An addendum to the former:
While a little early for Talk Like a Pirate Day, this one is for all of us who pay ransom to health insurance companies because we know coming down with anything would bankrupt us: Go Ahead and Die, by the Austin Lounge Lizards
For the record, I'm not fond of the health care bill as it now stands. The fact that there *is* a health care bill, though, is so much fucking progress that I'm inclined to count my blessings. It's a government program; I never expected to be happy with it. Just because it won't be awesome doesn't mean it's not desperately needed. And if insurance companies provided the service that they're supposed to, without screwing people over right and left, there wouldn't be any need for this program. You dug your hole, folks; if you fall in, tis your own damn fault.
