Doctors at Baylor (a very Baptist institution, keep that in mind) take a woman off life support because she can't pay. Pro-lifers don't seem to notice or care this time.

I wanted to wait a couple of days to froth about this, because I thought it might be possible that the very lynch mob that raised so much hell over doctors trying to carry out Terri Schiavo's wishes just hadn't heard about it yet.

But surely by now, there should be some ruckus. I mean, it's been what, two or three weeks? That's got to be enough time for them to get pissed off and mobilize the troops? Because surely, no true pro-life individual would allow something like this to go unprotested, right?

Well, none of them except the National Right to Life Foundation.

...and the American Family Association.

...and Concerned Women for America, who strangely has plenty of free time in which to bay for Mattel's blood over a copy/paste mishap.

...and Pat Robertson.

...and our lovely president, who raised so much hell over Terri Schiavo, and his friends in the U.S. legislature who tried to bully the courts into forcing her doctors to keep her alive.

All of whom are known to be pro-life, and very loudly and proudly so.

In lighter news:

McAfee pulls a minor Enron, gets bitchslapped with $50M fine.

All of us in the tech room just burst out laughing at that.

Me, I lost what little faith I had in McAfee the day I watched it quarantine half its own program files... including the quarantine manager. That's like... like EATING YOUR OWN DIGESTIVE TRACT or something.

No Escape

There is this guy, Nick Greenlee, aka Peacer. He has made (and just freshly finished) a Silent Hill CG fanmovie entitled No Escape.

I just finished watching the last two parts.

I will declare the movie "fucking awesome" and leave it at that. Huge downloads, but damn well worth it.

I warn you, some of the animation in the first part or two is a little iffy, but stay with it because after that he gets way better, and keeps improving at an astounding rate. I also warn you that some bits will scare the ever-loving shit out of you.

This dude is entirely self-taught. He is also apparently made entirely of win.

Four teenagers steal lots of baby Jesuseseses, plan to make a bonfire with them.

The baby Jesii are safe and in protective custody at the police station.

Best sentence in the whole article:

"Anyone able to identify their particular baby Jesus will be able to be reunited."
