Cruz Bustamante, the Cali Lt. Governor appears pixilated. He thinks he can get away with grabbing Greyout's job. I don't think so...

If they were moved to the head of the list because of their fame - it is wrong.

If they got to the head of the list because they were a better match than others for the available organ I see nothing wrong with it.

I am not familiar enough with the cases (I know nothing of Crosby) to give you any better answer. sorry, not trying to get out of answering, just being honest.

[RikaStrom]

Ok gang, I am off to work. I'm completely overjoyed by that, I want you to know. LOL

See you at lunch!

Have fun.

[Gabz]

[Texan5]

Damn shame, that. I'd have rather read that he was in tears over being deported to Canada and having his visa revoked.

[secret garden]

I was horrified by that. I wouldn't have even thought it funny if it had clinton in the first cartoon. Sick.

[PetroniDE]

Wrong kind of "KITTY". I was refering to the four-legged, pointy-ears, bushy-tailed, and sharp teeth version.

[Conspiracy Guy]

Not really it's an illegal substance and I don't use it. But as a teen I smoked my share and made A's. Maturity and USAF made me stop because it was against the law. Of course the best pot in the late 60's and early 70's was just that, pot. The crap that passes for pot nowdays is laced with PCP and other addictive substances and would be shunned by the old hippies. I'd be curious as to the sources of pot used in any study that determined it as addictive.

[NeoCaveman]

Damn shame, that. I'd have rather read that he was in tears over being deported to Canada and having his visa revoked.

What a beautiful dream.
