Yeah, there was some extra obnoxious update of Whamaggeddon last year that ltc was obsessed with.
I, for one, wasn't looking forward to starting my day with a slaughter. Which, really, just goes to show how much I've grown

Our wings are not tired
Healthcare is pretty infuriating from the employer side as well. I hate being in the position where I have to be the middleman on things. Every year it's a list of new plans, and increases in cost that far outpace cost of living, then the horrible game of can the business absorb this cost again this year? I currently pay 100% of healthcare for my employees, and work like hell to be able to keep doing it, but the costs just go up and up at a rate that I can't always keep pace with on increasing billing rates to my clients.
I dream of single payer where I'm not doing it. It's is total insanity that it's part of what an employer needs to do.

Wow! Wow! Wow! {{{{{{{my beloved Buffistas! }}}}}} The universe needs to fuck right off.
and if this news from Amyth and TopicCindy! doesn't convince people how important getting the health care problems straightened out, I don't know what does!

On a much much lighter note: should I go dancing tonight?
Pro: it's dancing; it's a convention so there will be lots of people there from out of town
Con: it's down near the airport and I'd have to pay $20 to get in plus parking; I might end up sitting watching more than dancing; it doesn't start until 9pm.

Go dancing! I say as I sit on my couch watching TV.

Yeah, I think the big risk is more the "doesn't start until 9pm" part, really!

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
That was my takeaway. These days if it doesn't start until 9pm it better take an hour or less for me.

You've got friends to have good times with. When you need to share the trauma of a badly-written book with someone, that's when you go to family.
