just heard Alex Trebek has beaten stage 4 pancreatic cancer. I’ll take “Alex Trebek just showed cancer who the goddamn boss is” for $200.

I'll take, "A very, very, very, very rich man beat a disease, where poor people can't. "

"Who is Magic Johnson? . . . Alex?"

"Correct . . . You win the daily double standard."
so I don't doubt his money helped (also he's Canadian)…but the survival rates for that particular cancer…

so I'd say Alex was pretty damn lucky

per da wikeez, the diagnosis was announced publicly in March of this year.  the actual discovery was probably some weeks, maybe even months, before… but Trebek hasn't survived his first year yet.  so let's not get too excited (or be too big of a downer) just yet.

Thank, you. 
I am not sure where to post this so I will post it here. I bought a parking lot ticket for a upcoming show and now I have decided to stay the night in DC instead, so is there a way to cancel the parking ticket or anything such as that?

Thanks.

Seeing, Thatguy's name . . . makes me smile, that I knew him in fleeting glances of attended show realities, and sad, that I never will again. 

Grateful, are you trying to say that I can give away my parking ticket, to Hot Chip?  How would, that work?

My dad died from pancreatic cancer. It's a rough one. We'll see how long RBG lasts. :( And I'll care more about her than Mr. Un-woke Alex:

"You know, when the #MeToo movement started, I had discussions with the staff during production meetings," he said. "I said, 'My gosh, this has got to be a scary time for men.'"




There is at least a bit of hope if the tumor is only limited to the pancreas itself.

When the tumor is only in the pancreas and doesn’t spread, the five-year survival rate is 37 percent, according to Pancreatic Cancer Action Network, or PanCAN.

I was out for a run around the lake this morning and out of the corner of my eye I saw a baby squirrel in the middle of the trail, unusually close to me. It startled me and made me jump. It was startled too, and ran…right under where I was about to land. I tried to freeze myself and change direction in mid-air….but it all happened too quickly. I landed on him. He started struggling to run but couldn’t really go anywhere. He appeared to have an injured leg, pain and fear was in his eyes and blood was pouring out of his mouth. I made a quick decision to put him out of his misery. Tears came to my eyes. I can only imagine how bad my brother, who had to put down his dog earlier in the week, must feel. And F those hunters who shoot animals for sport.

I shot him full of the heroin I had in my pocket. JK. No, I put my $160 running shoes at risk and stomped and kicked him off the trail. Saddest day of my week, I need to go wash my shoes.
