It's truly painful to hear commercials or TV anchors spew their **** any more, it really is. Sensationalized guesswork, at best. Downright lies at worst. Pass. definition (design?), 50% of the voters in both wings of our political party are indeed that ****ing ignorant. Do you think the percentage is really that low? sigh /cynicism -- "When the people fear their government, there is tyranny; when the government fears the people, there is liberty." - Thomas Jefferson |

If that's the case, I feel really sorry for you, Steve. I still have a TV set, but I only show movies on it. No paid TV feed for 5+ years now, thank Crom. -- "When the people fear their government, there is tyranny; when the government fears the people, there is liberty." - Thomas Jefferson |

And sometimes a couple marries because one of the partners needs health insurance that's unobtainable outside marriage. Which says loads about the state of health insurance. And so it begins... :-) Of course. There is a young couple who in all likelihood eventually will marry. One has medical insurance, the other doesn't or is about to lose it. Should they marry now or later? Or any of similar situations. Such as a couple of seniors. One with, one without (but with medical needs). -- Best regards Han email address is invalid |
