WTF FTW

Am tempted to make get-well cards for Peter Watts, although I don’t know him well - as a recent comment on his site points out, there are no “Sorry to hear about your necrotizing fasciitis” cards; and there probably should be. The first two designs to surface in my head were 1. A picture of Job shaking his fist at the sky, or 2. A photo of Watts’ face, a “greater than” sign, and a photo of Hugh Laurie as Dr. House.

Good God. What a thing to catch.

It's pretty amazing, that's for sure. As is reading his blog back and seeing the initial photo he posted of the lesion that kicked if off: "Anyone know what this is?" Uh...well, now we do.:(

I must admit, I admire his attitude of "well, I'm an sf writer, so if I had to catch something dangerous, at least it was something amazingly dangerous."

I'd go with Job, that seems to be how his life has been going lately.

Well, there was the Hugo award.
