The Kids Place Live channel on Sirius/XM plays it every so often, too. My wife will leave it on that channel even after dropping our son off at school because they play more unique/entertaining stuff there than on other stations.
If you get a cancer that you can and do survive, you'll probably have lifelong health problems as a result, as much from the treatment as the cancer itself, and you won't ever really be completely cured.
As a cancer survivor going on five years now, I wouldn't necessarily say others should expect health problems as the result of their treatment. The chemo I went through was cardiotoxic, but if you're smart and dedicated, you can mitigate the risk for long term problems.
I've become a fairly avid runner in the past few years as a way of keeping my heart strong. The last time I went in for a checkup, my bp was a very good 112/67, and I have better cardio conditioning than ever. I'll need it since I'm going to be running a marathon in a little over 3 months.
That said, here's my plug for charitiable donations to the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. Every bit helps! Chemo and radiation suck; help fund the research towards curing blood cancers!:)
Jamie's the one who tries NOT to get hurt on the show, of course.
Of course, when he does get hurt, it looks more painful than Adam's frequent miscues. That shot he gave himself when cutting the line to his handheld grappling hook winch was rough...it almost ranks up there with Adam putting his lips in the vacuum motor.
Then I guess if I worked for Amazon they'd be submitting a patent application for "An old newpaper with mustard and grease stains."
It's Amazon, so they would have to add "On/via the Internet" to that.

Let's see, you have an elliptical machine and a bicycle, but don't have enough time to use them; however, you also have a Nintendo Wii, which you do seem to have time for, and you're considering a machine that works in conjuction with video games.
Sounds like video games are a higher priority than health for you. 30-60 minutes a day on the elliptical or bike a few times a week would be a good start. The weight won't disappear overnight, but over time, it will have some positive benefits.
I went through chemo and radiation for a T-cell lymphoma about 2.5 years ago. I'm curious about what the possibilities for this type of treatment are when the T-cells themselves are the cancer.
I work for a division of a large financial firm, and we are required to download a list of Specially Designated Nationals from the Treasury Department and compare names from it against new accounts and transfers. The list includes lists of suspected terrorists, and they're not all Arabic (think Irish Republican Army).
The Olympics are for physical athletes, not people with unusually high twitch-response ability.
I don't think video games should be considered for the Olympics, but I disagree here. If you want a gold medal or world record in any timed race event, you have to have unusually high twitch response.
See Justin Gatlin for example. His 9.766 time in the 100m wasn't good enough for sole ownership of the world record after it was rounded up to 9.77.

The lead baloon engineer....
Why was he trying to engineer a lead balloon? Didn't he watch that episode of MythBusters?

They've also given us the ever useful "bork, bork, bork!"
It also means you haven't seen or don't remember Office Space
Is it that damn difficult to do some digging before publishing on Slashdot?
Survey says....yes! Given the choice between having things right or having them right now, more people seem to be choosing the latter.
Oh, and if we're going to be digging before publishing on Slashdot, does that mean we can Slashdot before articles get cross posted to Digg?
Advertising.
Companies that still print catalogs could link the items to their website for quick ordering. Magazine ads could link directly to websites.
HDMI ports are included. The HDMI cable isn't.
That would be....a miracle!

Did you live in Troy in a previous life?
It's the one with the goatee.
When I first tried to view this article, I got the famous "Nothing to see here. Please move along." message. Has this ever been more apropos?
Forget non-profit organizations...I'm going for a government grant to study this disorder.
Of course, if I'm doing important research like this, I'm going to have to have access to the latest technology. I'll need a hefty grant.

How long until the Googleplex renames itself Skynet?
They're just applying the rule that if you can't say something nice, say nothing.

Asteroids, eh? You should try Geometry Wars. :)
