Would falling out of a window be considered a short illness?

It’s not so much the falling that’s the problem.

People are always reported as dying after a short illness, or after a long illness. Why does no one ever die after a medium-length illness?

Tails.

What happened to "h" in CN post?

They would not listen, they did not know how
Perhaps they'll listen now

It went out of fashion after 1998.

People are always reported as dying after a short illness, or after a long illness. Why does no one ever die after a medium-length illness?

And why are deaths reported as *untimely?" Is there such a thing as a "timely" death?

Not enough information.

Which floor?

It is exactly the same about people coming back from death. Either they come back after short time death 

66-year-old resident dead and having her transported to a funeral home, where she woke up "gasping for air." 

Or they claim they are old souls, you never hear someone saying I am a medium-term soul. Death and rebirth is indeed in the tails of time.

From Gamal: "He has chosen whites as his enemies, I guess. Did he become white from that?"

You stated that: Bill Russell once said (I think quoting his father), "Choose your enemies well, because you're going to become just like them."

I wanted to test his statement with an example of himself.

Exactly.

ChatGPT == hulla hoop?

while high jump is being discussed, does Javier Sotomayor still hold the World record of longest white socks?

Thank you <3
William Gibson used it in Neuromancer, and his English has always felt so snobbish to me!

Hmm. He is probably my favorite author, and more for his turn of phrase than the storylines. His language is certainly rich, but I don’t know that I quite get snobbish. I think he may have peaked at “Pattern Recognition”, but at the time he mentioned the eastern seaboard, he was also busy making up cyberspace and the Boston-Atlanta Sprawl.

Just finished watching Season 1 of "The Peripheral" on amazon originals, an adaption of W. Gibson's novel.
Watch The Peripheral - Season 1 | Prime Video (amazon.com)
Definitely worth a watch. Produced by Jonathan Nolan and Lisa Joy, the writers/creators of my fav: Westworld, among other credits.

Watched it too. Quite good.

The Man in The High Castle is good too. I started watching it, but the ongoing possible prelude to WW3 outside of the screen made me stop. I got the sense of schisophrenia PK Dick might have developed in the war-torn, uncertain world (as if who's winning wasn't a matter of armies' military performance but of a swing of your emotions - so you have to keep them under control).

Why don't I sweat? I mean I can go without shower for days and I have no hint of sweat, only délicat odour to eik elds. Thinking of it, maybe going with shower makes people sweat? It's a spate of metal. I know that I do have sweat glands because when I hit the løype hard, I break sweat, or even a pole - they are strong people, by the way. So it's not to avale.

Discuple! I couldn'ts tepe it again Sprakk oberload!
