Doc-"Do you have any guns in the house?"

Patient-"Do you take any perverts up your ass?  Just do the medicine, Doc, OK?!"

Funny, with my medical event here (throat) the doctor only asked me about my general health and throat.  He didn't ask about and give me dirty looks about wife beating and guns, he gave me dirty looks about alcohol (after 6PM) and coffee.   ;D

Yeah, the cost.  2 clinic visits, 1 hospital test, and about 2 months worth of Nexium.  $400 all in.  My last month of Minnesota health insurance for one month (before the 50-66% increase) was $1,350.

Yes, I'm ahead.

Dr Miguel did OK, eh?

No Obamacare, no Medicare...no Govt calling the shots...just straight medicine and straight-cash-homey?

Y'all primitives!  Need the loving hand of government, y'all don't know the risks your taking!  Think of the children!
