Sue a doctor, BUT not your mechanic?

A co-worker and I were talking about medical insurance the other day and he made a very good point in my opinion.
People who want to sue a doctor for WORKING ON A HUMAN body and possibly misdiagnosing something should be thinking about how many times their mechanic misdiagnosed problems with their automobile.
I never thought about it that way before. A human body is so complex from one to the next, yet many automobiles are the same in many ways. Wouldn't it make sense that a doctor could possibly misdiagnose while working on something as complex as the human body.
With the education doctors have, compared to the education of a mechanic, you'd think you should be able to sue your mechanic (since autos are less complex) when you have to return there for multiple parts or repairs that don't seem to fix the problem you went in there with.
Doctors go through more schooling and constant training, yet they are targeted right away when there is an issue with their performance. This is disregarding any malicious intent by the doctor of (which may be more likely in a shifty mechanic) course.
What do you think?

Churches and the good old exorcism

I like to watch "A Haunting" on the Discovery Channel when I have time. One thing that I always found interesting is that when there is a demonic spirit bothering a family, a church will have no problem telling them they have some demons, but have a HUGE problem helping them with it.

What I have noticed in a couple of shows most recently was the first thing the priest asks is if they are a member of the church. WTF? Should this matter? You telling me that if I was a member (and I think they mean "paying" member) I would get help faster? I think that is such a crock. Or, you have the priest trying to tell you it's nothing, because there is this underlying feeling that he doesn't want anyone else in the church to hear about it and freak everyone out.

I just don't think that they should even question what religion you are. If you go to any church for help, they should be willing. Right? Am I over the line on this one? I guess I always thought one safe place I could get help was a church, but now I am thinking quite differently about it.

Las Vegas shelter kills 1,000 dogs, cats

Don't you think the management in charge at this place would be able to see this is happening? I have soft spot for any animal and I just can't imagine not taking care of one's problems so long that 1,000 others suffer from it. When you are in charge of this many there should be some standard policies and procedures in place. At least then, if one person isn't following the procedure, they can be canned and it may save the life of other animals.

On a side note, I think that these shelters are over populated because there are too many people that take a pet in and don't stick around to be responsible for the pets care. The next step is taking it to a shelter for someone else to take care off it. These people should not be allowed to ever adopt again. One time I can understand if it slips through the cracks, but if this person is bringing pets in all the time cause they "can't" (or don't) want to take care of them, they should be blacklisted. My opinion of course. And to have your pet spayed or neutered will help keep the population under control.

Poor Anna Nicole

Is anyone else not feeling bad about this situation? I have a hard time feeling sorry for people in this situation since it was themselves that got them there. I am a firm believer that your create your own life and what you say and do directly effect the outcome. If you are going to be hopped up on drugs and bounce from husband to husband, apparently "possibly" having a child with all of them, then too bad for you. Listening to her mother talk it almost seems like she isn't surprised one bit. Read the story and I'll let you decide.

Guys that have girls, but still look for others

I am sitting here listening to a guy, who has a girl, talk about how many "bitches" emailed him today. What is he doing? Why is he with someone that, which seems obvious, he doesn't want to be with? Everyday he goes into his email and excitedly reads through them one by one. Talking about how all these hot "bitches" want to be with him, but are from another country. YEP! He is getting scammed and thinks all these woman want to be with HIM! What a moron! He will stay in contact with them, whether it's one day or month, until the woman asks for money to get into the country. I just sit here and nod my head and think, what an idiot, I thought everyone in the world knew about those scams. It also makes me think that he may have sent money once already and that is why the communication stops at the money part. Who knows, all it does is add to my daily entertainment. I have to be at work anyways, why not enjoy a little bit of it?
