Terri Schindler-Schiavo update

Late Tuesday, the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals in Atlanta has issued the following: "The Appellant's emergency motion for leave to file out of time is granted." This was in response to Robert and Mary Schindler's request that the court hear the entire case, not merely the procedural history.
This means that the court will consider hearing their motion to reconnect Terri's feeding tube. It's not a lot, but as she is dying, it is at least a hope.
The court for the 11th Circuit is, of course, a federal court, which was granted jurisdiction by the U.S. government on the 21st of March.

so that we do not have to deal with the inconvenience of grief.
"....what you've had to do: turning death into a fighting chance to live."
of narrative focus, however. Not so his red shirts..
And he wore a red shirt every episode.
And don't get me started on Uhura.
I hope prayers will be answered for Terri Schiavo and her family to have any chance at all for her right to live.
"Where there is ilfe, there is hope."
There is always hope.
also a Star Trek fan? Right leaning or left leaning, so many posts reference Star Trek, Star Wars or to the series of books the author of the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Universe wrote. I feel like I have missed out and I am not a part of the club. I am always asking my husband about Star Trek episodes that get used as analogies in threads. Like the Star Trek episode where apparently this life force keeps the crew constantly mad at each other and the only way they.....oh forget it, I can't even remember how that one goes. Oh well.
did either ever get any away team action?
wonder what they were up to while the gang was away every week, actually. hmm.
and more revealing of teh secret elite, is who here is a H2G2 fan? Specifically, Primary and Secondary Phases?
holy zarquon's singing fish!
But I know what I would have been up to with Uhura.
I seem to recall liking the very last one though - great little bit about the art of making sandwiches.
Enjoyed Dirk Gentley too.
Is that the one with the spaceship powered by the improbability drive? I nearly wet my pants laughing at that one.
Or was that the Restaurant at the end of the universe?
Life, The Universe and Everything was my personal favorite. Bistromathics. Krikkit. Glorious.
Kirk can have the alien bimbo of the week. I'd have been on the mother ship riding the turbo lifts with Uhura.
I am fearful of getting my hopes up at all. But 1 shot in a million is just a little better than 0. Since the judiciary has been for all intents monolithic on this, I think our last best hope would have been Jeb going medieval.
There's just something special about triple-breasted whores from Eroticon 6.
Recall the comment made by Mikey Schiavo's attorney on seeing Terri after 10 days or so without her tube? You know, "she looks beautiful". Now if that is the case. Then "Barrister" Felos must see Norman Bates' Mom as an absolute "knockout".
Hallelujah!!!!!
