Are homeopaths dilutional?
I have zero sympathy because I’m currently getting chemo for breast cancer. AND I had a lumpectomy in December AND I’ll be getting radiation in a few months. Why? Because 1) metastatic cancer is not an easy way to die, 2) although I have upped my water intake due to chemo dehydrating properties I have no illusions abou it “homeopathically” curing me, and 3) I’m not a fucking idiot who thinks good thoughts are better than ACTUAL FUCKING RESEARCH AND PROVEN RESULTS.
Also she wasn’t on my list so I missed out on a lot of points.
My sympathies on your current medical struggles. My mom was a breast cancer survivor for 15 years.
She was the toughest woman I’ve ever met. She had a lumpectomy on a Thursday, checked herself out of the hospital against medical advice the next morning, and had me take her to another hospital so that she could be there when her granddaughter was born C-section. She then went home, took the weekend off, and went back to her nursing job on Monday. She didn’t take chemotherapy. She’d drive herself over to the hospital on her lunch break, get her radiation treatment, then go back to work.
Sorry for the hijack, but your post made me think about that.
You got this.
All top five before Lewis all had her so their positions did not change.
Mona Lott had Lewis but spelled the name wrong,so they are in this list.

Is the Celebrity Life Pool game still active, I had Brian Wilson on the list as well, I guess I’m losing points on that one.
Yes, got it.
Yoo-hoo! Me too.
I’m Stage 4 endometrial cancer. 12 rounds of chemo, 10 radiation treatments, a total hysterectomy - everything even vaguely reproductive got yanked - and just passed 2 years post-chemo with excellent numbers.
Oh, and I’ve been working full time. Chemo doesn’t have to take over your life.
There is a thread for you here: A thread for all the cancer survivors - Miscellaneous and Personal Stuff I Must Share - Straight Dope Message Board
Alright, check your lists to see if you have Ananda Lewis, spelled correctly or not. I think in December I’m going to remind folks to double check spellings. I am so glad Moamar Qaddafi is dead. When his name was Romaized I’d get about a dozen ways to spell it. 
This cracks me up! 
Bin Laden was okay, I guess.
News reports say Iran’s Revolutionary Guards HQs are being bombed. This could be a boondoggle for me, assuming the big shots are dumb enough to stand around in obvious targets.
No sooner than I speak, I score.
I have that T-Shirt. My partner got that for me early on in our relationship. She and I have followed xkcd from almost the beginning.
Maybe not that much of a celebrity, but enough to warrant mention on Hollywood Reporter, actor Beans Morrocco, who did a lot of stuff, mostly as that one guy over there, came a little over a week shy of 9 points.
As do I. It’s one of my favorite shirts.
I scored again. General Amir Ali Hajizadeh has been killed. He was the head of Iran’s Revolutionary Guards Air Force.
You better add some folks to your Christmas Card list!
