Who wants to see Hannah Georgas in concert on May 15th? Only $14.50 for tickets.

This one is still my favourite. Probably everyone saw it on TV already, but in case you missed it:

I always thought of those discs as hard discs and retained "floppy" for the ones the actually flopped. I remember when I got my Commodore 64 and my uncle gave me a whole tray of floppy disc games........ ah, nostalgia.

"The Man Your Man Could Smell Like" is without a doubt the best ad I have ever seen. I've watched it 3 times!

Lede: Sony has announced it will stop selling the 30-year-old storage format in Japan in March 2011 because of dwindling sales.

People still buy floppy disks?

Well it wasn't exactly the patient. It was a co-worker. Craziness analysis was still warranted, I think.

For the record, wrap them in some gauze or a cloth and put them in some ice. Even if the tip doesn't survive, you'll be thankful for the protection of those severed nerves and you'll dramatically reduce the chance of infection.

And it will hurt like a bitch once the freezing wears off.

I have a feeling you can grant the nearly short-fingered person a bit of slack in the crazy department. There was probably a fair bit of shock involved in the process. I can see the logic functions getting clouded in panic and crazy quite easily. ... and they don't really provide a "how to" manual for when you lose your finger tips.

That's good, but it can't beat the classic:


Also, I sewed on some milk soaked fingertips. But I wanted to know if I was the crazy person, or the patient was.

I agree with Beck. Not applicable to fingers etc., and most likely appropriated from broken-teeth-in-milk approach. ... which I've heard of from mothers and sports coaches alike (not that I know of anyone who carries milk to a hockey/soccer/etc. game anyway...). It's supposed to do something for the fresh bone break?? I dunno exactly.


Is this something you've experienced relatively recently, Par?
