IPODS And Pacemakers - A Deadly Combo
 
iPods can cause cardiac implantable pacemakers to malfunction by interfering with the electromagnetic equipment monitoring the heart, according to a study presented by a 17-year-old high school student to a meeting of heart specialists on Thursday.

If I have a heart attack I'll just sue the guy/messageboard that gave me the iPod.

Pocahontas 05-11-2007 09:21 AM

How did you win that exactly? I was later coming on the board than most of you.

Or you can sue the manufacturer like everyone else. ;)

I just posted in a particular thread, paid the guy that picked the winner $20, and "randomly" won.

Okay, thanks! When is the next contest so I can "pony up" like Joe did? Maybe SB live can just give away some cold hard cash this time! What do you say admin?:clap: :clap:

AnimeSpirit 05-11-2007 09:52 AM

It would be hard to "pony up" for that, wouldn't it? :D

joepole 05-11-2007 09:53 AM

I think they gave away a few iPods. Like one a month for 3 or 4 months. They had billboards.

No not if I give 20 and receive 300 in return!:)

Okay I have a better suggestion. Why not give away a gift certificate to Imeldas? Everyone wins...us ladies get pretty shoes! Men can give certificates to wives, girlfriends OR mothers if they win!!:clap:

Good Luck! After reviewing my bank account and Apple's, I'm sure you and your lawyer will make the right decision! ;)

Dang Joe, don't be outing me in public like that. I got kid's to feed and stealing all those iPods was hard work! But breaking back in Apple at night to do the custom lazer engraving on their machine was the real tricky part. :)

Pocahontas 05-11-2007 03:23 PM

I think Tbelle, Sheba, Isabella and I are plenty of advertisement for you!!! Don't you think?:lovely: :flirt: :lick::clap:

Isaac-Saxxon 05-11-2007 03:27 PM

Hey Allen I will donate some tomatoes and maybe some venison. You have a great site and I love your column when is the next one due out. Shreveport Times will not be happy to see how well this site is going :clap: :clap: Thank you Allen for letting us join in the forum and I know it will just get better :clap: :clap:

Jest if you like, or maybe you are serious, but I have been thinking about accepting donations. Hey if someone wants to support this community, then maybe I should have my hand out. But my intention is for someone to gain something in return. This is why I hope to find sponsors for groups as well as plain ole advertistors. We are up to ~1000 people a day. Spread the word, pass it on. :) Our ads are affordable compared to some larger news providers.
