My life.
Part of my highly prestigious position at work is the honorable and highly respected responsibility of cleaning the FUCKING PARKING GARAGES in dozens of hospital buildings.
Kill me now.
I am a damn landcaper. Someone didn't get the memo. But, bills keep coming...and well, money is the ONLY acceptable way of paying them. This is unfortunate. I would like to return to the barter system. "I will trade you one slightly used rocking chair for the crappy satellite service that YOU provide....whenever there isn't a cloud overhead, that is." (btw, I tried that, it didn't work.)
Where was I? Oh yes..parking garages.
I have a question for anyone reading this.
Have YOU ever had to shit so bad that you felt the need to shit down the wall in a public parking garage? I only ask this because I find this at least once a week. Then there is the mystery of WHY they think that Kleenex will IN ANY WAY HELP this situation.
I have news for you, it does not. You are just making a paper mache shit ball for ME to clean up.
Next on the list are the people who like to have sex in the garage. Yeah, I know, it is dark in the corners...there aren't any cameras there...and you don't want your wife to find out. SO, I have a suggestion for you.....STOP LEAVING THE USED CONDOM AND UNDERWEAR BEHIND! I swear, I will pay for the damn testing myself....and i will find you. Now, I am happy thet you are practicing safe sex, and all. Lord knows we don't need another mistress knocking on the front door, you can only buy your high maintenance wife so many facelifts before she gets pissed about "the other women". I am just trying to help you out here Dr. *insert name here*.
You like Mcdonalds? I used to.
Then I found this.
A rat.... dead in a Mcdonalds bag. THAT can't be a good sign. I am just sayin....
and while I am on that subject...why the hell do you people leave your half eaten lunches in the freakin garages???? How about this...why don't you walk your fat ass to the trash can that is 10 feet away, and try to burn off some of the artery clogging sludge that you just ingested..that BTW KILLED A RAT!
geesh.
diapers, tampons, and sanitary pads are NOT decorative! Let me repeat that....NOT DECORATIVE! What the hell is wrong with you? WHO changes a tampon in a parking garage???? Not only do you change it there, but then you find the need to throw it on the ground like a candy wrapper. Now, I understand that litter is litter....but holy hell...A TAMPON???? Yeah, your baby's diaper smells awful.....um....well, I gotta tell you....it is not exactly an air freshener after it has sat in a 100 degree parking garage over the weekend.
ok...this one bewildered me this week.
an entire gallon of spoiled milk.
WHO has THAT riding around in their car???? Please tell me why you have it...and why you felt that the garage was a good place to "drop it off". I only ask this because FOR THE LIFE OF ME, I cannot think like a person who totes around a gallon of milk and then it suddenly occurs to them that MAYBE THAT is the smell eminating from their backseat. Are you retarded???? Don't answer that, because if you are, I will feel bad for calling you retarded...on second thought...no, I won't. You are an asshole...not just retarded.
ok now listen closely...
urine samples are to be left with the nurse in the hospital.
NOT IN A SPRITE BOTTLE OR A 40oz BEER BOTTLE IN THE DAMN GARAGE!!!!
Ok, so your nurse was pretty. Good for you. Does that mean that you have to jerk off all over the handle in the stairwell??? Here is a little known fact for y'all. Goo Gone is the ONLY thing that will take hardened semen off of a painted railing.
just in case you wanted to know.
ok.....so now that you have read all of that....FOCUS!
Someone has to clean up your disgusting messes. No matter where you think it will be "hidden". No matter what you think is just "providing us job security". No matter what you think is just your right or entitlement to be a douche bag....there is someone who hates you cleaning up after your disgusting ass.
Now, did I mention that I get paid more than the average nurse? I also make more than many of the "medical professionals" that leave these messes behind.
So, the next time you look down your nose and chuckle when you do something like that..remember this...I hope pigeon craps on the end of your upturned nose..and I most likely make more money than you.
HA!
did I mention that I am a landscaper? Yeah, exactly what I was thinking. WTF??? and HOW did I end up with THIS mess?
welcome to the blue collar world, folks. We make life civilized for the uncivilized. Enjoy those beautiful flowers and trees...they were planted and nurtured by the same person that is sweeping up your used rubbers.
holy crap.

