Honestly, this is the first time I've heard of her, or her condition. I suppose if she could fart, she'd be considered multi-talented. Poor girl. They think they may know what's causing her hiccups.
"We went to the media for one reason only, but now I just feel like she is being used," Jennifer's stepfather, Chris Robidoux said about reaching out for help.
"She's not for sale. She's a human being."
While Jennifer has enjoyed being a celebrity, she's tired. The hiccups hurt.
When she got back Monday, the first thing she said she wanted to do was visit her friend, Ashley, whom "I haven't seen in a million years."
During her second Today appearance Monday, Jennifer thanked everyone who suggested remedies, even though none worked.
Doctors in St. Petersburg and New York may have identified a couple of physical causes for the spasms, her mother said. Jennifer recently had strep throat, and an MRI showed a vertebra compression.
For now, the family is considering chiropractic and acupuncture treatments.
Times researchers Caryn Baird and Cathy Wos contributed to this report.
Wow. This is a really facinating story. Much more facinating than soldiers living in squalor at the Walter Reed Army Medical Center.

Didn't Bush say he wanted to cut funding for Veteran's Benefits to pay down the deficit? Hasn't there been a 24-hour whine feast concerning Jack Murtha's senility and his hatred of our troops?
And yet I haven't seen a single conservative pundit touching this hot potatoe. Hmmm....

Zifnab, lemme explain something to you. Supporting the troops isn't like supporting any other group. For example, if you support the Republican party, you might give money to the Republican party, or try to ensure that seriously injured Republicans aren't tossed into moldy, rat-infested tenements or out on the street. The troops, on the other hand, already have all the money they could possibly need - $500 billion a year! Everyone knows that all of that money goes straight to the troops; the MSM might tell you that their salaries are actually a lot less than $500,000 a year, but, well, that's the MSM.
No, what the troops need is car ribbons and blog posts.

Kudos on the excellent fart joke, by the way. (Isn't it amazing how if you just remove that sentence, the post seems almost like it was written by a normal human being?)
Personally, though, I think she's hiccuping because of her clit! LOL, clit, ha ha!

scar, quit calling LOL a clit! You asshole. He can't help it, he was born that way.

"the MSM might tell you that their salaries are actually a lot less than $500,000 a year, but, well, that's the MSM."
Wait, the MSM? Those are the guys who spend all day talking about Anna Nicole Smith, right?
Also, I'm still waiting for the Republican-American cacaus to come up with a plan that gets our troops Frag Kit 5s for their Hummers and sees they have suitable downtime to recoup from combat duty. Murtha had an idea, but he's senile so we're not allowed to listen to it.
Maybe if we spent some more money on the Star Wars Missle Defense Program to protect us from Iranian ICBMs, our soldiers would rally to the fight. Or we could pass a non-binding resolution in support of the troops rather than a non-binding resolution that encourages Bush to bring the troops home to that horrible, horrible Walter Reed Army Medical Center.
Frankly, if Nancy Pelosi wasn't Speaker, I don't think we would be in this mess to begin with.

Third picture's caption: "BLAZED."
Maybe the pot is to blame?

May be it's possible to stop the hic... by undertaking a good hypnotism session?
It's just an idea... I think worth to try.
Anyway succes in solving this problem.
