My take on politics, some pop culture, restaurants, life in San Francisco, pets, and anything else that pops into my head.

Stephen Hawking very ill
Stephen Hawking, the wheelchair bound physicist was rushed to the hospital and is very ill. He has Lou Gehrig's disease. He's nearly completely paralyzed, cannot speak, and was not expected to survive into his 30's. He's now 67. What cracks me up about this guy is that in the mid-90's he left his wife for one of his nurses. Really? How does a guy who uses a Speak and Spell to communicate not only date, and get married, but manage to cheat on his wife and leave her for the nurse?!
Anyway, despite that, he's brilliant and so accomplished. Most people don't accomplish half of what he has in their lifetime and he has done it with such a severe disability. Here's hoping he gets well.
