don't get me wrong I am grateful

to have health insurance really I am however it just changed and it isn't quite as good as it once was and I already have found myself not going to the doctor because I did not want to spend the money...which once again I know I am lucky to have insurance but I honestly don't know how those without manage....I don't even know where to start a tirade because it is pathetic that this nation can't get their head out of their butt's long enough to actually try and rectify this problem

almost like clockwork

I am a buyer for a stored have been for many many years now. Each holiday season one of the owners takes note of what other similar stores in other markets are selling in their gift guides & online specials etc and inevitably I get a cavalcade of emails asking hey what about this? should we carry this too? why don't we have this stuff? and the ever popular look at this....
And inevitably every single solitary flippin' year if he would take the time and look at the merchandise in his own store there would be no need to send me goofy emails a point which I make to him every holiday season but sadly it's a point he never actually gets!
