Aw, James. Don't give them any ideas!

There are still doctors who are reasonable. Mine charged a $32 office visit 
fee and gave me free samples of medication for a sinus infection. He 
knew...he mentioned that I was near 50 (at the time) and should have 
blah-blah tests done, but said... "I guess I won't see you again until you 
need me, huh?"

My mother has been in the hospital three times in the past year, every one a 
horrible experience, and the only way they will ever get me admitted is 
unconscious, and I'm thinking of getting Leslie's "don't you dare touch me" 
tattoo.
