Staring Down the Barrel of a (Hot Glue) Gun

Sometimes your mind can be so open that your brain falls out.

Yeah, Right.

RALEIGH, North Carolina (AP) -- Sen. Edward M. Kennedy enjoyed "a restful night's sleep" and was walking hospital hallways on Tuesday, one day after undergoing an aggressive brain surgery aimed at slicing away at a cancerous tumor to give chemotherapy and radiation treatments a chance to work.
For the record, if you have brain surgery of any sort, you will not - I repeat - you will not have "a restful night's sleep" whilst in the hospital, especially immediately following the surgery. You will be in some form of ICU, where someone will monitor every vital sign you have hourly, jab you with needles, machines are beeping and wheezing all around you, and you will be in a room full of moaning-in-agony, possibly-retching-loudly patients, who's least concern is whether or not they're keeping you up. Sleeping is the last thing you do in a hospital.

I'm so disappointed. I feel like I can't believe what the news reports anymore...
