In related news, I have thought of a way to pay the proctologist.

Interestingly, I was joking about this same idea with a friend a week ago, although my barter unit of choice was ducks for some reason.

lulz defined: A state level politician seriously professing a stance you argued for in jest.

Um, she's running for Harry Reid's seat in the federal senate.

[Jasper]

Oh, I misread it.

Well that's actually funnier.

Also: does she know *anything* about how hospitals are run?  I've known people without insurance who tried to barter, they got told to pay in full or not bother, it wouldn't help their credit.

Barter or haggle?

I mean, I'd LOVE to see someone go to the billing department of a hospital with some livestock.

Point.  I wonder how many chickens you'd need to cover a 60,000 dollar debt?

Alternately, you could coerce the hospital into forgiving your debt.

"I have in my possession 500 greased pigs and 1,000 chickens. If you do not get rid of my debt I will release them into the hospital. You have 24 hours to comply."

I wonder why the people do not like Reid so much and I also wonder what the motives behind her running are.

[Requia ☣]

Reid's a democrat from a very red state, which means despite nominally being one of the most powerful liberals in the country, he's more than happy to sell out in order to make the 'moderates' from his home state happy.

This woman is the crazy the teabaggers have picked to replace him.

[maphdet]

Sheesh-America is just digging itself deeper into the fucked-up-ness of it all.

And people wonder why I don't vote for any of these mutants.


Well-off I go to tend to some livestock now.

Reid is a cheap whore.

This freak is even worse.

Was.  Not for sure anymore.  That may have been a Dukakis moment.

I can't think of anything funny to say, but this century just keeps fucking topping itself.
