Leading Off
1. The Dallas VA hospital has closed its psychiatric unit after a recent suicide, the fourth this year. This despite that the hospital has spent a quarter of a million dollars the past six months to lessen the risks of suicide, including modifying doorknobs, light fixtures, shower curtains, and other plumbing items.
2. Herschel Walker said on Nightline last night that he has a form of multiple personality disorder and that he’s nearly taken his own life.
3. I need some good news. It took me 20 minutes of talking to the Internet before I found some. But here it is: Bon Jovi still rocks! Woooo!

Bon Jovi still rocks? I didn’t know “Eric Celeste” was a pen name for a 40-something housewife. Interesting.
When exactly did Bon Jovi, as you say, ever “rock”?
Hmm. Maybe the VA should shut down the entire hospital, because there are all those sick people in there? How about solving the hospital’s problems, rather than making sure patients don’t get needed care?
Clearly, I was being ironic. I mean, what sort of pathetic 40-year-old guy would have “Living on a Prayer” on his iPod workout playlist? I mean … heh heh … c’mon!
The triple threat:
1) Psychaitric Unit
2) Multiple Personality Disorder
3) Bon Jovi still rocks
Hershel Walker. His multi-personalities come just in time for TV face time to promote a book.can we say I NEED DOLLARS?
