This is (sadly) hilarious, but it may not be too far away from becoming reality with the way our personal information is being stored by Big Government, especially regarding socialized medicine and digitizing medical records. Click the link, turn up the volume and check out:
I was on Facebook, as I am just about everyday, and they have a way of suggesting a friend you should invite. I noticed a name came up, and it really caught my attention.(it usually is someone that one of your friends has listed as a friend) This time it was very different. It was a man that I had communicated with over 5 years ago as a friend. He and I were friends, and it had possibilities of heading in a romantic direction, but he met someone that he just loved and adored with all his heart.… Continue
I first saw the Lady above emerging from a mist as an ethereal figure walking along a broken road littered with broken dreams and broken promises. She walked alone with her shoulders back and her head high, proud, steady, but wounded. Occasionally a tear would slip down her cheek and drop to the road below raising a small plume of dust.. She stepped steadily forward, ignoring the stiff wind in her face, refusing to buckle to the disappointments life… Continue
Good manners,what are good manners? Saying Thank You-No Thank You-Please-Your Welcome- Opening a door-Letting someone get infront of you in a store line.
When someone is talking you listen. Being kind to one another, not calling each other names, not trying to make some one feel less than you . What are good manners?
I started seeing a new psychiatrist a few weeks ago. I like him a lot. He's a fourth-year resident in psychiatry, affiliated with St. Elizabeths Hospital in Washington, DC.
Dr. Jama was a clinical research fellow in the lab of Todd Gould, MD, at the University of Maryland Medical School. You can reach Dr. Gould at 410-706-5585 or email him at tgould@psych.umaryland.edu
Dr. Gould's lab uses molecular, cellular, and behavioral approaches to study the pharmacology of… Continue
What do the two have in common? Not a darn thing. Especially when the redneck (me) is trying to keep the armadillo from digging up her flower gardens. I swear, I've been nice. I've been patient. Give the critter his/her space. Its' one of God's creatures. But this critter is getting out of hand. This morning I went out to get the paper, took four steps and braked sharply. My sidewalk was cover with a mound of dirt and the flower bed to the left of the sidewalk had a big crater dug in… Continue
Several days ago I wrote: "Spiders have been building the same type of spider webs for the last two million years. Republicans remind me of spiders. They don't evolve. And they oppose anybody who proposes that society evolve and improve."
To which a critic replied: "And, they (spiders) have also been around for the last two million years according to your quote here. Sounds like they know how to survive!"
My response? Life should be about more than just survival. Mankind… Continue
Thank-you, Fox News. Thank you for reporting the news other networks ignore. Thanks for not condescending to the great unwashed by informing us how we should think on a given subject.
Thank-you for not adopting the patronizing, elitist attitudes that have become de rigueur on most other networks. Thank-you for recognizing that Americans have the right to information from both sides of the aisle and are fully capable of making up their own minds on issues, given enough… Continue
I could listen to this guy all day and night. Perhaps we all need a bit of perspective. Of course this is not/nothing for everybody, just the chosen ones.… Continue

To be sure, no group is doing well under our network of private insurers, which is more holes than net. But women fare particularly badly in terms of health, being more likely than men to leave a prescription unfilled; forgo seeing a needed specialist; and skip a medical test, treatment or follow-up. Financially, women are… Continue
I am not suggesting that you donate to the League of American Voters, but simply read that ABC has refused to run and ad that opposed Obama Care. What about free speech in this country?
This is a well known Conservative organization, but don’t they have the right to advertise as others? Send ABC and email and let them know how you feel. Politics may have been this way for a long time, but it seems to me it is reaching an unparalleled level of ugliness and… Continue
The longer the Democrats control Congress, the more Orwellian the language and the more sinister the methods adopted by the Obama Administration and its allies. While President Obama and his officials depict the elderly resisting the federal government's program of "death panels,” Health and Human Services (HHS) and Special Forces assassination squads are at work in nursing homes, seeking to eliminate AARP leaders and other opponents of the Obama Administration's plan to exterminate every… Continue
Over the last year I have lost over 55 lbs. I silently went about making small changes in my life that over time had a major affect. I say silently because I didn't declare out loud to anyone that I was going on the South Beach diet or joining Jenny Craig. I made a small decision to not be fat anymore. I would be "hot" by 50. I will be 50 next February and I think I'm MORE than on track.
Recently my mother asked me how I was doing on my weight loss. Honestly, I barely think about it in… Continue
This afternoon I went to my neighborhood library, the Cleveland Neighborhood library, in Washington, DC. Brian, the head librarian. was wearing a soccer shirt. I thought it was unprofessional for a supervisory employee of the DC government to be dressed so casually. Then I overheard him say he wasn't on duty today. He just came in to do some paperwork. Such dedication!
Then I overheard Brian say to a patron, "You know I'm leaving, don't you?" At least that's what I think I heard. Is… Continue
Franz Kafka's father, Hermann Kafka, had escaped a poor Jewish upbringing in the town of Wossek, about fifty miles southwest of Prague, and had made a name for himself with his successful store. He had been thoroughly assimilated, registering as a Czech national and giving his children German, not Jewish names, and looked askance at his son's fascination with what he considered "backward" and something to be discarded without a second thought. Franz brings this up for a lengthy discussion in… Continue
