Back To The Blogging

Season's Greetings Bloggers,
I just realized it's been a while since I posted a blog. I know you've all been desperately awaiting my new post, just sitting on the site refreshing it every ten seconds. Well, probably not, but I'm sure at least one person will be excited to see that I've updated...and if that's not true, someone please at least pretend.
I'm going to forgo the usual anecdote and get straight to the topic at hand. There's a hospital in Maryland that recently banned cameras in the delivery room until five minutes after the birth. They say it's for the mother's privacy. That's very sweet and considerate of them, but aren't the cameramen usually the husbands, fathers or other people employed by the mother? How, then, are you protecting the aforementioned(dibs) mother by refusing cameras? I'm more inclined to believe that this is a preemptive measure to avoid evidence in a malpractice suit should something go wrong during the birth, as suggested by my comrades at Fox News. Further evidence supporting this theory is the fact that the mother in the case that made this matter public was delivering her eighth child. I'm pretty sure that someone who has delivered seven previous children isn't that concerned about privacy. The board at that hospital should find a new cop out.
Another big story emerging in the news: a group of journalists, or more accurately one member and blogger, is petitioning to have the term "illegal immigrants" changed to "undocumented immigrants". He sas that the current term is unconstitutional. I say whether you call them illegal, undocumented, undeclared, unregistered, or unofficial, they're still in the county how? Illegally. I'm all for rights for children of immigrants, who didn't have a choice in whether they followed our laws or not. I even support some kind of protection for those who are holding steady employment and doing honest work. Do I believe they should be forced to apply for citizenship? Yes. But instead of putting all of this time and energy into prosecuting the ones that we have here, let's beef up the borders to keep more from slipping through. Then we can decide what we want to call the ones still here.
In my last post( or maybe the one before that; they're all kind of a blur right now) I mentioned something about fruit having ovaries. According to my roommate and comrade Nick "TheOperation", this is true, because they have seeds. Fascinating.
Well that's all for right now. I'll try to be more consistent with my posts as we enter the new year. Also, I recently acquired the iPhone 4, so expect me to do a little bit of video blogging in the near future. Please let me know what you think of the videos as I post them. Until then, see you around...or, actually, I guess you'll see me, eh?
Many blessings to you and yours,
Sam
