“You wouldn’t know a zot situation if it bit you on the a#$.”
Quote of the thread right there :)
“Oh yes, btw, troll got the zot...”
Good news!
Excellent Point!

Imagine being 31 years old and having to make the agonizing decision to discontinue the life-support keeping your comatose spouse alive. Now imagine that spouse waking up and asking for Mexican food.
“It’s crazy. It’s absolutely crazy,” Jill Finley, the woman who was supposed to die, told TODAY co-host Meredith Vieira during an interview Monday. “It is truly a miracle that I’m here talking to you today.”
~Snip~
Ryan had made his agonizing decision. He would pull the plug.
“She’s my soul mate and my wife, my everything in this whole world,” Ryan told Vieira, the words struggling against his emotions. “And it was up to me whether or not she lived or not. That’s a bad thing to go through.”
On June 9, at about 6 p.m., Ryan and Jill’s family said their goodbyes and doctors disconnected Jill from the machines that had been keeping her alive. She didn’t die immediately, and after a time, Ryan had to go to a judge to sign papers relating to the decision to disconnect Jill from life support.One last ‘rally’
He returned around 11 p.m. to sit with her and wait for the end in the hospice where she was being cared for.
“About 11:45, she started getting restless,” he said, an eventuality he had been prepared for. “People told me they call it the last rally. When a person is about to pass, they tend to regain some body function, be able to talk or move — things that they hadn’t been able to do previously.”
She also started mumbling. “I thought that was it, that was the last rally,” he said.
But it was soon clear she wasn’t just mumbling. She said, “Get me out of here.” Then she added another request: “Take me to Ted’s and take me to the Melting Pot,” naming two restaurants where she liked to indulge her passion for Mexican food.

Thanks 8mm.
What a wonderful story!
Thanks for refreshing my memory, tenth—and I too spit with you at Dohrn and at U of I at Chicago! {spit!}
The troll said he was leaving and I went to bed. It seemed like a pretty non-eventful zot.
Of course when the troll actuall puts troll in his name it makes them easy to spot!
But you do, don't you? What's it like to get bit on the a#$ by a zot? Does it hurt? Does it make you cry? Tell me all about it. Oh wait, you can't.
As Emily Litella (Gilda Radner) used to tell Jane Curtain on Weekend Update, Nevermind, _____!

Trolls can be fun. Kitties like them, sort of like cuddly hairballs that taste like Cheez-Its. Hey, it is ok to feed viking kitties Cheez-Its now and then.
BTW there is a cheese thread. We just got back from our neighbor who has the big wheels of Vermont cheddar select. It is the best we can find anywhere bar none, not even in Europe. We bought over a pound of wedge. I had some crumbled on a bison steak this afternoon. Really...
He was just playing it up for his PEERS (troll) onlookers. I guess that makes him a hero : )
I guess that's like being voted the "best looking" guy on the cell block.
You should melt some over some hot homemade apple pie. Though BB prefers omelets.
I would think it should bother a reasonable person, in time.
I would imagine the problems would become obvious sooner rather than later.
Troll omelets with limberger cheese are yummy!
Then how does one explain liberals?
Do you serves hash browns with troll omelets?
