Organ or organs found for transplant at University of Michigan Hospital. Team flies to Milwaukee to pick it up. After picking up organ or organs, plane crashes into Lake Michigan with organs and doctors aboard. Six missing.

If your thread title is intended as an entry in the "asshole of the year" contest, congratulations -- you're the early leader.
 
Re: A sign you probably weren't meant to live.

Agreed. Change it please.

So you think the person waiting for the transplant is feeling lucky?

It sucks all the way around.
 
Re: A sign you probably weren't meant to live.

Yeah, it does. Probably the reason it doesn't deserve a flip thread title.

Duly noted. It's been changed, in case you weren't looking.

I looked. Thanks. I realize you didn't mean anything but it did read real wrong. This one is spot on. Thanks again.
 
No problem. It was pretty ****tily (is that a word?) worded the first time around. My apologies to the board.
 
Just got the news on the phone. I wrote a story about one of the doctors last year. He doubled as a high school cross country/track coach. He had successful programs in both. He often would leave practice or meets early if he got a call to be part of an organ transplant.

Sad story. I'm sure all were good people, but that one was about as good a person as there could be.

OK, your "AHOTY" candidacy has slipped back into the pack. Good move on the title amendment.

Truly a tragic story -- the transplant air teams perform a really vital service that saves a lot of lives.

The Lake Michigan Triangle people are going to go nuts with this.

I've heard of the Bermuda Triangle, but this one is new to me.

They'll have to stretch the triangle into quite a distended parallelogram to include the location of the crash.

I don't see any mention of this crash on that page, maybe someone deleted it.
