The first thing I did when I saw this DUmmie THREAD titled, How is Andy doing? at 6:50 AM this morning was enter cancer into the FIND function and guess what? NO mention of cancer at all on the entire page. You know if Scamdy had pancreatic CANCER it would have been mentioned at least ONCE (although they might toss that word in the thread AFTER reading this edition of the DUFUs). Therefore, if Scamdy did NOT have cancer what was the reason he went to Johns Hopkins in the first place? He could have had regular pancreatic surgery done in his home state of Washington without any need to shill for $50,000+. I put the PLUS sign in there because since Skinner had absolutely NO ACCOUNTING of the Scamdy money taken in, that figure could be well in excess of $50,000. Since Scamdy had his appeal going on OVER a hundred other Leftist websites, it is a good chance that he pocketed a SIZABLE chunk of change over and above what it cost him for mere (non-cancerous) pancreatic surgery. One interesting thing about this thread is not ONE word from Sknner or Pied Piper Pitt since they are both hoping that Scamdy just go away. Somehow Scamdy seems to have a bizarre hold over both of them. So let us now enter this Dummieland thread where all thought of Scamdys supposed cancer is tossed down the Memory Pitt in Bolshevik Red while the commentary of your humble correspondent, who thinks Scamdy is just $10 away from mentioning cancer, is in the [brackets]:
How is Andy doing?
[Wonderfully. Scamdy is recuperating quickly from ROUTINE non-cancerous pancreatic surgery. Thanks to all the money he raked in over and above what was needed for the unnecessary Johns Hopkins operation, Scamdy has more than enough to enjoy a great recuperation period in the Caribbean.]
I assume we are allowed to ask that again. How is he feeling?
[Be careful how you ask that. If you ask why he went to Johns Hopkins unnecessarily because he did NOT have pancreatic cancer, you will probably be tombstoned.]
Well lets see...The incision is still tender...but my appetite is coming back and I am regaining more of my strength every day. I got back home late last night and it was awesome to sleep in my own bed again. Thanks for asking and for the concern! It has meant so much to me what DU has done for me. You all rock. I still have another pahse of treatment but the doctor is confident I will make a full recovery. Mentally I am in that space and truly, I am feeling better everyday.
[Recuperation from NON-CANCEROUS pancreatic surgery is fairly rapid, Scamdy. BTW, why no thank you to all the suckers you conned for a Johns Hopkins pancreatic cancer operation that you did NOT need?]
Hey, man, you oughta be in bed asleep, regaining your strength. It's great to hear from you, and I'm thrilled you're posting. Keep up with vitamins and good fruits and veggies, and drink only distilled water. I am so serious about this. We all love ya, dear. Keep posting, you make us all feel so good inside.
[Make us feel so good inside and let us believe that you really did need that money we wasted on you to go to Johns Hopkins for a pancreatic cancer operation that you did NOT need.]
I have slept alot over the last 2 weeks. today I felt the best I have since surgery. Like I say my strength is coming back more and more each day.
[Youve certainly slept a lot better than Pied Piper Pitt, Scamdy. He is so worried sick about how you used him to put over an enormous con for a pancreatic cancer operation that you did NOT need, that he hasnt slept since April.]
This is wonderful news! I'm glad to hear that you're up and about!
[Yes, this is wonderful news. Thank God Scamdy never had pancreatic cancer in the first place. If he did, he would probably still be flat on his back instead of being his chipper self and singing Broadway show tunes over the cell phone from his ICU.]
HI, Andy! Glad to hear you're back home and getting better! Appetite is a good sign...
[Scamdy can now afford to go to Ruths Chris Steakhouse on an almost daily basis thanx to all that money you folks sent him for an unnecessary Johns Hopkins pancreatic cancer operation which did NOT take place.]
Yes it is...although I have found my tastes have changed...for example. I used to love tomatoes...now they taste like straw and celery is peach sweet to me. Apparently that is one of the side effects of pancreatic surgery...changed taste buds.
[I bet Roast DUmmie suckerling tastes mighty sweet to you, Scamdy.]
pineapple and papaya are the best for you and not cooked, either. you gotta keep your weight up, my dear.
[Actually, Scamdy could stand to LOSE a few pounds since he is about to enter the Guinness Book of Records as the FATTEST pancreatic cancer patient in history.]
Somebody used to tell me that carrot juice was really really good for you. Good to hear you're doing well, Andy! Keep it up!
[Scamdy prefers Yellow-bellied Sapsucker.]
I am eating like a madman the last couple of days in fact I ate dinner and I am hungry again.
