Fifteen years ago at Arkansas, the health center mostly treated VD and colds. (I'm not kidding.)

It is STILL like that at Haskell in Lawrence, KS, but I am unaware of caseload at Kansas.

I think the Cal systems did but they may have been the only one. Reagan probably did away with that too, just like free enrollment.

20+ years ago it was the same at Southwest Missouri State. God forbid if there is a kid at the school with the same first and last name as you as they will not pay attention to that middle initial. After the file mix up I vowed never to go back but it did open my eyes about seeing which other records of mine had been switched with a student of the same first and last name.

This is maybe the best thing about yesterday's ruling. Mean Jean Schmidt, who called John Murtha a coward on the floor of the House, was in the crowd outside the Supreme Court yesterday. She was captured by a cell phone camera when she got the news that the Individual Mandate had been declared unconstitutional.

They did were I went. I broke my left shoulder and tried to shove my arm out my back. They took me to the university infirmary. They shot me up with morphine, set my shoulder, strapped my arm to my side and put it in a sling. Then they gave me a huge bottle full of dilaudid and sent me home. I had two follow ups and a radiologist shot a complete series of x-ray's and declared it good to go. Total cost: $15.00 I forgot to return the sling. The infirmary is still there, but it is no longer 100% free.

Mean Jean was really happy that millions of uninsured people weren't going to get health care insurance. She has her excellent Congressional health insurance for life and a big fat pension to go along with it. She lost her primary race to an even more bat shit crazy tea bagger. She just wasn't Conservative enough.

Too bad nobody caught the expression on that insufferable hags face when that was corrected.

I envision the wicked witch from the Wizard of Oz, with a lemon stuck in her mouth sideways - a'squealing "I'm melting!" I hope that someone got a picture of it because that's the true face of the tea party. I'm sorry but if ever there was a so called modern movement that resembles the National So************************t movement of the 30s this one is it. Too harsh? Mebbe yes, mebbe no. That display sure looked like a Brown Shirt to me.
