Not sure what I am going to do tonight. Supposed to go to a Mardi Gras party, but the thought of being hungover tomorrow sounds like no fun, and the thought of going to a Mardi Gras party and being surrounded by drunks while I am sober sounds worse, so I think I will simply play some Warcrack. Not in the mood to read or watch tv.

I just watched Client 9 on netflix instant. Although the story is known, it does raise an interesting point in my mind. Why did Murdoch hire the prostitute to write an advice column and why does she appear on Fox News so often? IMO, Spitzer has a lot of enemies and they still seem to fear him.

I’m starting to write my mom’s eulogy.
She died Wednesday, we’re having the service two weeks from Monday.
Thanking you in advance for your kind wishes.
She would have been 94 on her next birthday, in July. The machine just plain wore out. She was lucid, aware and communicative to within a week of the end. It was a mixed blessing, because she knew exactly what was happening to her.
I wrote, when she first went into nursing care, last summer, about how awfully infantilizing end-of-life care can be for the extreme elderly. Having ranted then, I must now honor her nurses and other caregivers, who were loving and caring and attentive to the end, and who made sure she wasn’t alone at the time.
I will be back to my snarkastic self next time.

John mentioned the lack of regulation for drilling for gas in PA a few days ago. It appears that is happening all over and the NYTIMES has a lengthy article about the dangers involved.

@efgoldman:
This is exactly what I went through with my 92 year old father 4 years ago at Beth Israel in Boston. When the time came to stop intervening and to move him to a private room for the end, an angel appeared in the guise of a nurse named George who kept him comfortable and clean, tended to us as we kept vigil through the night, and let us know at every stage of the process what he was doing and what to expect. It was strange but peaceful, dignified and profound after the three weeks of constant medical procedures and indignities that my father endured but never would have chosen.
I sent a thank you card to George at the hospital and it was returned to me as addressee unknown. I called the ward where we were, and no one had heard of a nurse there named George. So, the FSM moves in mysterious ways.

My mom chose the hospice option in her nursing home. No tubes except oxygen, no hospital care, unless she had fallen and needed a bone set, or something, which didn’t happen.

Warren Terra - February 26, 2011 | 9:31 pm · Link
Spent a couple hours at the Wisconsin Solidarity rally at LA city hall. My guess – very rough, and with no experience making such a guess and idea how accurate it is – would be that there were several hundred people there. After about an hour, maybe an hour-and-a-half, a group that had been doing a march for abortion rights joined the rally, four hundred strong according to the speaker with the microphone (seemed like less). People were fired up and enthusiastic.
Sadly, there really didn’t seem to be any mainstream organizing – I walked all the way around the rally twice, and stayed for two hours, and while the speakers were great (and included the Secretary Of State, the local Congresswoman, and two or so City Councillors, as well as a MoveOn Rep, countless union workers and officials, and a couple of other activists and vocal artists) the only organizing being done was by nutters (Maoists, Marxists, and especially Larouchies) except for a table set up by AFSCME. A lot of the turnout was Union folks, and they’re already organized. There were allegedly MoveOn people with clipboards, according to the speakers, but I never saw one.
I kept an eye open for ABL, having seen her picture with Mandvi, but if she was there I didn’t spot her. Maybe I just didn’t recognize her because the wasn’t grinning as exuberantly without Mandvi, or I didn’t recognize her without Aasif Mandvi.