Back to School Week
It has been peaceful on campus the past few months....I was not sad to see the college kids leave for the summer. The last impression that was left with me before they returned home to their over-indulged lives with Mommy and Daddy was the following....
A "young lady" standing IN THE WAY, as usual, talking on a cell phone to one of her many adoring and lifelong friends <---snicker ....
she was dressed as if she were selling and invitation to observe all that could be seen under the laws of decency.
You know the outfit... shorts that are WAY too short.... a tight babydoll tee shirt with some stupid reference to how cute she thinks she is on it.... two tone hair that just flabbergasts me that they think we don't know that those "highlights" were not made by the sun...but by a chemical squeezed from a tube. Her "muffin top" hanging delicately over her waistband..and the clear bump from a belly ring poking through her overstretched tee. AND OF COURSE... a tramp stamp tattoo in the shape of a flower, sun and moon. No college outfit is complete without the sparkly flip flops that show off thier pudgy toes and "cankles" with toenail polish that says... "hold on here".
Now that you have the visual....and don't forget the over done eye makeup that shows the utter vacancy of thought beneath those tinted contact lenses.....
she only made one statement that I could hear...
ready?
"Yeah like, I went to the party last night, and like... they had booze and drugs and sex and stuff!"
ok.
I wanna know what the "and stuff" was.
I felt like calling her father and telling him to think twice before he writes that next tuition check.
Soooooo, they are back now. Sighhhhhhhhhh
They swarm the campus with their air of stench from the multiple scented products eminating just beneath the pungent odor of the overpriced perfume that carries the name of some no talent "singer" with blonde hair and caps.
And the boys....
omg.... did you shower today, guys? I know that the girls wear enough smelly crap to cover up your scent as soon as the rub all over you... but come on now.... you still have to wash your "stuff" once in a while.
Now, the "young lady" that i just described comes with a name... one that is given by the young men that have conquered them... "cum dumpsters".
Yup.... true.
So a gaggle of these future lawyers and doctors (hahahha) were walking past the hospital and the young man that works for us for the summer said ..... "look, there goes a "cum landfill"!!!"
So, they are moving into their dorms this week. I don't know how they are going to pass their physics classes when they cannot grasp the concept of larger items on the bottom. The vacant expressions and the snotty frustration directed at their WAY TOO OLD parents who are lugging their shit into their dorms...makes me want to smack all of them right upside their heads and ask "what the f*** do you major in???"
My guess is basket weaving 101.
You can see the mating rituals beginning as the lure of the dozens of bars surrounding the campus beckons them like the Pied Piper. Oh, the dreams of youth...
to wake up on a strange floor with your "cutie" tee on the table....your shorts around your ankles....your face resting peacefully on the old smelly carpet stained with the vomit of skanks before you... all the while tasting the sticky sweet drink that carried the "ruffy o desire".
ahhhh, future memories in the making.
and our sons... the future.
no thanks... I'll just die. (Thank you, Jeff Foxworthy)
Because if it is up to a man who cannot pull his pants up, wears clothing that looks like it was worn by the homeless, yet costs $300 dollars an outfit, and had no handle on the English language other than the abbreviations used while texting... to be a man and keep this country running smoothly... (gawd knows "ruffy chick" doesn't stand a chance)...
I fear for the future.
tuition.....$60,000
room and board....$15,000
"grocery money"...(beer and drug money)....$6,000
a credit line at Abercrombie and Fitch.....$25,000
an overall GPA of 2.1, and an uncle in a high power position that will employ him/her combined with the ability to say "my son/daughter is a _____ alumni"...
PRICELESS!

The "Growing" Trend
I had an epiphany this past weekend. For a change, my other half and I went out to dinner and then on to a local dance club/bar.
Now...I am not young anymore. So, I thought that I would feel a bit out of place in there. I was right, but not for the reasons that you are thinking.
I only weigh 120 lbs.
I say "only" because THAT is my perspective.
I entered this club and looked around. Do you know what I saw? It was horrifying.
