S.O.S. is GREAT! Yum!

It's not all the fault of the insurance companies though. When I was in the military (a version of socialized medicine), some of the dependent wives were VERY PROUD of how thick her medical record was (with no real medical problems.) It made me sad and a bit annoyed to hear them brag about it.

I don't know if he's playing this season. Maybe he's taking the shortstop position. I don't give a darn is broken. But back to the movie - I WANNA GO! I WANNA GO! It sounds so cute and funny and happy

BEWARE THE IDES OF MARCH (cuz you'll just keep getting older with each one.

And tell her "thanks for all that pushing!" (unless it was a c-section)

Sowwy, it was an accident. It's ok, Lisa. Sorry it was an accident. Thought you would have wanted to do that on purpose

Happy Birthday! I hope that this coming year brings you happiness and joy! May you have LOTS of cool adventures to tell around the bonfire.

OHHHH! Good point. If this bus were on a dropzone, and there was that much pussy on it... you would have to count all the legs of the guys trying to get INTO said bus.

I was actually thinking that too. I was expecting a "What has four legs in spring, two legs in summer and three legs in fall" sort of riddle.

When I was in South Dakota, my little sister (Big Brother/Big Sisters) was learning Lakota and she would tell me about the those classes. Now... as you said, there is a difference between taking one class in school and knowing the language. From the prespective that she gave me though, the language was being stressed. (which I thought was a good thing)

I give it to you nice and easy (as it is a holiday....) and you beg against future "set ups" So... you like working for it.

Check your catechism to see if a BJ counts as "eating meat." That TRUE!!! I should go ask the priest.

THAT was VERY AMUSING!!! I laughed out loud in my office and was half tempted to call others in to watch it... but they would just look at me sadly and shake their head.... But I laughed

Actually one of my best friends is a linguist who has made great efforts to try to keep the Hocak language alive in Wisconsin. She worked with the tribe for several years building a language program. And the Lakota language is far from dead - at least in the Black Hills.

Ah, your Mom ran down the list of names until she got to the right one too, huh? I should just be glad that HE doesn't run down the list of names.

So... is it the 14th or the 20th? Cuz if it's today... steak and fridays in lent?! Would it just have to be BJ day?

I've been called my hubands exwifes name in the past. That didn't go over too well. (but growing up, I was "Susan/Chris/Karen.... YOU!" so.... it's all good)

With that "learn English" statement, I would add a few caveats. 1. When US citizens travel abroad, they should make an effort to learn the language for the countries that they might be visiting. 2. When someone who is not US born lives here and TRIES to learn English, that attempt should not be ridiculed or mocked because of their vocabulary. Both situations I've seen far too often

What? you don't like multiple threads about the same topic being started?? The answer would be NO. Isn't it obvious. He's a Warner Bros. type. So the answer should be "Eb-dee eb-dee eb-dee ebdee- That's ALL FOLKS!"

Is it too late to add to the list?

I believe they should know both! without such knowledge they should not be practicing and/or the system is too complex. Especially in the US system where yoou have rediculous over the top litigation claims to worry about. (well maybe not you personally, they are good for your profession) Is that your prediction.

(well maybe not you personally, they are good for your profession) Is that your prediction. OK... which of these plans should I know? There are 330 on the list. Should I only learn the Missouri ones. That is still 11 seperate companies. Each with probably at least 3 different types of policies (HMO, PPO and standard). And within each of those policies there are different deductibles and different levels of coverage. That's why I have office staff. They call the insurance to clarify coverage for the patient. But.... what about patient responsibility? As a customer, you decide what parts you like and which ones you don't want/need. You choose high deductible for low monthly or limited access with an HMO. But... as the customer, YOU decide what works best for your budget. Is it confusing? HELL YES. I think I've already mentioned that. But.... trust me, your system is a lot more complicated than you give it credit for. You just don't want to learn about it so therefore it's "easy." If there's a two tiered system.... it's complicated. Is it easier than the US system? Probably. But by switching our system to socialized won't make it easy. Medicare is our version of socialized medicine and that has different plans and supplemental coverage options and all kinds of twists. Personally... I would rather that my OB/Gyn know more about OB/Gyn than about being an insurance salesmam/woman.

Without getting personal and strayin away from the subjecy how about poor old Akarunaway? Poor ole akarunway is "Leaving for Las Vegas" I wanna see how many casinos I can get kicked out of. The record now stands at 1 casino, 2 states, 1 country, 1 dz, many bars,. I'm gonna do my best to better it. In the meantime I'll just keep sewing myself up although the insurance is current. Til I tell my boss to go fuck himself in the morning. OK.... Rhys... care to comment on this?

gimme me a minute to pull some info together for you. I'll send you a LONG note soon.
