The random political thoughts thread (Part Deux)

The time I had a kidney stone a morphine drip did seem to act quickly. But that is the only time before today that I've ever taken non-local painkillers (the kidney stone passed before I came off the morphine). My sample size is so small who knows what works and what doesn't.

Steve, since they don't seem to be acting as anything other than a sleeping pill I'd already decided to skip them unless pain becomes absolutely unbearable or I can't get to sleep.

sleepyjeff: a bullet that does a $0.04 boost to the stateside economy can do a lot more than in damage to the warside economy and vice versa.