EVERY female in that club was AT LEAST 50 lbs overweight. I was stunned.
Now, I look around at people all day long...and i have noticed a "growing" trend. (pun intended) People are freakin FAT!
Now I know that isn't "pc" and all....but I don't care.
Let me tell you about my evening. Upon entering the club, I walked up to the bar to buy 2 drinks. (mine was Pepsi..hahaah...so I am sober when making these observations, thank you)
Two gargantuan women approached the bar from my left. I felt like i was on a safari.....or a picnic...not sure which. I say that because one was EASILY 300 lbs, and she was wearing a black and red checkered...um....shirt? I dunno what you would call it...but on her, it looked like a table cloth draped over a picnic table. The other 350lb behemouth was wearing a shiny floral printed shirt that crisscrossed over the fat bags that some may refer to as breasts that HUNG off of the front of her. Good thing she has those too, because it was the ONLY way to tell which side is the front. Her back went straight into her ass...just rolls upon rolls of blubbering fat.
Does all of this sound cruel? Too bad.
These two creatures ordered 3 drinks each. The drinks were full of sweet syrupy goop, and NEITHER of them tipped the bartender. (apparently the change is for the dollar menu at Mcdonalds). The first one had one drink consumed before she got back to her table...that was BTW, 15 feet from the bar. HEAVEN FORBID they walk further than THAT.
The other sow guzzled down two drinks before she was able to cram her fat ass into a chair suitable for a rhino.
They were both wearing some kind of stretchy material capri pants under thier tablecloths.
All I could think was how the hell their feet supported that weight...and why the hell they thought that all of that makeup would help. I mean really....does blush and concealer REALLY hide that fourth chin???? NO!
I thought that this was an isolated incident...gagged...and proceded to the dance floor area. OMG! They were not alone.
I became concerned for two reasons...one being the support system under the floor..and the other was the vision that I had of me being roasted over a spit because they didn't serve food.
So, I learned that it takes somewhere between 20 and 30 small drinks with a lot of syrup to get cattle drunk.
The men who entered this club looked like someone had just stolen their favorite toy. They walked in, looked around....seemed confused...then went to the bar.....lather, rinse, repeat.
The looks of disappointment, confusion, and deperation were both pitiful, and HILARIOUS!
I am SO tired of hearing that "fat" is a disability, and that they have a "thyroid problem". Give me a freakin break. These hogs can make it to the bar...dance( or whatever that was), smear their faces with layers of makeup, and they APPARENTLY are able to make it to the grocery store.
How is that a disability????
There are some clothing styles that should not even EXIST in a size XL or larger.
Let me help you...I will list them
1. ANYTHING containing "Lycra" or "Spandex". FOR THE LOVE OF EVERYTHING UNHOLY....PLEASE spare my delicate retinas with that shit!
2. Anything that crisscrosses in the front OR back and ties in the middle. Holy hell....you aren't hiding ANYTHING by making the "waistline" out of a thin piece of string tied somewhere between rolls one and twelve.
3. NO SEQUINS OR GLITTER! Jesus jumped up f***...I feel like staring in on a chorus of "Saturday night fever" when I see A round shape sparkling under a strobe light.
4. Thongs. enough said.
5. ok ladies...the tattoo that is located just above your ass crack...you know the one...it is refered to as a "tramp stamp". I have to tell you that on your fat ass...it is a "hog banner".....and it isn't going to help in any way shape or form.
6. mini skirts....ESPECIALLY ones made of lightweight material....now listen to me....I don't want to see that...I MEAN IT! When your legs are so fat that the shape from your hips to your feet resembles the shape of an hourglass.....we don't wanna see it. How do your knees even hold together under that kind of pressure? You are also allowing the scent to escape...if you know what I mean.
7. cordouroy. OMG...are you trying to start a fire???? swoosh, swoosh, swoosh.....ugh...like fingernails on a chalkboard (I am changing that saying to "like cordouroy on a fat girl)
8. fishnets. yeah, I know..this one is easy.....SOMEONE CUT HER LOOSE AND THROW HER BACK ALREADY!
9. anything patterned with checkerboard, florals, and stripes....please I don't want to have a picnic, walk through a VAST meadow OR sleep in a tent....ok?
10. spaghetti straps. OK you can't even call them that when they are more like "fat floss"....let me explain....the strap disappears in gthe shoulder fat...UGH...gross.
The sad thing here folks, is that most of these women were in their twenties. How much have they shortened their lives...and how many excuses do we need to make for our irresponsible lifestyles??? You are NOT disabled...you are fat....and disgusting, sloppy, smelly and repulsive.
Yeah, I know..."Oh how mean".
WRONG! If you eat yourself into oblivion, it was your choice...and I will say what I like...just like the fat chick can tell me to eat more because I am too skinny.
Get up off of your fat ass and MOVE! Then try eating less in one day than the Dallas Cowboy football team....maybe then you can breath without sounding like every breath is your last.
We need to stop coddling everyone's damn self esteem...and say it like it is.
We are lazy, fat, and irresponsible.
There are NOT that many "thyroid disorders".
sorry...not buying it.
eat less....move your ass....and the LAST thing you need is a license plate that allows you to park CLOSER to the damn grocery store...if it were up to me, you would have to walk from home.

The "In Memory of....." stickers that cover the rear windshield.
Are you serious?
What the hell is "in memory of"? THE CAR???? um....ridiculous...sorry but a 1989 Ford Bronco is not a fitting memorial. It probably would have been cheaper to bury them in the car than to buy that idiotic sticker. Be serious people...do you need to let the entire world know that someone you love died? Hey, it happens to all of us....and you know what else I noticed?
These stickers always show the birth and death date...and they are always young...usually in their 20s. OK. THAT is the definition of ATTENTION WHORE!!!!
First of all, I DO NOT feel bad for you...I feel bad because a kid is dead....and his/her lasting mark is on your stupid car.
Second of all, if you feel the need to have your car be a mobile mourning place....buy a damn Hearse.
Thirdly....are you trying to depress people? These damn things read like a headstone...RIP...loving brother blah blah....
Why do people dwell in death with ABSOLUTELY no purpose in it? I can see keeping a memory..and sharing it because it can change someone's life....but a damn sticker that reads like a headstone?????
Get a grip.

What can I say?
I am so damn angry
angry at today
scared by tomorrow
Why does this have to happen?
Why YOU?
I wonder why the god
that belongs to all others
doesn't step in
and bring one to his side
by sparing you.
But then why would he?
if he even is
he would listen to me?
I doubt it.
So anger stirs for the hopeful
resentment for those who will not know
and those who blindly say..PRAY.
I would rather cry
and be angry.
That is real.
You are real.
and nature has struck again
with pain and suffering.
If I could make it stop
I would.
But all I can offer is a tear
a sob, and rage.
what good will that do.
none.
so I swallow them whole,
smile.
and wait.
for you.
to say it will be ok
or goodbye.
either way, I know you.
the pleasure is mine,
and the gift eternal
as are you.

Education
holy hell
Do you know how much a college degree costs????? Do you know how many kids and adults default on their student loans???? TOO MANY! Now, we have this social stigma that says "you can't get a good job without a degree". BULLSHIT! You can get a job that pays very well with hard work and having a 4 year jump on those who spent 4 years drinking at a major university.
I have a good friend who obtained her master's degree. Good for her. She now works at a major Pharmaceutical company. Her education costs were in the area of 80,000 dollars by the time she completed her education. Her chosen field, with her current level of education, tops out at earning 60,000 dollars annually, and that is after an average of 15 years of employment.
Do the math. She pays more than my mortgage in student loans. AND she hates her job, and has borrowed money from lil old me...on more than one occasion. You know why? Because she is trying to pay off those loans before she is in a walker.
This is what I think. A university SHOULD NOT be allowed to charge more for an education that can be paid back in 7 years when working in the student's chosen field. When I say that, I mean tuition only. Did you know that these kids are forced to purchase books that cost hundreds of dollars....and they never OPEN them???? Then there are bookstores on campus that you can sell them back. hahahha If the book cost 200 dollars...they will get 30. Then the store (owned by the university) will resell it to another student AGAIN for 200 dollars. BUT there is nothing the student can do...it is required...BY THE DAMN UNIVERSITY!
btw...do you know what a sorority girl with a cell phone, too much makeup ,and her muffin top hanging over her WAY too short shorts is referred to as by the men and boys on campus? "A cum dumpster". Think about that the next time you write the tuition check. THAT btw,,,is information I never wanted to know.
So now I am faced with a profound dilemma. I am pro choice. I hate government interference in my life.
I am screwed. So are you.
Knock off the stupid party wars, and get some damn control back! This is a nation of the people...not bs business and overpriced education...and government control...get some damn control over yourselves and start paying attention.
end rant.

I have a good friend who obtained her master's degree. Good for her. She now works at a major Pharmaceutical company. Her education costs were in the area of 80,000 dollars by the time she completed her education. Her chosen field, with her current level of education, tops out at earning 60,000 dollars annually, and that is after an average of 15 years of employment.
Do the math. She pays more than my mortgage in student loans. AND she hates her job, and has borrowed money from lil old me...on more than one occasion. You know why? Because she is trying to pay off those loans before she is in a walker.
This is what I think. A university SHOULD NOT be allowed to charge more for an education that can be paid back in 7 years when working in the student's chosen field. When I say that, I mean tuition only. Did you know that these kids are forced to purchase books that cost hundreds of dollars....and they never OPEN them???? Then there are bookstores on campus that you can sell them back. hahahha If the book cost 200 dollars...they will get 30. Then the store (owned by the university) will resell it to another student AGAIN for 200 dollars. BUT there is nothing the student can do...it is required...BY THE DAMN UNIVERSITY!
btw...do you know what a sorority girl with a cell phone, too much makeup ,and her muffin top hanging over her WAY too short shorts is referred to as by the men and boys on campus? "A cum dumpster". Think about that the next time you write the tuition check. THAT btw,,,is information I never wanted to know.
So now I am faced with a profound dilemma. I am pro choice. I hate government interference in my life.
I am screwed. So are you.
Knock off the stupid party wars, and get some damn control back! This is a nation of the people...not bs business and overpriced education...and government control...get some damn control over yourselves and start paying attention.
end rant.

Homosexuality Is Just a Part of Our Evolution?
I was in a restaurant a week or so ago, and two men walked in. They were very attractive men...pretty, actually. They caught my attention because of how "perfect" they were...every hair in it's place...well dressed, etc.
OF COURSE, I immediately assume that they are gay. Why did I do that?
That is what got me thinking....they sat fairly close to us, and I watched their body language and mannerisms. (I tried not to stare...but they were REALLY attractive! LOL)
The one man had VERY feminine movements...gentle hands...a delicate touch when he held his food....very particular with his napkin....a HUGE smile...sweeping hand gestures....legs crossed....etc.
The other man was similar, but more masculine with his movements....sat with his legs far apart....elbows on the table....no napkin..LOL....and sat most of the time with his one arm draped over the back of his chair.
They were clearly enjoying each other's company.
I began to wonder why I assumed that they were gay....I could be wrong.
So, where does this assumption come from? I KNOW that there are very masculine gay men...and very feminine ones, as well. How can I assume that by body language and style that I know someones sexuality?
I used to work with a man who was straight, married and had 2 daughters. EVERYONE thought that he was gay. People would come to the nursery and say that someone helped them...blah blah...I would ask who helped them and they would whisper "the gay guy". They whispered it, as if they knew something HE didn't. ahhahahhah
He was short, thin, had a weird voice with a slight lisp...and moved like a chick...and he was VERY straight.
ok...so
This is what I began to think about...the attraction between the same sex....I believe that it is simple wiring of the brain, so to speak....
I think that people associate feminine men with homosexuality because it is a way of sub consciously explaining the attraction to another man...in other words, that they are more like women.
So, if that is the case....it makes me wonder about the brain wiring thing.
It has been determined that mis-identifying with your sexuality and being a homosexual is NOT the same thing, and is actually unrelated.
But is it always? Could it just be different levels of development?
I will use myself as an example.
I am a straight female. There is NO attraction sexually to women...as a matter of fact, I find women generally weak, and annoying.
BUT...
I fit the stereotype of a lesbian.
I am strong, I have always been active in sports, I am more comfortable around men and male dominated activities...I don't do "typical girl things", like shopping...etc.
I can be VERY feminine, when I am in the mood to be....I wear comfortable clothes...but when I go out...I am ALL GIRL.
Now, I wonder how close my brain wiring is to me possibly having been born a lesbian.
Now, why the hell do I think that? Because of the stereotypes....(yup, this is how my brain works...LOL)
The reality is that most times, you can't pick a gay person out of a crowd.
I believe that the number of homosexuals is MUCH higher than we think it is.
That spawned another thought....
Those who say that gay is wrong because it is "unnatural" and that the fact that they cannot reproduce proves it...are full of crap.
This is why.
We NOW, thanks to science and growth of our own brains...and abilities...can make babies with or without two sexes.
We can clone.
We can create life in a lab with a sperm and egg from donors....
so, I ask all of the good Christains out there who say that gay is unnatural...how many of you have used invitro...or any assisted fertilization to have a child?
How is it that you could not naturally conceive a child...yet that is your basis for determining what is right in natures laws?
Then I realized something...what if an increase in homosexuality is just a part of our evolution?
Think about it, if we apply the stereotypes....both behaviors of both sexes in one body...and combine that with the ability to create life without "natural" sexual intercourse....can it be?
So, my fellow "straight" people.....are WE the ones who are "unnatural"...for our time?
just a thought.

Repeal DADT
Don't ask don't tell is a way of the govt sticking it's fingers in it's ears, closing it's eyes and pretending that if we don't talk about it, it doesn't exist. It was a compromise between not allowing them, and protecting them from harm due to years of teaching intolerance and "false masculinity" to our military.
People will defend DADT because they say that it will keep the gay soldiers safe. Bullshit. As long as there is homophobia, and a breeding ground of hatred and intolerance in our military...they are in danger.
Our military capitalizes on the most basic human emotions and fears...hate, anger, defensiveness, aggression, power. You combine all of that...then you throw a homosexual into the mix...where there are men and women who have been taught to thrive on their most basic inhuman instincts..and VOILA a recipe for disaster.
So, the problem is not how we mandate or not what sexual orientation is allowed to be where...it is about educating people about what homosexuals are and what they contribute to our society. They are no different than anyone else...and the fact that I even need to say that is pathetic. That we even have to TEACH adults that who you fuck and love is irrelevent to whether or not you can defend your country is ridiculous.
Our society has to change it's perception of homosexuality before homosexuals can be safe and welcome in our military.
Right now, there is discussion about showers. OMG how childish. When people shower in groups...EVERYONE LOOKS AT EACH OTHER. So you are saying that the sexual orientation on the person looking at you is WORSE than you looking at the guy next to you, and being pleased that your dick is bigger? hahahah Yeah...it would be just awful to have a gay man see you naked and think you are attractive than to have the rest of the guys calling you "pinky" for the rest of your tour.
Group showers are stopping us from openly accepting gays into the military????? Listen to yourselves. Seriously..if you are that afraid of someone looking at you...maybe you shouldn't join the military..after all, you know that going in.
Women and men showering together is unacceptable due to numbers. The % of straights is higher than that of gays. The % is higher of men as opposed to women in the military. This creates a "dominant" group....straight males. Generally, men are more physically powerful than women...in a group with only a few women to protect each other..this could be disasterous. This is where DADT SUPPOSEDLY protects gays...if the other men don't know..it doesn't endanger the gay man? NOPE! It just forces the gay man to lie and pretend that he is one of them...what does that have to do with showers??? It has to do with the fears and insecurities and misinformation given to our young men and wome..and DADT allwos and breeds it.
Why does genitalia determine comradery??? Men showering..shitting...bleeding...suffering together bonds them...right? ok..so let man and women shower together...there will be ALL KINDS OF BONDING! hahahha
Sorry....genders separate....sexuality means nothing....EDUCATE EDUCATE EDUCATE!!!!!! Pull your heads out of your asses and stop thinking that every gay man wants to fuck you in your ass. I highly doubt that they find a one toothed hillbilly who can't pronounce his own name an object of desire.
Repeal DADT.
Educate our society....treat them equally....allow them the same privledges that we have...and realize that the worst of a group does NOT define the whole group.
Until that happens...it is dangerous for gays to be open in the military...and that is their choice whether or not to accept that danger...and OUR RESPONSIBILTY to demand that ANY soldier who is harmed or killed intentionally by another soldier is brought to justice under our laws.

Health Insurance
I see health insurance companies dictating to our health care professionals what they can and cannot do in regard to treatment and prescriptions. The health insurance industry OWNS our doctors. So let me make this simple without a lot of crap.
Insurance Co. A owns doctor B. Patient C pays Insurance Co. A a large sum of money monthly... in many cases a larger sum of money than they receive treatment value in that given month. Patient C gets sick and visits Doctor B. Doctor B diagnoses Patient C. Then Doctor B submits his bill to Insurance Co A. Insurance Co. A says...."NO" we don't cover that OR "We only cover a portion of that.....GOOD LUCK!" Doctor B then consults with patient C and explains that the money that they have paid to this company is worthless and the procedure will cost this much OR doctor B can do a less effective procedure that is cheaper and Insurance co A will pay for it.
Now Doctor B is in quite a spot, you see because without patients... he has no livlihood, so he tends to sway the patient into what will actually be paid for. Therefore NOT giving the best treatment but the treatment that guarantees his income. Doctor B's malpractice INSURANCE is so high that he needs the insurance company's approval or bad shit can happen.
So... the doctor needs insurance because we are a sue happy bunch of idiots, we need insurance because we can't afford the doctor because of HIS costs of running his buisness thanks to insurance... sooooooo... WE ARE FUCKED by insurance companies all around. Don't even get me started on deductibles and copays.
Now Pharmaceuticals. What a fucking scam THIS is. A Pharmaceutical co will develop a drug, an allergy drug, for example. They market it with full knowledge of it's side effects and dangers. IT IS ONLY AVAILABLE WITH A PRESCRIPTION for several years. IF you have insurance (separate from regular insurance, of course) you will pay a co-pay of anywhere from 10 to 60 dollars for your 30 day supply of that medication. If you do NOT have insurance you can pay upwards of near one hundred dollars for that medication. THEN after a few years, their right to sell that medication as a script runs out...and it is placed over the counter for general consumption at a retail cost of around 15-30 dollars. HOLY CRAP! Welcome to Claritin, Zyrtec...etc.
And some of you FEAR nationalized health care??????? This cracks me up because Medicare, Medicaid, Cobra, Welfare...... HELLO????? Government subsidized programs! We have a cluster fucked mess on our hands where big business (and THAT is all insurance is) control our health and well being... and the only relief from that, for those who need it, is provided by our damn government.
Now, our choices are limited here. We can
Our health, as a nation, is in the toilet. We are fat, sick and over medicated. So far... plan A is an epic fail.

- let the insurance companies and doctors run amuk. FAIL
- We can strictly regulate the insurance companies, Pharma companies and doctors. OH NO GOVT CONTROL, IT WILL LEAD TO SOCIALISM!!!
- We can nationalize healthcare. ARRRGGGG SOCIALISM!!!!
Our health, as a nation, is in the toilet. We are fat, sick and over medicated. So far... plan A is an epic fail.
The Bailouts
OK...the damn bailouts. This is ridiculous. This is basically what it means. You don't have money....so you go to the store and you swipe a card. You receive the merchandise...you can't pay the bill when it comes. That bill is generated by a bank who paid for your broke ass and now has nothing to show for it. SO YOU go to ANOTHER bank and say "hey....I spent more than I have". They say "oh...ok...here is the money. Bye." THAT bank just gave you someone elses money......
see the problem?????
Now if that second bank laughes and says HAHAHHAHAH NO LOSER.....NO MONEY FOR YOU! You are screwed. Your bank is screwed. Yeah it sucks...but that is as far as it goes. Now, if your bank has done that for hundreds of people they are REALLY SCREWED!!! But the people from the second bank aren't. So, it stops the bleeding at the source. Will that bleeding have a rippple effect? Of course. BUT it is the difference between throwing a pebble in a pond or a damn boulder.
If you made bad business decisions and went without regulation for years...and you collapse.....TOO BAD!
Now where is the REAL source of this problem???? Not the banks or the government....WE ARE! We are greedy, credit hungry fools who think that the whole damn world owes us something....why? Because we are Americans, dammit! We don't want government interference until we need a damn bailout or protection or healthcare.....THEN it is ok. GET A GRIP!
If I hear one more person bitching about how broke they are, and how little their job pays while wearing a 160 dollar sports jersey....my head is going to explode. We have completely blurred the line between "need" and "want". You DO NOT NEED most of the things that you buy! Look around!!!! You can start by telling your kids NO and then tell yourself NO!!!!! BUT the economists tell us SPEND SPEND SPEND...our idiot president even said it...AND WE LISTENED!! Why? DUH because we are idiots...and hate the government and don't want their interference but we will listen to them everytime when it makes us feel good.
Good job, idiots.....your great great grandchildren will still be paying for your X Box

What a Waste
So, I was in the bathroom last night...AND I noticed that there are flowers and hearts stamped on my toilet paper and it sparked a rant. I wondered how much extra I paid for those hearts and flowers on my toilet paper...and it pi$$ed me off. There are so many things that we pay for, one way or another, that are completely unneccesary.
like the following...
1. Papertowels packaged in plastic, then individually packaged in another plastic wrap. Then there is the stamp telling us that it is recycled. WTF??? They recycle, but double wrap the papertowls in plastic????
2. Garbage bags packaged in a box. You take the last garbage bag, and where do you put the box? Yup, in the bag. package them in a damn garbage bag...no waste. Does the picture of sh*t being crammed into an overstuffed bag that you can't even carry REALLY sell the product?
3. "ergonomic" kitchen sponges with fish and seashells stamped on them. IT IS A KITCHEN SPONGE!!!! first of all, do you REALLY use it so much that you need to avoid carpel tunnel syndrome? Oh for the love of everything unholy...if your kitchen sponge needs to be "pretty", you need help.
4. Cleaning products that are tinted to match the scent. Leave the damn scent out too...it still smells awful...just like an awful flower.
5. The fake picture in the picture frame. Do you buy the frame for the picture in it? NO! geeesh.
6. The hangers that hold the clothes in a department store. I DON'T WANT THEM!!! Quit asking me that. Take them back, use them again...and charge less for the damn clothes.
7. All the crap in the shoebox. Good gawd...tissue paper wadded up EVERYWHERE..silica gel, the plastic stick thingy, and all the printing on the box...by the time we see the box...WE ALREADY DECIDED TO BUY THE SHOES!!!!!
8. DVD'S!!!! Do I need to say more here? Ok, I will. ALL WE WANT IS THE DAMN MOVIE!!! BUT we pay for the outer plastic shrinkwrap that NOONE can open. Then there are the 3 damn "security stickers" that keep it sealed IN the damn shrink wrap. Then the cardboard case that the plastic case slides into...WITH THE EXACT SAME IMAGES AS WHAT IS ON THE PLASTIC CASE!!!! Then FINALLY we get it open after unlocking the little tabs on the plastic case. Then what do we find? At least 2 alarm tags inside. HOLY CRAP! Listen people, if someone wants to steal it...they will. Noone will notice the alarm going off anyway.
9. The stamp of the brand ON the bar of soap. OK. It came in a box, or plastic wrap that had the name on it already. Now it is open, and we are getting in the shower with it. I KNOW WHAT IT IS!!! I do not need the name stamped on the soap. ACTUALLY, the soap has been removed to put that name in it...so I got less soap, so that you can tell me who made it. Holy crap...necessary? NO!!!
10. Receipts. ugh....how many trees has to die for you to print a three foot long receipt with coupons that NOONE uses at the end of my receipt. I bought one thing and I have to roll the receipt to get it in my purse. STOP IT! I know that I am paying for that...one way or another.
