One of the meds I'm on is $14,000 every 8 weeks. The medical system is definitely broken and won't change till it becomes truly non profit but this is merica 😉.
Just for clarity I have both Medicare through disability and private insurance through my wife. The 14 k is what the insurance co's pay not that it justifies the cost or anything. I just didn't want you guys thinking that came out of my pocket every 8 weeks. I prolly pay about 10k a year for all the insurance and as long as I don't need an ambulance ride or any stay in the hospital that's it. I could write a book about how terrible our insurance industry, medical industry, and social security benefits are and how dumb as a country we are about it but that's definitely not for this thread 😂🤣😂. Have a good night everyone :tiphat: :rasta:

Afternoon all :wave:

Got the old steroid shot in the spine early this morning, good times. We all have our own boat to row.

I hit up a couple Dollar Trees and got a early jump start on my Oriole food for the season -

I have too many (like that's ever a problem) cuts for my normal system so I am going old school cup which takes a good bit, but works. Everything still seems fine -

Had a couple afternoon Oberon beers. Good wheat beer. I like all beer, free beer is the best though :)

Other than that, I got nothin today. Not a foul mood just you know ...whatever... Hope everyone is good.
My favorite free beer story...I went to a nightclub with my wife and a couple of friends. The nightclub was part of a bigger hotel with beer drinking rooms. There was a popular big city blues band playing there. After the band first set, I decided to check out the beer parlor.
There was only man drinking in there and the band had a photographer doing a shoot for a record cover. The band was sitting at 2 tables pulled together and the 2 tables were covered with draft beer and pretend coke lines made with salt. I watched but never said a word. When they were finished with the shoot and going back for their second set. They looked at me and said would you like this beer, how could I say no.
There I was in the beer parlor with 2 tables of beer in front of me. My friends came looking for me and found me with all this beer. My best free beer story.

I saw Muddy at the Colonial Tavern here in 1976 - with Guitar Junior on lead guitar. I could only stay for 2 sets so I missed the closing one. In the mid-70s blues was at a low ebb and there were only 30 people in the audience that night. I got a good seat . . . :cool:
Maybe we seen each other, I use to go to the Colonial for Blues music or the Electric Circus.

I actually only went to the Colonial that one night. By that time, I was living 30 miles north of Toronto in my 1st house with my 1st wife . . . :rasta:
I went to a Blues concert at the U of Waterloo, there was a total of 13 different blues players with some some very well known names playing, mostly old time bluesmen. There was 1 white man playing with them and he was their harp player. It was a good concert of blues music. I thoroughly enjoyed the show.

I have a free beer story.
Went to a party. Dropped Sugar Cubes. It started raining and everyone but me and 2 guys left. Everyone left in such a hurry they forgot the beer. We were so off on the trip that 3 of us polished off a quater barrel of beer, but could not get drunk. Up all night that time, shit that was 45 years ago.
