a quad copter landed on the white ouse lawn once somewhat recently they analyzed the gently caress out of it and determined the owner lost contact/control with it so they didn't charge him with anything but it made it

I wear workout pants, funny t-shirts, and sneakers every day. If it's cold I'll throw on a hoodie. At home I'll occasionally wear a bath robe. ~~ TECH LIFE ~~

One station recreated the night of Trayvon Martin’s death in CGI, using the recordings of 911 calls made by neighbors. I watched a virtual George Zimmerman chase down Martin even as the 911 operator says, “We don’t need you to do that.”

fishmech is right and stymie is wrong pancreatic cancer grows very slowly, they caught it really early when it was isolated to a small part of his pancreas, his wife and friends *begged* him to get surgery, but his response was "I didn’t want my body to be opened…I didn’t want to be violated in that way." later when he opted for surgery it had already spread and was too late

Stymie posted:heavens, someone didn't want to go under the knife (which is always extremely risky under the best circumstances) for a nominally extended lifetime filled with pain and suffering? jobs died of neuroendocrine pancreatic cancer quote:They are uncommon cancers with about 1,000 new cases per year in the United States.[1] They account for 3% to 5% of pancreatic malignancies and overall have a better prognosis than the more common pancreatic exocrine tumors.[1,2] Five-year survival is about 55% when the tumors are localized and resected but only about 15% when the tumors are not resectable.[2] Overall 5-year survival rate is about 42%.[1] 55% five year survival rate on cases amenable to surgery, similarly high 10-year rates. yeah, surgery sucks, but that doesn't sound like a "nominal" extension to me he was just a total jackass.
