c) none of the above

don't you sit around in the waiting room and fart uncontrollably for 20 minutes afterwards?

I dont remember doing that but I probably did while I was asleep. I woke up and 10 minutes later was out the door on my way to the burger place across the street. No aftereffects.

I do that during most visits. That gets you the best 3 year old magazines

its the night before that sucks

They put you under? awesome

Make sure you get the Michael Jackson sleeping drug. That's what makes it the best nap of your life.

Good god, is that what it takes to draw Snood out??

Snood = The Batman of anesthesia

This is actually a good song...

scratch Gabby Gifford off the anti-gun speaking list

When was the pic taken? Also, I don't think she nor Mark Kelly were "anti-gun" at any point. They said they owned guns. It was about certain types of guns and the legislation needed to regulate them.

clearly it was taken before she was shot, she was actually a guest speaker at a gun club a few years ago

but there is no grey area - if you stand up in front of congress and speak to them about limiting access to guns for law abiding citizens - you are not pro-gun in any sense of the word. Understandable given her situation but hypocritical to say the least.

I don't get it. It seems you are going a bit into the "semantics" realm. My definition of "not anti-gun" allows for someone to own guns and still feel that there should be laws regulating and sometimes forbidding some guns from being in the hands of law abiding citizens. I actually think the list of people who feel that way generally is pretty long...and they are not hypocrites.

Also, changing your position as a culminating effect of genuine experiences and additional knowledge is not hypocritical in my book. I don't see Rob Portman as hypocritical. That's a hard line to take...and also why some politicians are afraid to change their position for fear of being labeled deficient in some manner, even when they truly and legitimately reach a different conclusion than they originally held.

Gotta agree with Brook here, I don't see how being open to some kind of limitations on gun ownership automatically completely disqualifies you as pro-gun...

Agree with Brook. Not anti gun ownership, just anti crazy ass machine gun ownership.

I'm sure having me and Rat jump in like that must make eCat feel vindicated in his views...

At least in my eyes it does.

what makes her hypocritical is saying she isn't anti-gun.

but the gun that shot her was a glock 9mm - a gun that she owns btw.

Her views just aren't consistent , and I understand that getting shot in the head would motivate someone to act, even irrationally, but couple that with her asshat husband going out and buying an assault weapon before they are banned and I don't see how you can respect either one of them, nor can you trust what they say.

the gun she's holding looks like it could be described as an assualt weapon with a high capacity magazine

It probably was.

I'm moving on, though. She's not THE poster child for reform nor is she able to exert any real political pressure. Tear her poster up or not, no matter to where the debate is headed.

Anyway...

HOLY SHIT, the SEC just hit SAC Capital with a $600M fine. The guy who runs the firm (Stevie Cohen) will just cut the check and move on. Baller.

Funny that this sorta all started with an extortionist rabbi in Brooklyn...
