6 miles

Two this morning, with the team. Four just now by myself. Still lots of walking, but not as much as a month ago.

This is the view from the porch.

A link between climate change and Joplin tornadoes? Never.

Someone read this Washington Post editorial over some news clips of recent weather event news footage.


Be warned, this is a partisan video. Because apparently saving the planet is a partisan endeavor.  One one side are people, on the other side are politicians and their corporate over-lords. 

And, it's getting worse.

The take away quote:

… it’s reassuring to remember what the U.S. Chamber of Commerce told the Environmental Protection Agency in a recent filing: that there’s no need to worry because “populations can acclimatize to warmer climates via a range of behavioral, physiological, and technological adaptations.” 

Don't worry, be happy.

Health Care in America, part 42,851

I had a procedure done the first week of January this year. (everything's fine.) The bills have been dribbling in. I just got one for $225.

Six months after the test, I get a bill. I think this is the fourth one. Each service provider is individually represented. Even though each bill comes from the same parent entity. Although, I still haven't heard from the valet. (I kid, I kid. I paid him at the time of service delivery).

If Sutter is having cash flow problems I have some suggestions.

Oh, and after waiting six months to bill me, I have 10 days to pay.
