Its been awhile...how about some Death Panels?

Well its been over a month since I last posted and of course a lot has been going on.  I may discuss some of it at a future point, but for now I will share with you some interesting tweets from former The Office producer and now show-runner for Parks and Recreation, the one and only Michael Schur (aka KenTremendous on the Twitter machine).  The following were sent out just last week and made me laugh at how these supposed "death panels" might function if they actually existed. (NOTE: I have reordered them so they are in chronological order as opposed to reverse chronological order)
Had to go in front of the Death Panel today. Yikes. They are *tough.* I get to live, but they took two fingers and a foot.

The Death Panel offices are actually quite nice. Also, you know who was on my death panel? My 3rd grade teacher. Small world.

A surprising thing about the Death Panel: idea of pulling the plug on my grandma never came up. I thought that'd be their first move.

After you go in front of the Death Panel, they give you OJ and cookies, like after you give blood. It's a nice gesture.

FYI: the Death Panel does not validate, and the parking is insanely expensive. $30! And I was only in there for sixteen hours!

During my Death Panel hearing, one of the people on the Death Panel was called in front of another Death Panel, and murdered. Ironic.

Met a cute girl in the Death Panel waiting room, and we hit it off and made plans to meet up after, but her Death Panel killed her. Sucks.

Death Panel members rush into the Death Panel Chamber to cool music and laser light show, like the Bulls of the mid-90's. Very impressive.
Not one Hispanic on my Death Panel. When are we going to have Death Panels that look like America?!
One guy on my Death Panel thought it was funny to talk like Darth Vader the whole time. I was like, dude, I get it, you're on a Death Panel.
You're not going to believe this. I just got called back into my Death Panel. Ugh. I JUST ordered lunch.
I guess there was some issue with the Talent Portion. So now I have to put the outfit back on, go back in, and sing "Right Round" AGAIN.
Re-do of Talent Portion went okay. They made me take the Knowledge Test AND the Driving Test again, and I hit 2 cones and now I have to die.
Appealing my Death Panel Death Sentence on grounds of prejudice. Turns out one of the women on my Death Panel LOVES Bill Plaschke.

My lawyer thinks I have a strong case. Unfortunately, lawyer's Death Panel Hearing just happened and it went badly and he's dead.
Death Panel Death Sentence overruled! Thanks for all the support, you guys. Good luck in your Death Panels. Tip: show some leg. Can't hurt.
Good times.  Health care reform...FTW!
