Hi to my fellow babblers!How is everyone doing today
7:05 am
MonkeyGames

It was very bad but now that he's doing so well I can face how much worse it could have been. He's alive, it wasn't his head or his spine, it was one leg instead of both, and he will be OK. It doesn't hurt anymore and he's over the trauma, even wants to make a book so other kids can learn about not running into the street. His leg is weak but that's just muscles and it'll build back over the coming months, and he has scars but none of us care.
7:05 am

Yay JMC!

hello again all
7:52 am
redturtlehead

I like to use more words rather than asking for a million clues at the end!
7:52 am
gremlinn

me? yes
7:53 am
redturtlehead

at 2 am, most likely.
7:53 am
redturtlehead

I am making blue berry muffins for the PB, and offering to all...in about 15 minutes.

And can someone explain to me why I think OSTER is a word. I try it every time...

various words related to bones
7:55 am
Uneaixoise

yay, sprite!!!
7:55 am
Anniebrook

When Lickety's list is not available how would I get gremlinn's list near the grid so I do not have to switch back and forth.
7:55 am
redturtlehead

no, I think oster is a word. but not a bone word. I always think of it as some sort of government official.
7:55 am
Anniebrook

YAY for spritey!!!
7:56 am

we used to have a Fred Oster in the netherlands, but I doubt that is the one.

7:56 am

7:57 am
Uneaixoise

same here
7:57 am
redturtlehead

I dont use clues till the end. I have to admit on non lickety days I think I have a slight advantage.
7:57 am
sprite

thanks all! Off with me, bit of laundry and a bit of sleep again. I think the chair in the garden will be just perfect for the latter.
7:58 am
crosshair

helps that mine is a 19 inch wide screen,i give the list 2 inches and 17 for the grid and can still see the chog
7:58 am

I am laughing because I am so computer illiterate (you all know this by now) I have no idea what you are saying. Thank you all for trying to help. I will muddle as best as I can.

annie, do you know how to grab the edge of someone's profile with your cursor?
7:59 am
gremlinn

I have two monitors hooked up - it's so convenient.
7:59 am
crosshair

that works also;)
7:59 am
Anniebrook

I think so Une
7:59 am
Uneaixoise

you can grab any side OR a corner
8:00 am
Uneaixoise

that's what we're talking about
8:00 am
Anniebrook

Une, should I open gremlinn's profile now?
8:00 am
Uneaixoise

if you grab the edge, you can change the shape -- for instance to a long skinny one and put it next to the grid
8:00 am
Uneaixoise

yeah, sure :-)
8:01 am
Anniebrook

Une, ggoing to do that now. Thanks!
8:01 am
Uneaixoise

lemme know how it works for you :-)
8:02 am
Uneaixoise

you can move that around on your screen by putting your cursor in the colored band at the top
8:02 am
Uneaixoise

anyone who's a good "explainer," please jump right in! LOL
8:02 am
gremlinn

click on the band and hold down to move it
8:02 am

8:02 am

Uneaixoise

are predicting, I went out last nite and cut armloads of flowers!
8:11 am
Uneaixoise

was afraid they'd get beaten into the ground by wind and rain . . .
8:11 am
Mom

you are going to have a storm, Une?
8:11 am
crosshair

just google skype and follow the instructions..it is very easy une.because skype can also be used like a telephone i use my real name with a underscore to seperate first and last names
8:11 am
Mom

we have no flowers yet.
8:11 am
Uneaixoise

(well, armloads may be an exaggeration)
8:11 am
crosshair

but...
8:11 am
Mom

I knew what you meant Une
8:12 am
crosshair

if you dial people who do not have skype,there is a per minute charge
8:12 am
Uneaixoise

8:12 am

if you have a loved one far away,skype is almost vital
8:13 am

8:13 am
Uneaixoise

8:14 am

Uneaixoise

8:15 am
Anniebrook

8:16 am

8:20 am
gremlinn

I had a book from around 1980 that made predictions about the 21st century, along with mock-up illustrations. One prediction was that we'd be using videophones, and they made it look like a monitor with a phone plugged into it. They didn't anticipate that personal computers would become so versatile, I guess.

