Elevated Pulse

According to the Washington Post financier, R. Allen Stanford was taken to the hospital with an "elevated pulse" just before he was to go before a judge for a hearing. You guessed it, the hearing is postponed indefinitely. Now MY pulse is elevated. I'd be willing to bet that there's not a soul on this planet whose pulse wouldn't be elevated at the prospect of going to court for whatever reason. Never underestimate the power of an expensive lawyer!
