if it's incurable, how is he cancer-free after treatment?

Oh and I had an acquantance who had a sporting injury which revealed a rare/unusual bone cancer. He felt fine. He died within a year as a result of the aggressive chemotherapy and subsequent weak immune system, not the goddamn cancer.

Ya gotta love this:


TOPEKA, Kan. -- Police in Topeka, Kan., say one holdup suspect's unique outfit made it easy enough to find her - because she showed up hours later wearing the same clothes to watch the city's St. Patrick's Day Parade.

Radio station WIBW-AM reports the 26-year-old woman was taken into custody Thursday afternoon after an officer spotted her watching the parade along a downtown street.

Authorities believe she entered a convenience store around 3:30 that morning holding a screwdriver and demanding money from a clerk.

Surveillance tape showed her leaving the store in a bright blue warm-up suit with a broad yellow stripe - the same attire the officer noticed along the parade route hours later.

And if they had found the car keys, they could have driven out.

The bride doesn't look too happy, and the groom's left arm is like 6 feet long to reach around her waist like that.

WTF? What is up with that arm? Is it the camera angle?

I would like a cake made to look like me, then I'll jump out of that cake. We'll call it "art."
