Fox reporting death by ‘aspirin overdose’ - sounds like a pretty uncomfortable way to go
http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/article/002542.htm
Treatment depends on the amount of aspirin, the time you swallowed it, and your overall condition when you reach the emergency room. You may receive:
Fluids
Activated charcoal to soak up aspirin in the stomach
Laxative to cause bowel movements that help remove aspirin and charcoal from the body
Other medicines may be given through a vein, including potassium salt and sodium bicarbonate, which helps the body remove aspirin that has already been digested.
If these treatments do not work or the overdose is extremely severe, hemodialysis may be needed to remove aspirin from your blood.
Very rarely, a breathing machine may be needed. But many poisoning experts think this causes more harm than good, so it is only used as a very last resort.
Outlook (Prognosis)
Taking more than 150mg/kg of aspirin can have serious and even deadly results if untreated. For a small adult, that’s roughly equal to taking 20 tablets containing 325mg aspirin. Much lower levels can affect children.
If treatment is delayed or the overdose is large enough, symptoms will continue to get worse. Breathing becomes extremely fast or may stop. Seizures, high fevers, or death may occur.
How well you do depends greatly on how much aspirin your body has absorbed — and how much is flowing through your blood. If you take a large amount of aspirin but come quickly to the emergency room, treatments may help keep your blood levels of aspirin very low. If you do not get to the emergency room fast enough, the level of aspirin in your blood can become dangerously high.
Yeah, it’s a “conspiracy theory” unless it’s proven or in plain sight, then it’s ignored. Sorta like hillary’s “vast right wing conspiracy”.
Mob suicides like this are really we are going to let you choose your own method on how you are going out; but if you don’t want to do it; we will do it for you.
What a fool Rams. Obviously this is Arkenflue. CDC thought they had contained @ Ft Marcy In DC.
On the other hand their may be a modicon of logic in your rant. Our FBI was in real trouble under Louis Free, Our strongest is hanging tight, but the pot is astir.
Thanks Rab
saw Blago on Fox (Huckabee show) today (not sure when Huckabee is taped? maybe Friday for Sat show?) - he dropped names all the way up to naming Reid and Mr. Deadfish himself regarding dealings around the infamous Zero senate seat appointment - stopped just short of mentioning Zero by name.....and seemed ready to say even more but iirc Huck just wasn’t getting it. And now this...hmmmm......
Maybe Blago had better watch HIS back. Could be running a bit scared now, eh? I hope he squawks like a chicken and tells all.

Then there's a scene in one of the Godfather movies along the same lines. A little chat with the consiglieri, and suddenly it makes sense for someone whose strayed too far from "family" values to bleed out in a tub rather than let the Corleones get creative.
At least we can be assured that all of the "news" media will be giving this their full attention (before they spike the story.)
.
Does that make the "lock-box" a box social? One with pork pies and ham sandwiches for all comers?
I would not doubt for one second that a conspiracy was involved, and that is no conspiracy theory.
“Hmmm, for some reason I’m thinking of Erwin Rommel was given the choice of erasing himself or having it done for him” ex.
Bin watching to much History Channel mono.
ER was the top Cav line Officer in the organization that invented armored cavalry, Got himself crosswise of the power structure, failed, paid a price. Sold out in the run up, by not forcing the issue.
Kinda doesn’t feel like this Chicago fella, I don’t think.

I find this so suspcious. When I was a young nurse we had an old man who came in after ingesting 500 aspirin. They had found him in his house hours after taking them. They did all the stuff they’re supposed to. He lived three more days and then died...to die so suddenly after being taken to one hospital with no trauma unit is no excuse if the hospital had an ER. This sounds so like those 3 dead gay guys in Chicago....two of whom were murdered...that just happened to go to Rev. Wright’s church....hmmmmmmm?????
Maybe - the “Chicago way” doesn’t include talking about the powerful and getting away with it...
Ft. Marcy Hospital......aspirin OD.
yeah aspirin OD, thats the ticket.
Nothing to see here...move along.
Blago mentioned Tony Rezko on Huckabee last night...he had better watch his back too. The Chicago "long knives" would not hesitate to strike twice.
No doubt an nObamacide victim.
Overdose in a parking lot at 3:00 am. Hummmmmm

And the Donald Young murder hasn’t been solved either.
