TDO Drama

Mike Allen at the Roanoke Times is reporting that Mr. Magoo Marcus McClung can't find either my TDO or my IC.

He can't find the IC because it doesn't exist.

But he can't find the TDO???

I got my medical records today.

Trivia: Leila Bradshaw (school counselor) signed the Petition to TDO. Daphne Blanton's name is on the TDO. No wonder "they can't find it." LOL!

Best line from my medical records:

"Mental Status Exam: The patient is alert and oriented x4, friendly and cooperative with interviewer, maintaining fair eye contact throughout. Patient's speech is regular rate, rhythm, and tone. Thought process appears to be logical and coherent. The patient's thought content was without suicidal or homicidal ideation, plan or intent. The patient denies any auditory or visual hallucinations. The patient states his mood as "open", "really all right ", with affect [sic:
effect] being congruent and full. Attention and concentration not explicitly tested. Insight and judgment appears to be grossly intact."

Stuff that in your pipe and smoke it, Bristol Herald Courier!

Affect ("scientific term used to describe a subject's externally displayed mood.") was almost certainly intentional:
