Need a Hand?
Your Next Project Starts with Brownstoner
I’ve no problem with paying what I owe, but doctors like these, who refuse insurance or won’t deal with it means someone like me, and thousands of others will not get treatment they need. Doctors are supposed to answer to a higher calling- firemen and policemen lays their lives on the line everyday for a lot less money. That’s a higher calling too. You’ll never hear a firefighter say, pay me or I won’t run into that burning building.
“Everybody flies nude.”
Denton, there was also a political cartoon in Sunday’s Times to this end. 3 or 4 nude passengers checking in. One ticket agent turns to the other and says, “Now, I REALLY hate terrorists.”
Slopey, the name “Shopsin’s” doesn’t sound familiar, but based on your description, I believe that I’ve been to the restaurant you’re talking about. Now I want to see the documentary.

Joe, last night I had a meeting at my nonprofit, I hardly said a word and when I did, people’s eyes glazed over. Then this morning I presented at a roundtable at work and the facilitator came over beforehand to write down some quotes from me to use, she liked them so much. then I’m the resident jerk in person at PLUSA gatherings. Go figure!
“rob is so hungry for attention that when he gets banned here he goes over to curbed and bothers people with the same crap”
randy, when you got banned from here – on the same day as *rob* I might add – where exactly did YOU go and start annoying people???
“Oh that randi sure is on a roll today.”
rewrite: Oh that randi sure is on a Troll today.
kens, if you read the fine print you sign in every doctors office, you’ll see that same statement is there. If insurance don’t pay, you’re on the hook.

You’re right Denton but this guy seemed to be more vocal about it than usual. Guess maybe because Spine/Back surgeries are expensive and he probably had a fair share of bad insurance experience to warn patients verbally as well as in writing.
where has stevieB been????
hey dibs, what do you think of the latest theory about the rise in US equity markets? Sounds looney!
Supposedly there was a secret group started under Reagan to steady markets in case of a plunge, and the Fed has bought $80 billion in stock futures!
