Hello all,

I’m e-mailing you because I have not seen something particularly important on any of your blogs. I may have skipped something important you may have written, as I do not frequent the top ten blogs or so. If that is the case I apologize. Quite frankly, I wouldn’t be surprised if you just decided to up and delete this e-mail. I’m getting used to it by those in power.

The issue I am talking about is Terri Schiavo. I’m sure you’ve all heard about the case and seen, or been involved with, the lesser points of the case. Personally, my first impression about this case was that it was a waste of our time and she should be put out of her misery. Fortunately, I was provided a link to a few of her videos where she’s actually doing something. All I can do for you is pass on the links and a little background information:

Some people have said that these are no more than auto responses. I can tell you from experience that this is a load of crap. A few years back I had a cousin that had cerebral palsy. I’m not completely sure of the way this particular disease works, but I’ve been led to believe that it’s a degenerative nerve disease, in which motor functions deteriorate, unless you get physical therapy. Well, Terri hasn’t had any therapy either. Here are some people with cerebral palsy so you can compare the two people:

Some of the people on my blog site, the other place I’m putting this up, will note that this looks a lot like a post I wrote two days ago. Well, it is what I put up two days ago. This is what convinced me of the truth. I hope it convinces you as well.

P.S. Consider this the ransom part: All trackbacks, links, reply e-mails, etc. that I’m informed about will be added to this article as an update. Here’s a chance to prove that all of you high-level bloggers have a reason to be where you’re at. Call it some street cred. if you want. I’ll be waiting patiently.

Time is 12:56AM EST I'll be updating as the comments/emails/trackbacks roll in.