[Yeah, all that chemotherapy is giving you quite an appetite, Scamdy.]
for example tonight I had real turkey breast sliced on a tortilla with roasted red peppers lettuce and dijon mustard. It was yummmmmmy. For breakfast I had 9 grain bread with grits and 2 eggs.
[Dont hold back. Pig out at your local buffet, Scamdy. After all it is well known that pancreatic cancer patients develop quite an appetite.]
Well Joan Krawitz is honorable and I think Ms Harris' troubles are just beginning. But I am not going to focus on her. My job right now is to get well...that is where my focus must and will be.
[Methinks YOUR troubles are just beginning, Scamdy. I am sure there will be an investigation into YOUR fraud. Your job right now is to use those enormous funds you scammed to hire a good defense attorney.]
Is it very nice to hear the good news! And I am glad it all worked out in terms of getting great treatment. You gave of yourself and that inspired others to take care of your best interest.
[The ease with which Scamdy conned the DUmmies out of $50,000 for pancreatic cancer operation at Johns Hopkins which NEVER took place will certainly inspire other con artists to enter DUmmieland.]
Hint from a recent surgery patient: Get a neosporin scar patch at the pharmacy. I had a hysterectomy last year and my scar is 100% gone! This is an amazing product.
[Dont give Scamdy any ideas. He might end up hitting on the DUmmies for another $50,000 for a hysterectomy operation.]
Hey I have ICU and scar pics... I just don't want them posted on that website. you know the one I mean.
[DUmmie FUnnies or Scamdy.Com?]
Wow, Andy, it is TOO good to hear from you....And sounding so chipper, too!! Glad you are coming out of this. I knew you'd beat this thing.
[Careful careful. It is okay to use the vague term thing but DONT use the word cancer or it could mean your tombstoning.]
Andy, this is wonderful to hear! Nothing like being back at home too. Lots of rest now, heal up, and yep, be in the place where you'll be after the next phase of treatment.
[Scamdys next phase of treatment will be sun & sea therapy in the Caribbean.]
I have a couple of rounds of chemo and radiation to go through...but the doctor said I should be fine.
[Please send money for unnecessary chemo and radiation that needs to follow the non-existent pancreatic cancer operation.]
Good to see you back!! Now, close your eyes and visualize. a complete recovery and perfect health! I'm serious, it works
[It sure does. Obvious scams ALWAYS work in Dummieland.]
I have been doing that. I am using a screen nightly to screen all the bad stuff from my body. I know visualizations work...
[Scamdy is now in the process of visualizing another reality of a Dummieland scam.]
OK good night everyone...I am going to lay down and rest.
[Meanwhile, one the other side of the continent from Scamdy, Pied Piper Pitt is lying awake worrying about his defense plea when he is charged with aiding and abetting Scamdy.]
The taste bud's connected to the pancreas, the pancreas' connected to the real ass...
No mention of radiation or chemo...hmmmm
SD
Oh, there's the mention of chemo or radiation. Only a couple of rounds, Andy? You got lucky.
Thank God they have plenty of free expression over at DU, unlike the oppressive fascist domain of Free Republic.
How is he feeling?
He feels good, he feels great, gonna have the world on a plate, starting here, starting now...
You know, whenever PJ mentions Andy singing show tunes, I always picture him having a voice like Ethel Merman. His time in the ICU must have looked and sounded very much like the hospital flashback in Airplane.
Well lets see...
[Consults medical textbook so he knows how he's supposed to feel after pancreatic cancer surgery]
but my appetite is coming back
Must...not...make...obvious...joke...
I still have another pahse of treatment but the doctor is confident I will make a full recovery.
Wow, not only one of the vanishingly small percentage of pancreatic cancer survivors, but the only one known to medicine who has gone 5 months without treatment or weight loss and then survived it. Truly Andy, the Force is with you!
[Recuperation from NON-CANCEROUS pancreatic surgery is fairly rapid, Scamdy. BTW, why no thank you to all the suckers you conned for a Johns Hopkins pancreatic cancer operation that you did NOT need?]
It is pretty sad...if the DUmmies are half as generous and caring as they say they are, he could have raised the cash just by saying, "I have a mass on my pancreas that needs to be removed. Can you help?" They can blame us and their tombstoned exiles for "slander" of Andy all they want, but the real fault is his for hyping and their's for believing someone they know has stolen fundraising money before.
Appetite is a good sign...
Must...not...make...obvious...joke...
Yes it is...although I have found my tastes have changed...
Let me guess...filet mignon every night?
pineapple and papaya are the best for you and not cooked, either. you gotta keep your weight up, my dear.
Must...not...make...obvious...joke...
Somebody used to tell me that carrot juice was really really good for you.
It was just coincidence that the guy made his living selling carrot juice.
am eating like a madman the last couple of days in fact I ate dinner and I am hungry again.
