All's well. Boredom has set in. Hospitals are not very interesting places, as a rule, if one is a patient and not watching the bedlam on television. Which bring me to my next question: Since there is such a dearth of activities available, why can't they at least spring for premium cable? Five channels is supposed to entertain the multitudes of ill people who are just looking to fill some time while they serve some time, but it just isn't enough.
And so we start a new crusade. Premium cable in hospitals! What? Too expensive? Carve some funds out of something redundant, like cat scans, because how many cats need to be scanned anyway? Or free coffee for doctors! Let them buy their own coffee. How about fewer x-rays? Look, if my arm is broken and the splintered shards are poking out of my skin, the doctor had better know what it all means without having to resort to pictures. How about less plants to spruce the place up! I like plants as well as the next person, but let's get real: they're not very entertaining, unless they're the kind that eat things, and those can be tricky to have around. Indeed, I can think of many things that we can eliminate.
A new crusade.