sorry to hear Dorens, it is happening everywhere, no consolation I know
9:14 am
Dorens

budget cuts in all nj public schools thanks to our wonderful new governor. elementary/middle school guidance is not essential. all over nj... no openings
9:15 am
Judi

No, Dorens - at 60 you are overqualified for most jobs!
9:15 am
SeaSpray

they don't think those kids need guidance?
9:16 am
kje

stupid stupid people... how do they think they can keep cutting education and not worsen the economy due to stupid kids and crime.... ignorant
9:16 am
Angelsong

kids that age are in dire need of guidance!!! GRRR, Dorens. That angers me, that they would cut those jobs!!!
9:16 am
Dorens

oh they know they need it... but the state has taken out a huge chunk of our budget and where are they going to make the cuts? can't cut mandated programs. (of course administration should be looked at a bit more closely, but the bored of ed doesn't seem to know that)
9:17 am
Judi

Kids need more guidance now than ever. There is a rash of incidental parents out there who think the school systems will raise their kids for them. I work at a police department. Believe me, we see the products of absentee parenting all the time.
9:18 am
SeaSpray

Administration is usually top heavy to say the least, my friend just lost her job with the board of ed and she had been there for 38 years
9:18 am
Dorens

oh Bill Maher was so right last week... he said stop firing "bad teachers" and fire "bad parents" and there are more and more of them every year
9:18 am
Angelsong

Judi, I see it in my job daily as well.
9:18 am
Judi

I really believe you should be required to get a license to have children.
9:19 am
kje

we see the effects in healthcare too... parents won't say no
9:19 am
Angelsong

amen, Judi. any cat can have kittens. Takes a lot more than that to be a parent!
9:19 am
Dorens

so true.. been saying that for ages.. (particulrly when i taught middle school inner city school and every year a 7th or 8th grader had a baby)
9:19 am
Judi

Dorens - maybe you can start your own business: Parenting for Dummies.
9:20 am
Dorens

not a bad idea judi... only problem is that the only parents who show up to parenting workshops are the ones who are interested and care... like, the ones who DON"T need it
9:20 am
Dorens

(not to mention, my own children might chuckle away at that)
9:21 am
SeaSpray

lots of times it is easier for the stressed out, over worked parents (and not only the dummies) to let someone else do the parenting, very sad
9:21 am
Judi

No kidding. Talk to the judges in your local family court. Sometimes the court will order family counseling (same diff).
9:22 am
Dorens

i'll look into it.. not sure if i have the proper credentials, though.. i think i'm only quallified to work within a school system!
9:22 am
Judi

That's true SeaSpray. However, it doesn't stop them from having MORE kids though. *bangs head against wall*
9:22 am
SeaSpray

But then again, a lot of those parents put themselves in that position
9:23 am
Judi

Pffth. You are probably more credentialed to counsel than most clergy.

9:28 am
featherbee

however, i will say this. i have one parent in my room this year...she's an african american single mom, 3 kids, working full time. her son is repeating K with me this year. all she needs/wants is for someone to show her how. i gave her letter cards, game ideas, etc. she's pulled her son's letter knowledge through the roof. she 's done so much with him at home in so many ways, and she's definitely one i would say is over worked and over stressed.
9:28 am
kje

ty dorens
9:29 am
featherbee

so while yes, i do see a huge amount of parents who don't bother, be careful about categorizing. i was so very pleasantly surprised this year.
9:29 am
kje

yes weed... i can see that... people who were not parented well would have no idea where to start
9:29 am
Dorens

many are overworked and overstressed... the state of our economy isn't helping any
9:29 am
Dorens

i know a lot who care so much, just don't have the tools, knowledge, etc
9:29 am

plus... you have the whole mazlow heirarchy thing...
9:30 am

yep, sometimes it's a matter of educating the parents. in a gentle way.
9:30 am
kje

yay, 8's and 9's gray
9:30 am
featherbee

mazlow?
9:30 am
Dorens

my answer is to have things kind of like communes, for all these single mothers who had kids early (usually their moms did too) and haven't seen good parenting. and have some super moms there to model and direct how to raise kids
9:30 am

yes, mazlow's heirarchy of needs... the bottom of the pyramid being food and shelter... that is where many people live, so it is asking a lot to expect them to operate at a higher level

re8/40 - looks like a form of a word meaning to put back to former glory. re8/45 - combine two words, one meaning looking back, the other to do with what people are employed to do on stage.