Must...not...make...obvious...joke...
[Yeah, all that chemotherapy is giving you quite an appetite, Scamdy.]
In all seriousness...dead on proof the cancer was a lie. If they removed cancer he'd be up to his frontal lobe in chemo drugs. If they removed some other mass (which he and his doctors would have known was NOT cancerous) he would be hungry because his body would need extra intake to accomplish the healing.
My job right now is to get well...that is where my focus must and will be.
But then...back to verifiable paper ballots!
And I am glad it all worked out in terms of getting great treatment. You gave of yourself and that inspired others to take care of your best interest.
You gave of yourself, and only asked for underwear in return.
Hint from a recent surgery patient: Get a neosporin scar patch at the pharmacy. I had a hysterectomy last year and my scar is 100% gone! This is an amazing product.
[Dont give Scamdy any ideas. He might end up hitting on the DUmmies for another $50,000 for a hysterectomy operation.]
Yes, I can see it now...
"Dear DU family,
I am brokenhearted to tell you that my doctor has diagnosed me with fast-growing uterine cancer and a radical hysterectomy is needed immediately to save my life. Though the survival rate for this particular cancer is stunningly low and the survival prognosis is miserable, I will gladly take the time to wait while you send me money so I can get this done at the Mayo Clinic instead of at any of the medieval butcher shops that they call hospitals here in Seattle.Thanks in advance,
AndyP.S. Anyone who asks why I need a hysterectomy when I am clearly male will be tombstoned immediately, and I will turn them in to the government along with that mean old Bev Harris.
P.P.S. I am expecting to eat a lot post-op, even though large amounts of chemo will be all that saves me from certain death. Please send a hearty dessert or entree recipe along with your donation.
P.P.P.S. Gore Vidal says, "Whattup, homies?" He's soooooo cool, isn't he?
Hey I have ICU and scar pics...
Hmmmm...well, none of that would disprove what has become clear, that he screamed "cancer" when there was none.
And sounding so chipper, too!!
Give me $50,000, and I'll sound awfully chipper, too.
I'm serious, it works
Got John Kerry sworn in on 20 January, didn't it?
have been doing that. I am using a screen nightly to screen all the bad stuff from my body. I
More show tunes! "Gonna visualize that cancer right outta my hair..." How about more classic show tune action from South Pacific? "Some enchanted evening...you will scam the DUmmies, you will scam the DUmmies with a website cancer plea..." "Once you have the cash, never...let...it...gooooooooooooo!"
I know visualizations work...
He visualized himself counting $50,000 in small bills, and lo and behold...
Why do you care if we care?
You do Scamdy a disservice... I think he's collected far more than $50,000 through this venture, and until we see full and complete accounting records for every donation and expenditure, I'll maintain that as a stipulated fact.
It's called a "ZOT" in the real world, DUmmie.
And exactly whose fault is that? Care to take a guess? As I said before, Scamdy could have cleared this up a long time ago. It requires only a few documents. A diagnosis of 'pancreatic cancer' dated prior to the money shill, and a verified accounting of the money collected.
There is only one reason that this hasn't been done and I leave that up to you to discern.
Any crap about privacy etc. etc. should be left on the doorstep. The FOA have been posting supposed 'proof' for weeks and none of it has been worth a tinkers damn.
My sister had cancer a year ago (second on 11 yrs). They did a lumpectomy and checked her lymph nodes. It had not spread and they followed up with chemo and radiation. She still has not regained her health and has developed new problems as a result of the radiation.
You ARE a regular at DU, right?
Projection: The psychological condition of naive or unconcious attribution of one's own feelings, attitudes, or desires to others. (It's in the dictionary, look it up)
Not when it happened....I freaked out....I can laugh now..
How long after asking questions about Andy did you get to stay until you got the axe?
You disparage FR, Yet your dissenting voice can still be heard here.
... mosquito nets? sunblock...?
There are those on the left that are also questioning this Andy thing. In fact, one of the mods at Scamdy.com put in his profile that his website is the Daily Kos. That Scamdy site is made of those on the right and left. Even back on May 17, Will Pitt himself posted his doubts at DU. He had all kinds of questions.
Don't crow too loudly about how great and open FR is. "Xaos" apparently got banned. I asked the moderator to explain why. I didn't see any reason for it, and if we are to contiune saying how open we are, we shouldn't kneejerk ban anyone with an opposing viewpoint. As long as they are civil, of course.
So unless xaos was swearing or posting porno on some other thread, I don't know why he got banned.
SD
I didn't think s/he was banned. I clicked on his name and got his/her about page. It does not say banned or suspended. I went by that.
