A Chuck Norris Doppelgänger Was Doing Bizarre Things On ESPN Today
I hate those faux walls they put up behind basketball announcers during booth shots.

Blood Writes: "I Have AIDS, Bitch!" Said The Man Spitting Blood Into The Young Doctor's Eyes And Mouth
My wife works in a hospital in what one would call an "under-served" community. She sees your typical gunshot wounds, stabbings, things shoved up anuses that should not be shoved up anuses.