No I thin k the rainy weather has got me rather sleepy, that and I have a benadryl hangover.
4:53 pm
dcseain

it's to rain here tonight/tomorrow
4:53 pm
dcseain

the temp's already falling
4:53 pm
redturtlehead

it does have to rain sometime.
4:54 pm
PAV3

aah...yes, I'm avoiding my neighbor 'cuz I told her I'd go with her this morning to church and I bailed at last minute...not that I really needed to go...
4:55 pm
redturtlehead

just call her and tell her you have the flu.
4:55 pm
PAV3

nope, no rain here and it must not rain forever more! I don;t like rain...I melt when I go out...
4:55 pm
PAV3

well I told her yesterday my back was killing me...
4:56 pm
Tanja

missing a 9 - got the refix and the take back one
4:56 pm
redturtlehead

kidney stone then....though I do not advocate not telling the truth....
4:56 pm
redturtlehead

Are you a church fan Pav?
4:57 pm
PAV3

I cannot tell a lie....oops!
4:57 pm
Scrabbler

Hello again Babble buddies!
4:58 pm
redturtlehead

Scrabbs, hi!
4:58 pm
PAV3

I was raised in the church..what I call puritanical Baptist...now attending on a monthly basis,,meaning once a month, a "community church"...
4:58 pm
Tanja

good morning all-has there been an update on Mr P
4:58 pm
PAV3

Hiya Scrabbler!
4:58 pm
redturtlehead

and does it work for you. I am not good at the church thing, but luckily I get a lot of "church" related stuff at work.
4:58 pm
Scrabbler

I just read her FB page--fractured left fibula and right ankle. She has pins somewhere.
4:59 pm
redturtlehead

goodness, she does seem to have a great deal of problems.
5:00 pm
Scrabbler

Yes. She will be wheelchair-bound for several wks.
5:00 pm
PAV3

I like this church, mainly because it's 35 miles across town and so I don't feel "committed" to anything...I was always taught, church is with the people, not a building,
5:01 pm
PAV3

my heart goes out to Lickety, having to have put up with soo much this year, with his daughter and now MrP....
5:01 pm
Tanja

thought she would be- poor family poor thing
5:01 pm
Scrabbler

I think that I will be switching to a closer Catholic church.
5:01 pm
PAV3

and I've been attending on Sats which fits my laziness better....
5:02 pm
redturtlehead

that is the truth. I have been thinking about trying to attend a local church, but the one I would like to attend is far away ....so I need to decide on another.
5:03 pm
PAV3

it helps that the church I attend has broadcasts so I don;t miss much sermon-wise...or as they say, teachings...
5:03 pm
redturtlehead

I dont think our church would ever do that....I do listen to the local CHristian radio staton that I enjoy.
5:04 pm
Scrabbler

There are a few popular evangelistic or nondenominational churches in the area, with music and many ministries, but I want to stay with the Catholic Church.
5:04 pm
redturtlehead

then you should stay with the Catholic Church.
5:04 pm
Scrabbler

I listen to the Family Life Network radio station--great music.
5:05 pm
PAV3

my family was "forced" into attending when we were kids...I don't have much of a guilt trip nowadays when I miss...there are more contemporary services at some Catholic churches
5:05 pm
redturtlehead

sometimes I find the teachings to be a bit too right wing for me, but I still listen.
5:05 pm
Scrabbler

In fact, I mostly listen to Christian music now--Aaron Shust, Brandon Heath, etc
5:06 pm
redturtlehead

We did not attend church when I was a child. Ever.
5:06 pm
dcseain

nor did we, red
5:06 pm
welki

hi all .. how did mr p injure her leg/foot? *poor kid*
5:07 pm
Scrabbler

We attended church weekly when I was a kid but we rarely spoke about religion or God in the home.
5:07 pm
PAV3

it's just htat my neighbor is so "gung ho" for the time being, and I hate to be a disappointment, since I believe she's moved near me for a reason....sometimes I just think too much about circumstances...
5:07 pm
Scrabbler

