Lets Improve Health Care for all Americans



President Reagan is credited with warning us about the dangers that can surface when government tries to help.

Why do health care costs continue to spiral upward with no end in sight?  Why do some drugs cost so much here in the states and far, far less just across the border?  How do some countries with economies much smaller than ours pull off Universal Health Care? Why do we get screwed by big pharma time after time?

The Little White Lie

Alice   Grayson was to   bake a   cake for the  Baptist   Church Ladies' Group in Tuscaloosa, but forgot to do   it until the last minute.   She   remembered it the morning   of the   bake sale and after  rummaging   through cabinets, found an angel food cake mix   &  quickly   made it while drying her hair, dressing, and helping   her son pack for scout camp.     When she   took the cake from the oven, the center had dropped   flat And  the cake   was horribly  disfigured and she   exclaimed, "Oh dear,   there is  not time   to bake another cake!"   So, being   inventive, she looked around the   house   for   something to build up the center of the   cake. ...

Thank You Teachers!

In honor of Teachers everywhere - Teachers never know what they might have to do for their kids. A group of 3rd, 4th, and 5th graders, accompanied by two female teachers, went on a field trip to the local racetrack, (Churchill Downs) to learn about thoroughbred horses and the supporting industry (Bourbon), but mostly to see the horses. When it was time to take the children to the bathroom, it was decided that the girls would go with one teacher and the boys would go with the other. The  teacher assigned to the boys was waiting outside the men's room when one of the boys came out and told her that none of them could reach the urinal. Having no choice, she went inside, helped the boys with their pants, and began hoisting the little boys up one by one, holding on to their 'wee-wees' to direct the flow away from their clothes. As she lifted one little guy, she couldn't help but notice that he was unusually well endowed. Trying not to sh...
