What is Philosophy of Science?
Can science discover all truths? Or are there truths beyond science? What is science? A process? A way of thinking?

Me: “I never received a TB shot.”
Nurse: “Which limb received the TB shot?”
Me: “Please stand still. The SoCal Medical Board has authorized me eliminate you by strangulation, you empty-headed twit. It’s ruling is final.”
Adventures to Healthcare!
Me: “Nurse, half a hour ago, I asked for the portable urinal to be emptied and to turn off the overhead light so I can sleep.”
Nurse: “I asked the CNA, who asked their assistant.” Please tell me which of your limbs received TB shot.”
Quick product review: Apple Air Pods, 2nd Generation: Hot and/or Heavy
Results: Neither Hot nor Heavy
Save your time and money. One Air Pod always pops out of an ear, even when I am listening motionlessly. It not surprising that many other users complain about losing them.
Leonard Cohen’s cause of death: He fell. Death was ‘sudden, unexpected, and peaceful.’ - The Washington Post / Bob Saget’s death by falling is similar to Leonard Cohen’s death. https://t.co/m0NxtJjzeP
If you are a Medicare Advantage member, I strongly recommend that you consider subscribing to a PPO plan, not an HMO. Usually the cost difference is not great, and you can choose from local 5- and 4-star facilities, instead of a 1- or 2-star place that Medicare will pick for you.
In November 2020, my oncologist, who is uncomfortable with the subject of death, had his nurse practitioner inform me that I had 8 to 12 months to live. I don’t worry about it. I can honestly say my life is good. #death#dying
Hee hee. I have a new roommate here at the nursing home: an elderly man, and he’s a runner. He’s constantly getting out of bed and trying to wander off. The nurses keep trying corral him back to bed.
He has the right idea. Maybe we’ll make a break from here together.

I have complained that some healthcare workers try to avoid the difficult aspects of their jobs, but it’s also true that many are dedicated to their patients. They clean, wipe asses, etc. They are angels of compassion who work constantly to make their patients more comfortable.
