    Slightly more credible internet bullshit:

    Some examples:

    Riding or sitting on sea turtle in the United States in a 3rd degree felony.

    In 1806, Mary Bateman wrote "Christ is coming" on chicken eggs before putting them back into the chickens. She charged people a penny to watch the chicken "lay" the egg. She was later executed for murder, and strips of her skin were sold as charms to ward off evil spirits.

    Roald Dahl, the author of "Charlie and Chocolate Factory," had all of his teeth pulled out when he was 21 years old. He thought teeth were more trouble than they were worth, and he tried to talk everyone he knew into pulling out their own teeth, too.

    Americans spend more time watching other people on television cook than they do cooking themselves.

    The original creator of Milk Duds wanted to make the candies into perfect circles. When that proved impossible, he called them "duds." He added the word "milk" to refer to the large amount of milk used to make the candy.

    Inquiring minds want to know: How do you put an egg back into a chicken???

    Note to self: Future project, to learn more about the Mary Bateman murder story.

    Why am I reminded of Marjorie Taylor "Crazyhead" Greene?

      Hey, Jon. You awake?

      How are you this morning? How do you feel?

      If it isn't too intrusive, what are the medicos saying?

      Hope you're feeling better!

                Fever gone. BP normal. I’d be home but for the fact that I need to finish a course of IV antibiotics.

                    One thing I learned from a nearly two-week course of IV antibiotics is they are pumping you full of fluids too. It brought my SpO2 down. You might watch for that if SpO2 drops. With pneumonia they might be giving you a diuretic as well to prevent fluid building up in the lungs.

                                  No I'm here still and will remain so until tomorrow morning.

                                  Had a CT yesterday which showed lower left lobe pneumonia, which just confirmed what they got from the X-ray Monday.

                                  Vitals are all normal.

                                  I feel fine but they want to do a broncoscopy and see what they can grow. But barring some unforeseen event I'll leave in the morning.
