OK, tng. That was my little off-topic rant. I imagine you've been following the cryptic #stateofthelil reports, so you know that things are pretty dandy in some realms.

Anyone ever have minor surgery (anaesthesia) cancelled because they had a cold? I need to know. pm me.

Not minor surgery, general anaesthesia, but it had it pushed back because of a cold :( The fuckers shaved my head before deciding!

Yes, they're pretty great. In fact, I just re-listened to "Cry Me a River," from your post.

Standard procedure to postpone out-patient surgery due to patient illness including flu, colds, viral infections, warts etc. Also standard if the patient has allergies kick in due to environmental issues (pollen, etc).
