes first. that's how the ponys wound up in a fucking all-state commercial last spring or how the tyrades wound up being broadcast coast to coast despite only having two 7"s released. not so much co-option as friends helping friends.

The back of an earing can work, but not for those truly annoying bits that get between teeth -- for those, you need to rip a bit of poly thread out of the cuff of yr shirt (cotton usually isn't strong enough).

― Laurel (Laurel), Wednesday, 13 December 2006 19:20 (seventeen years ago) link