Hi welki + Seain. mrp tripped when checking on their chickens.
5:08 pm
redturtlehead

Well Pav, she can attend church without you. And meet many others. Perhaps there was a reason beyond laziness in blowing her off...
5:08 pm
PAV3

my youngest bros rebelled when th4 were 10-11..and since then refused to commit to a church
5:08 pm
Scrabbler

I have a friend that is a fundamentalist Christian and her mission is to rescue me from Catholicism and convert me to "bibical Christianity."
5:09 pm
PAV3

well, I wouldn't have been able to Babble for this long while if I did go!
5:09 pm
redturtlehead

there you go pav.
5:09 pm
Scrabbler

I just passed halfway.
5:10 pm
redturtlehead

83 left here and slowing waaay down. Yesterday was easier.
5:10 pm
PAV3

fundamentalists scare me....too narrow minded
5:10 pm
Scrabbler

The first 1/3 was fun. It has taken work to get to halfway. I don't know where 120 more words are hiding.
5:11 pm
PAV3

ok let's try to finish...have to try my hand at another angel food cake, since the last one went kaput...
5:11 pm
Scrabbler

Yes, PAV, she has sent me so much info to "save" me.
5:11 pm
redturtlehead

I will eat the kaput one, I am sure.
5:13 pm
redturtlehead

i think they are there Scrab, but very convoluted!
5:14 pm
PAV3

it was pretty bad...didn't rise, flavor wasn't there...I forgot the cream of tartar to stabilize the egg whites while whipping them, then I used a raspberry liquor to flavor only perhaps not enough...
5:14 pm
redturtlehead

well, maybe not....

5:15 pm
PAV3

ther've been days when you'd still beat me...I'm so dense
5:16 pm
redturtlehead

not today, I swear this rain has got me fogged in . also I was unable to go running...so everything feels off...
5:17 pm
PAV3

I have my treadmill stress te4 tomorrow afternoon, so not looking terribly forward to it
5:17 pm
dcseain

i hope the results are favourable, pav
5:17 pm

Good luck, PAV

5:18 pm
StephieC

Can anyone tell me why Lickety's clues are from a different puzzle than the one I have on my screen for today?
5:18 pm
PAV3

preferably not tumbling....or humbling
5:19 pm
PAV3

because lickety hasn't been updating the results of late
5:19 pm
Scrabbler

Lickety has not done the list for a few days due to a family emergency
5:19 pm

he lives fairly close by
6:07 pm
pam

you'll get advice from all angles, LOL
6:08 pm
nrkii

a few weeks ago, we got together a couple times for drinks... and he was pretty aloof... very nice, but demonstrated NO interest in a dating sort of way
6:08 pm
BookGirl

close can be good....as long as not too close....
6:08 pm
nrkii

so we kept on facebook chatting, very light and casual
6:09 pm
nrkii

Friday night, he emailed me and invited me to dinner at his friends house, where his friends wife was cooking a tenderloin roast
6:09 pm
dcseain

k
6:09 pm
Kaplan the Magne

So go.
6:09 pm
BookGirl

when was the last time he was in a relationship? did it come up?
6:09 pm
nrkii

went to dinner with him at his friend's last night, where there was friend + wife, another friend + girlfriend, and this guy and me
6:10 pm
nrkii

doesn't that sound like a date?
6:10 pm
pam

date sounding
6:10 pm
pam

yes
6:10 pm
dcseain

alright, sounds like a date.
6:10 pm
periwinkle

sounds like a date to me too
6:10 pm
dcseain

so, i vote the aloofness is shyness manifesting.
6:10 pm
BookGirl

most definitely sounds like a date....
6:10 pm
nrkii

okay, I"m trying to figure it out, because again, he showed no actual interest in me
6:10 pm
dcseain

other than that, how goes it?
6:10 pm
nrkii

other than the invitation
6:11 pm
dcseain

huh. odd.
6:11 pm
pugmama763

maybe he's gay & just wants a girlfriend to pal around with...
6:11 pm
periwinkle

well, maybe he just did not want to go to the dinner alone, just saying
6:11 pm
dcseain

yes, could be pugs
6:11 pm
periwinkle

may he is shy or gay
6:12 pm
torgone

Maybe he's playing you by acting uninterested
6:12 pm
nrkii

def not gay, though I agree that could be a possibility in this situation with someone else...
6:12 pm
BookGirl

did any gay vibes come through for you?
6:12 pm
pugmama763

or straight & just wants friendship
6:12 pm
nrkii

straight and just wants friendship... I dunno, because that kind of invitation is really very date-y
6:13 pm
nrkii

shoot... chicken timer just buzzed... bbs
6:13 pm
redturtlehead

I think the way to find out is to see if he invites you again. does it matter right now if a "date" or not?
6:13 pm
pugmama763

why do you say "def. "not?
6:14 pm
pam

laundry... bbs
6:14 pm
redturtlehead

oh but I dont give dating advice. it is not really something I do often, so.... :)
6:15 pm
nrkii

pug, based on some of our conversations about high school friends and such, I gathered that he is not gay
6:15 pm
nrkii

but, of course, "def not" is too definite :)
6:16 pm
pugmama763

just saying one can't presume such things have known many gay men & women married with kids for 20+ years...
6:16 pm
nrkii

pug, I totally agree, and me too

24 left and tired of this grid, but I will finish

I pay almost $200 every two weeks for health insurance for my family now - how much worse can it get

I can't believe there is a debate. Everyone deserves healthcare,that's it,end of story!Pass the bill already
7:00 pm

7:02 pm

and i hope you americans finally get some half decent heath care:) is it in vote yet?
7:03 pm
Kaplan the Magne

I am as anxious as I was on Election day.
7:03 pm
Kaplan the Magne

Not yet- they are declaiming. Some guy said Obamacare is bringing back the ghost of the 20th century dictators.
7:04 pm
crosshair

good grief..here EVERYONE gets free heath care and it is paid for at tax time,that way the richest to the poorest gets it.no one is left out
7:05 pm
Kaplan the Magne

It's not going to cost you more. It will make health insurance available to those without it, and stop insurance companies from denying you care if you are sick or have a pre-existing condition, and sucking the life out of you with premiums.
7:05 pm
crosshair

but i remember our ohip..was costing me 300 a month
7:05 pm
crosshair

indeed kaplan
7:06 pm
Kaplan the Magne

It's common sense. But the US is a very weird political place.
7:06 pm

Hello crosshair! How are you doing? Welcome to grid!
7:06 pm

here,the most down and out street person can still get health care should be same for you
7:06 pm
crosshair

howdy min
7:07 pm
Riverdance

my paycheck is certainly getting sucked out for premiums now -Im just afraid it will cost me more to give the underprivileged free health care - not that I dont think they need it also. Many of us work solely for healthcare
7:07 pm
Kaplan the Magne

They have had to water down this bill so much that it is far from progressive, but still better than the mess we've got.
7:08 pm
Riverdance

my son has a heart condition that he needs yearly workups. I cant not have health insurance.
7:08 pm
crosshair

i mean so what if your living on the street or not working,do we let you die..lol no! it costs money to treat a homeless person for a grave problem that could of been caugh earlier momneedshelp
7:09 pm
crosshair

you(the tax payer) will pay more to treat a homeless person who was not treated earlier
7:09 pm
Kaplan the Magne

I work with many underprivileged people and they- and their children deserve care. Massachusetts has affordable state plans now. There needs to be a government plan for those that want it.
7:10 pm
Riverdance

I know that crosshair - I am just tired of not getting ahead with paying over $400 month in premiums> I am right next door to you Kaplan.
7:11 pm
crosshair

i do not mind paying a little more tax to make sure everyone has access to univeral heath care
7:11 pm
Kaplan the Magne

I work with a lot of people who are or have been homeless. That there are so many underprivileged in this Land of Plenty is a shame on us .
7:11 pm
Kaplan the Magne

Where are you Mom?
7:11 pm
crosshair

.costs me less in the long run
7:12 pm
Kaplan the Magne

7:12 pm

Yes it is a shame. I am in New Hampshire. It kills me that they spent millions to advertise the census this year - that money could have gone to the underprivileged. Why did the government feel they needed to spend that money on advertisement. Foolish!
7:13 pm
crosshair

when im making 100 grand a year i pay the tax,when im between jobs(as i am now) i am covered,it all balances out
7:13 pm
Kaplan the Magne

