Posted by samzenpus on from the dedication-to-the-job dept.

Tommy Christopher, who writes for mediate.com, has reporting in his blood, so much so that he livetweeted every part of his recent heart attack. "I gotta be me. Livetweeting my heart attack. Beat that!" and "This is not like the movies. Most deadpan heart attack evar. Still hurts even after the morphine," were among his updates as he was rushed to the hospital. Christopher is now in stable condition after recovering from emergency surgery.

    Health care is a moral issue. All civilized societies take care of even their least fortunate members. I do not want to be a part of a society that callously lets people die in the streets. If you aren't willing to help, you should not get the benefits of being a member of society.

      That's your mom's crotch juice, not spittle, boy. Now sit down and stop interrupting the grownups.
