"Shortly before his execution, Evans was featured in an After School Special called "Dead Wrong" in which he shared his life story with young people and pleaded for them not to make the mistakes he did that led to the electric chair.

Evans's accomplice, Wayne Ritter, was electrocuted on August 28, 1987"

This is how naive I am. I didn't know until yesterday that this insane "enrolment period" is a yearly event. We just got a bunch of Blue Cross cards in the mail with a letter saying because we didn't pick (all the phone calls I won't answer) they picked for us...Hopefully they thought enough to pick the most unaffordable plan that covers the least.

 I want to go back to the system where you just write a check to  Marcus Welby MD - no insurance companies, no lawyers, no pharmaceutical reps....just his helpful nurse Consuelo and his assistant that guy that married Barbara Striesand for her money. Wasn't that more efficient?

The last time a doctor came to my house was 1969.

I always wanted to go down to Florida during a hurricane.

You're welcomed to come stay at the house and watch it while I take off.  ;D

Medicare announces price cuts for 15 prescription drugs, including Ozempic

The lower prices stem from the Medicare negotiation program created under the Biden administration's Inflation Reduction Act.

More "right wing extremists" , huh?

What a joke that that bald headed freak Mark Kelly accusing Trump of inciting violence. Trump supporters don't loot pharmacies, shoot Christians and Jews, assault cops, topple statues or shoot up elementary schools because their parents don't approve of their 'furry' lifestyle.

Both national guardsmen who were shot have passed away. They belonged to the West Virginia national guard.

Now they're saying they are in critical condition.

I am watching a wall of blizzard-ness about a hundred yards away and closing. I should have gone to the reefer store.

It is actually snowing here.  Not much at all but it is snow.   Last I heard, none was predicted.
