The Greater Hope--And on Prime Time TV!

It has been a little busy around here. Last week I fell and sprained my wrist and bruised some ribs, had my phone/PDA stolen and all of my contacts erased, got a ticket for not coming to a complete stop at a stop sign, watched as my 4-year old West fell from the kitchen table and split open his nostril while trying to play Tarzen on the blinds' cord, missed a $150 check on my checking account causing 6 overdrawn charges of $35 from 6 cups of coffee at $1.75 each from Starbuck's, caught the flu and was laid out for a few days, fought with my wife and felt a great distance for 3 days, escorted a neighborhood friend of my children back to his father and mother to apologize profusely for the cuts on his black eye from the pounding he took from one of my sons, and took a verbal lashing from a guy at Home Depot who when I calmly asked which checkout line he was standing in, angrily replied, "WHICHEVER LINE COMES OPEN FIRST!"

I tell you this less to receive your empathy, although I wouldn't reject it, and more to give you something to laugh about. For the reality is, and this is NOT rhetoric, all of the above seemed less hopeless after I witnessed the following clip on UTube taken from an E.R. episode.

You will be amazed at what NBC allowed to be viewed during Prime Time on national TV. You will be even more amazed at the fact that you know there is an answer to this desperate man's plight.