Good Lord, it's HEALTH INSURANCE- listening to the opposition you would think that the government was trying to institute warrantless wiretapping. Oh, yeah- we done that already.
7:14 pm

indeed kaplan..its is old thought patterns thats all.once it is going it will be fine
7:14 pm

I know many people who are applying for jobs with the census- it pays $22/hour.

oh. I see. I didn't realize you have the full-time yuckies (I did too, with every pregnancy). Does ginger tea help?

stidmama

halfway!!!! I am glad to make my go4
8:39 pm
firefly779

i can't stand tea at any time, pregnant or not - have never liked the stuff unfortunately. i take giner pills though, and they help
8:40 pm
stidmama

yes, the thing is to get the acids neutralized. ginger worked wonders for me.
8:40 pm
firefly779

luckily my all-day sickness (morning sickness is such a misnomer) alleviates after the first trimester, or at least it did with my first two

10:43 pm
pippingeek

tourist season. except nothing near as good as last year, between the weather and the economy
10:44 pm
dcseain

ah, yeah, i learned about tourist season back when i lived near Union Station (DC) and commuted to Smithsonian Station on the Metro. I spent a lot of time that year directing peeps to the US Holocaust Mem'l Museum, which is 4 blocks from where i worked back then.
10:44 pm

10:45 pm
pippingeek

10:46 pm
dcseain

here, it's about Cherry Blossom, Folklife Festival/4th of July, and to a lesser extent, May-Sep
10:46 pm
dcseain

snowbirds and spring breakers sounds rather, um, difficult.
10:46 pm
pippingeek

i will say 4th of july there is quite a thing
10:47 pm
dcseain

yeah. i went to the Mall once.
10:47 pm
dcseain

never had a desire to go back.
10:47 pm
pippingeek

my dad used to have an office on i think e street, right off the mall, and we would go there to watch the fireworks when i was young
10:47 pm
dcseain

i grew up going to the White House for that holiday, which was nice. and when i lived on The Hill, the whole neighborhood walked down to the Capitol to watch together from the top of the hill.
10:47 pm
dcseain

oh, nice, pippin. :)
10:50 pm
dcseain

it was easier to go to teh Mall for fireworks back then
10:50 pm
pippingeek

sigh. so yeah, weather looks icky tomorrow, i thik i can convince my manager to let me stay home - leave the other 2 folks to sacrifice themselves
10:50 pm

10:50 pm

10:50 pm
dcseain

may it be so, pippin
10:51 pm
dcseain

yeah, it was still a very nice experience in the early 80s. Up through 83 The Beach Boys were the entertainment for the day.

I'v broken the fibula on both legs (not at the same time) -- didn't take too long to heal enough for a walking cast -- but the ankle sounds worse.
11:00 pm
stidmama

we are having SUCH a good time, and tomorrow we impose on Jill and Flo a bit for our entertainment.
11:01 pm
jillibus

No imposition -- a good excuse for fun!
11:01 pm
pippingeek

i broke my fibula in my left ankle, but i was a quick healer
11:01 pm

oh, je parle canadia tres avec, pippin! :-D I love it here. always enjoy visiting Vancouver Island and the Salt Spring folks.
11:01 pm

11:04 pm
crosshair

11:05 pm
jillibus

well, j'aime beaucoup or bien doesn't quite mean the same as enjoy
11:05 pm
dcseain

yes, we'll see how it goes. the beginning is the hardest. My state passed a law making it illegal for the gov't to compel us to buy insurance, happily.
11:05 pm
stidmama

