The 1,017 page America's Affordable Health Choices Act of 2009 (a.k.a H.R. 3200, a.k.a. Obamacare) has become the latest hot-button topic in America. The bill was introduced on July 14, 2009, and luckily that ignominious gang of geezers couldn’t shove their two reams of bullshit up our collective unlubed ass before their August recess. Yep, [...]
Jesus fucking Christ! When will this medical joy ride end? It’s truly amazing to me that a simple blood test for cholesterol can lead to months of doctor visits, there doesn’t seem to be an end in sight. We surveyed three so-called doctors and asked, “How many needles have you jammed into Jim’s arms in [...]
It wasn’t like any other day. I worked from home Thursday — starting around 7 in the morning until a little before noon — because my afternoon would be consumed by an affair with another woman… maybe two if I was lucky. The anticipation of the day made it difficult to concentrate, but I did [...]
We have a wellness program where I work. I don’t normally participate in such tomfoolery for several reasons, the first of which is I don’t like doctors and their holier-than-thou attitudes. They’re always asking you questions you’d rather not answer, and they appear to have a perverted predisposition to sticking things in, on, or up [...]
…and another day closer to death. Pink Floyd lyrics aside, it’s that time of year for the sickness to befall upon me and make my life hell. In the fall, I went to the doctor and got an influenza vaccine. Apparently I fall into the high-risk (or maybe elderly) category for candidates that should get [...]
I’m a little late with this, but better late than never, eh? On Thursday, July 3, I was supposed to work from home, but didn’t. I went to the doctor about my knee then spend the rest of the day with ice and heat on it. More on that later. On Friday, I drove around [...]
Well, here we go again. Every winter since 2002, I’ve been contracting some evil breath-stealing, snot-producing bug that slams my ass to the floor harder than Triple H in a title match. I’ve talked about over, and over, and over again. Before I go any further, don’t get the wrong idea. I don't get my [...]
I’m sitting at work yesterday, trying to catch up on my work between phone calls, and I get an email from Die-Tech: “I need a new blog from you please, my life has dulled in the wake of no new blog from you in 14 days!“ At least he asked politely. I should apologize for [...]
Well, it’s officially 2005. Let’s hope it’s better than 2004 was. Two thousand and four started out okay. Galaxynet had just finished building its new Internet Cafe, and celebrated by having an Open House with the local Chamber of Commerce. By the beginning of 2004, I had been working for Galaxynet for nearly 7 years. [...]
