(NaturalNews) 2009 has been a crazy year for health and medicine. It was the year that Congress rammed through a mandatory health “reform” bill that violates the U.S. Constitution in forcing all Americans to buy government-mandated products and services from greedy corporations. Although it hasn’t been signed into law yet, the very fact that it has been passed by both the House and the Senate is alarming: America is just one signature away from becoming a medical dictatorship.But that’s not the only big health news that happened in 2009. In all, 2009 was a year of corruption, scientific fraud and health freedom oppression.

“Your hair looks pretty tonight,” dad said rubbing the back of my head as we sat on my couch. “You have hair just like my father’s.” “Why did you do that today about the orange drink?” I asked, diverting my father’s affections. “You carry it too far sometimes. You and mom can both go overboard. I have too few comforts left.” “I’m sorry,” my father replied kindly. “We just don’t want you to go back to the way you were. Do you realize how far you’ve come? You are like a different person – a completely different person. You are the son I lost years ago.” I sat quietly watching The Weather Channel waiting on my medications to take effect. Dad was very, very late tonight and it was almost midnight. I…

Deep in Dwight Garner's December 30, 2009 celebration of the film "The Big Lebowski" appeared the following:
•••••••••••••••••••••••••
Reading “The Year’s Work in Lebowski Studies,” it’s hard not to recall some of the profound and not-so-goofy things the novelist Umberto Eco had to say about cult movies in his 1984 essay “ ‘Casablanca’: Cult Movies and Intertextual Collage.”

I was driving around the neighborhood at 7:00am looking at town homes and apartment complexes, working myself into a blubbering mess.I decided that a few beers would make the pain go away and purchased a six pack from a grocery store. I was down to beer number 5 when I was pulled over for stopping in the middle of the street, trying to figure out where I was. So, long story short . . .the officer immediately smelled the beer.
