As far as I know, Alan is in good health and doesn't need to go near a
hospital.
I imagine you could stick him in a bag full of dog-poop, and write the
"N" word on him with a Magic Marker, but I suspect that routine was been
done before. :-D

Default OM back in hospital yet again

On Tue, 18 Mar 2008 01:23:17 -0600, in a place far, far away, Pat
Flannery made the phosphor on my monitor glow in
such a way as to indicate that:

I sent a message to him today asking if he was still alive.
No reply yet.
I should of of course stated that if he wasn't, there was no need to
reply to the message.
Because if OM replied to me from beyond the gates of mortality, there is
going to be a major shake-up in my view of how reality works.
Imagine...just for a moment...the concept of a _ZOMBIE_ OM, prowling the
world from beyond the grave.
They're going to find trolls with their throats ripped out and their
brains eaten. =-O


Brains? What brains?

Yes, I've been checking every day.


No reply to my message to him yet either.
There's no obituary for him in the Austin newspapers though.

Would anyone really care enough to post one?

Email me with the name of the hospital, Pat. I'll call as soon as I know
where to call. If you don't know, then I guess I'll have to call 'em
all.

I can't stand this.

Good luck, under HIPAA they generally can't even say if he's been admitted.

And btw, while OM and I generally don't see eye to eye, pass on my best
wishes for him also.

I sure hope he gets through this fine; because, vulgar and obscene that
he is, I can't really help but dearly and profoundly missing him if he
goes.


I certainly would miss him if that ever came to pass. Some of the
creative profanities he posted regarding the "infestation" were trully
memorable. More so the information he posted regarding the ASTP and
columbia.


I can guarantee you I'd like to sit down with him and shoot
the breeze with him for hour upon hour.
That would be a worthwhile and memorable conversation to have in one's life.


Wholeheartedly agreed.

He really showed his measure when he stayed awake for 36 hours straight
doing the "Columbia loss FAQ".
That was _sharp_....that was really, outstandingly, _sharp_.
No one whoever posted to sci.space.history ever pulled off something
like that.


Had SSS been alive in 1986, I'm sure he would have done one for
challenger as well.

When you do get in touch, please pass on my best wishes for a speedy
recovery. I'm sure he's hanging in there, betcha the hospital simply
lost their internet feed. Y'know a number 6 nurse designed virus ;-)
Please mention that to him too :-)

I'm sure the Japanese did when Godzilla died...every single time. :-)

He never mentioned the name of the place.