CROSS!!! je suis canadienne aujord'hui
11:05 pm
dcseain

hm. true.
11:05 pm

Yes, crossy, I've been watching CNN

11:06 pm
Buttonman

a great many of us are not happy with the passage of the bill
11:06 pm
crosshair

well if your at the bottom of the income laddr im sure it is a relief
11:06 pm
jillibus

lets hope it can be improved over the years
11:07 pm

but it is a growing process same as what we had
11:07 pm

11:07 pm

i'm on unemployment, and therefore at bottom of income ladder at the moment, so i'll find out soon enough, ojalá
11:07 pm
crosshair

good night everyone and happy babbling..poof
11:07 pm
pippingeek

as someone who was in a position to live without health insurance for 6 years, i'm definitely for it, but i think this bill is so watered down i don't know how useful it can be
11:08 pm
dcseain

g'night crossy
11:08 pm
crosshair

then you do not have to sweat next time you break a bone dc..tc..really poof
11:08 pm
stidmama

my concern, as a parent of a child with chronic health problems is that when he is no longer eligible for our insurance, where will he get the care he needs if he, like so many young people starting out doesn't work for an employer with comprehensive health coverage? (((hugs cross on his way out)))
11:08 pm
dcseain

i'm currently uninsured, as it's health insurance or food at this point.
11:09 pm
dcseain

yes, stid, agreed that that is a concern. Esp since so many jobs don't provide insurance anymore
11:09 pm
stidmama

when I was young and uninsured, I was mostly healthy. But I was lucky.
11:09 pm
pippingeek

broke my leg sans insurance, have $12k of debt for it
11:10 pm
stidmama

oh dear, pippin... that's rough.

One concern that I do have is that at the moment government reimbursement rates to docs for services under medicare often aren't keeping up with actual co5 to the docs and some docs are dropping service to those patients. I would like to see a provision that corrects this problem. But I haven't (obviously) had a chance to look at any of this legislation.

interesting how someone pops up to voice an opinion, a discussion starts, and that person is never heard from again...

I can't believe that a world leader like the USA doesn't have universal health care!!!!
11:43 pm
dcseain

we were a first with universal education, and we are last on universal healthcare. Can't be at the top in everything, despite the nat'l myths
11:44 pm
cybernan

but you still don't have universal health care
11:44 pm
dcseain

well, it didn't happen overnight in Canada either :)
11:44 pm
pippingeek

universal education is a farce when you don't even approach universal literacy
11:44 pm
cybernan

no -- but it did happen some 50 years ago
11:45 pm
dcseain

agreed, pippin.
11:45 pm
dcseain

yes, from 55ish to 67ish as i recall, though i've not read about the process in some time.
11:46 pm

-- at least nationally -- prior to that each province had a form of universal health insurance administered either by the government or the doctors' associaton
11:46 pm
dcseain

Massachusetts and Hawai'i only states with such here thus far.

It was well before 1967, seain -- was certainly well established before I left high school in 1960
11:49 pm
dcseain

i'll read up on it again. i thought it took a full decade to phase all the bits in, starting with the hospitals, though it's likely i misremember to a decent degree
11:50 pm
cybernan

or maybe about that time. We have had universal care in BC for as long as I can remember.
11:50 pm
dcseain

yes, BC was one of the leaders, and a lot of Nat'l policy was set by what BC did.
11:51 pm
dcseain

from where i sit BC seems as well run as California is not.
11:51 pm
cybernan

Anyway, it works as well as any and better than some. Nobody goes bankrupt over medical bills, nor is anyone ever refused care.
11:51 pm
dcseain

i agree wholeheartedly, nan :)
11:53 pm
cybernan

And contrary to some ads run by the US insurance companys, we can choose our doctors.
11:53 pm
cybernan

That one really made me see red!
11:53 pm
dcseain

yes, there, nd in Bnitain and Holland, and Spain, and...
11:54 pm
dcseain

the Ins Lobby and right-wingers have spread HUGE lies about costs, choice, and lots of other stuff.
11:54 pm
dcseain

my mother was shocked to hear i favour universal care, and pointed out i lived with it in Spain while i was there, and found it quite satisfactory, and never a bill, even as a non-national!
11:55 pm
cybernan

It would seem to me that the ins. people are the only ones that really stand to gain from this legislation --- there is so much waste when everything is privatised.
11:55 pm

i'm so not finishing today. 31 to go. :)

I do remember when it was just hospital care that was covered -- I think that changed pretty fast. But I may be misremembering ;)

House vote (from a biased source): "Final vote tally is 219 yea 210 nay, 34 D nay, 176 Thugs nay, 2 Thugs non voting." now on to the Senate. Thugs = R in this context
