Arrested Development - Ex-Pats Mexico

Aaahhh... those were the good ole days

I guess we can throw whatever subtle or overt brickbats at the health insuranced industry we want to, but this fact remains for many people:

The health insurance industry will let you buy a policy in the same spirit as a bank will lend you money: First, you must prove that you are in such sound condition that you don't need it. Otherwise, your application will be turned down. Which leaves you where, health insurance-wise? Uninsured.
Been there, had that happen. Yes, some changes are way overdue.

The real "death panels" are the insurance companies who won't cover the sick or even the formerly sick but presently healthy. Hevvin forbid they might have to actually pay out for medical care.

Personally, I don't mind Shush's vast postings, complete with links. Some of this stuff is very interesting, and I'd never think to look it up. Some of it is.......in outer limits, for sure. But it's not like a case of typhoid, so why not just ignore what doesn't interest you.

Quoting Sparks:


Far from it as I had the day off and I haven't let the early snow here in Albuquerque yesterday and today bother me. Way too early and I had to break our "rule" that one wears shorts at least until Nov. 1. Just giving SHUSH a hard time and attempting to keep her posts accurate or at the very least close to it.

Rum & Coke

A priest was seated next to a Newfie on a flight to St. John's .
After the plane was airborne, drink orders were taken.

The Newfie asked for Rum & Coke, which was brought and placed before him.

The flight attendant then asked the priest if he would like a drink.

He replied in disgust..... "I'd rather be savagely raped by a dozen whores than let liquor touch my lips."

The Newfie then handed his drink back to the attendant and said, "Me too, I didn't know we had a choice."

Sorry... still stuck on the Rum Jokes
