A collection of thoughts and asides about life. And if I think of anything that needs to be mocked, it will show up here.
"If a man is offered a fact which goes against his instincts, he will scrutinize it closely, and unless the evidence is overwhelming, he will refuse to believe it. If, on the other hand, he is offered something which affords a reason for acting in accordance to his instincts, he will accept it even on the slightest evidence. The origin of myths is explained in this way."
--Bertrand Russell
Yesterday, I got a call from the collection agency handling my emergency room bill from last year. The ER doctor basically looked at my leg, and said, "Call the other doctor!" For that he charged me $350! I need a job like that. "Yes, ma'am, I'll get the salesman for you. That will be $100, please."
Anyway, they took $155 as payment in full. Whew! One more bill out of my life.
