American Airlines food killed passenger, claims lawsuit {Gadling}
Dec 1st 2011 2:57PM 1) Was he the only person on the flight to eat the chicken?
2) If he was really obviously sick at the gate why did they board the plane instead of asking for an ambulance to take them to a local hospital?
3) If they had not been allowed to board by the airline because he was so sick would his family now be suing for not being allowed to fly home?
In my opinion this lawsuit is golddigging and should be dismissed before a judge even has to be bothered with it.
Obese passenger forces neighbor on US Airways flight to stand for 7 hours {Gadling}
Nov 23rd 2011 5:10PM I think he should sue the obese man who took up his seat for the cost of the flight as well as compensation for mental and physical anguish. It might help make people aware of their need to take responsibility for their size and purchase the space they need.
Woman Faces Foreclosure on House She Bought for $1 {AOL Real Estate}
Sep 9th 2011 9:53PM If the bank is going to take this home, then they at least owe this woman the cost of moving and restoration, including labor. They might decide it's cheaper to let her keep it.
I hope she gets the miracle she needs to keep her home. Wish I could help.

Mom Says Son's Life Was Saved Because of Facebook {ParentDish}
Jul 15th 2011 3:24PM If you've never heard of Kawasaki Disease (or any possible rare illness) you wouldn't know to ask the ER to check for it. ER doctors are generally really busy and so don't think about a RARE ILLNESS as a possible cause of illness, especially when the symptoms look like so many more common illnesses, most of which seem to always be "going around".
She did not NOT SEEK medical attention at all, she just thought she had a new fangled way to get some additional input. Experience is the best teacher and not every doctor has experience with every rare illness.
Dad Who Let Daughter, 8, Kickbox in Aussie Match Has Fight on His Hands {ParentDish}
Jul 12th 2011 10:32PM People are upset with the father of the 8-year-old girl, but apparently not with the father of the 7-year-old girl? Frankly, since dad is a kickboxer, who better to teach her. Sounds like she wants to do this and the girls were both wearing head protection and probably had other padding for protection. Would the reaction be the same if these were boys instead of girls? To me, the key is in parental supervision, following the rules and the kids wanting to participate.

Lullaby and Goodnight, Now 'Go the F@#! to Sleep' {ParentDish}
Apr 29th 2011 11:26AM I think this author could have made his point as effectively with a less vulgar word. Personally, i find that kind of language to be extremely low class and uneducated. Even the illiterate know how to use it and spell it.
