Even if President Obama called me personally and invited me to go hunting with him, as much as I would be honored, I'd have to politely decline.<br /><br />B) I don't plan on doing anything with Dick Cheney EVER. In all honesty, I assume the feeling would be mutual if the man had ever as much as heard of me. If he were in my area and called me up to invite me to have a drink with him at a local tavern, I'd probably show up just out of curiosity, but how likely is that to happen? Ever? Not very likely, I can tell you. <br /><br />Regardless, i would no go hunting with the man. If I wouldn't even hunt with President Obama, I certainly would not do so with Dick cheney.AlexisARhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09797016673203467911noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6485729541580426717.post-88672540731089358942015-11-08T18:53:03.921-08:002015-11-08T18:53:03.921-08:00Even though the MD that I am writing about, wrote ...Even though the MD that I am writing about, wrote 3 books, she is not listed in Wikipedia. Yet the story of Dick Cheney's hunting accident has its own page in Wikipedia. He shot a lawyer. I have some advice for you, Alexis. Don't go hunting with Dick Cheney. Dick Cheney was drinking alcohol before he shot the guy but there is no law against drinking and shooting.Chuck Bluesteinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01291807414895185920noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6485729541580426717.post-10232166949085717282015-11-08T18:31:45.287-08:002015-11-08T18:31:45.287-08:00I guess you are referring to Dick Cheney shooting ...I guess you are referring to Dick Cheney shooting his friend. If someone cuts into human flesh a lot, I guess the perception of it changes. Also it must be different cutting into flesh for practice or cutting into it to perform a specific procedure and if you do it right, saving someone's life.<br /><br />I am in the process of writing that article on the M.D. She is very much into using alternative medicine since it is something that is good for people. But she points out there is no alternative way to help her husband who cut off 2 of his fingers then the conventional way. The surgeons spent 8 hours sewing those fingers back on.<br /><br />So you can always write an article what it is like to sew human flesh together and how it is not like sewing together cloth. One principle of holistic medicine is that what is good for the sick person is good for the well person and what is bad for the well person is bad for the sick person. For example drinking pomegranate juice can dissolve plaque in the arteries but is good for anyone to drink.<br /><br />One surgeon tried to cut plaque out of an artery and he could not because it was too hard. So he closed the guy up, but he did not want to tell the couple (he and his wife) that there is no hope for the guy. So instead he gave him instructions on eating a good diet and exercise. He did not expect it to work but it did.<br /><br />I just read that out of the drugs that were approved of to treat cancer in 2012, 90% of them cost over $100,000 a year to use. It is strange that this M.D. that I am writing about is not in Wikipedia but Huffington Post lists her as one of 16 health experts in the U.S.Chuck Bluesteinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01291807414895185920noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6485729541580426717.post-63608866498711593662015-11-08T12:27:22.939-08:002015-11-08T12:27:22.939-08:00I will never forget visiting a gross anatomy lab a...I will never forget visiting a gross anatomy lab at a medical school when I was 17.
