[Millee]

If I have to be operated on, I'd want to be operated on by a Dr. Organ, cool/funny name for a surgeon. RIP.

[dangus]

>> Dr. Alden Harken, who replaced Organ as chairman of the department, <<

"I AM the replacement Organ!"

[dangus]

"Organ Endowed Professorship"

Let's all make sure that the Organ is well-endowed, shall we?

[dangus]

"his brother, Henry Organ"

Bet he HATES it when people call him "Harry."

[dangus]

"A private service is planned for this evening."

I have an announcement to make: The Organ viewing will be held in private

[dighton]

Wondering who is next, to complete the inevitable three.

Rest in peace Cardinal Sin and Claude Organ.

Claude Organ? Sounds like the result of a very nasty cat fight.

[dangus]

"seven children — Claude H. III, Brian, Paul, Gregory, David, Sandra and Rita"

That's right! She's Sandy Organ!

[dangus]

*bow to the master*

[Luddite Patent Counsel]

No mention of his estranged brother, Hugh Organ.

Or Michael Jackson, denied little boys by his notoriety, behaving inappropriately at the Neverland Zoo. :o

"That's ignorant." :)

He was also president of the Society of Black Academic Surgeons;

Who is president of the Society of White Academic Surgeons?

eh. Since "hugh" is pronounced "hue," it doesn't really work... unless its both hugh and series.

Back off... the guy was a dispeller of racial myths, not a PV hack. THere was a time not so long ago when blacks needed to assert their rights in ways whites don't. SBAS is not necessarily akin to the Black Student Unions. (Although for all I know it may have become so, if it still exists.)

Back off...

You back off, (.) I asked a legitimate question to which I'll add another, where is the white congressional caucus? and another, where are the white student unions? I assume you don't know the answers since you tried in the best liberal democratic manner to avoid the question.

THere was a time not so long ago when blacks needed to assert their rights in ways whites don't.

And even accepting this as true you somehow think that this excuses anti-white racism (otherwise known as affirmative action) that is the law of thw land now?
