Clothes washers don’t clean. Light bulbs don’t illuminate. Refrigerators break too soon. Paint discolors. Lawnmowers have to be hacked. It’s all caused by idiotic government regulations that are wrecking our lives one consumer product at a time, all in ways we hardly notice. It’s like the barbarian invasions that wrecked Rome, taking away the gains we’ve made in bettering our lives.”   Government at its best is still bad.    less

I can look outside & know from alot of years of riding that its going to be a day on 2 wheels regardless of  the weather. Now for doctors & their opinions! If you go out on a limb and tell someone they are dying & only have a very few days to live & then place them on HOSPICE... that you would get their expiration date somewhat close to the time frame that you projected???  Dont get me wrong. I am thankful for what the hospice has done for me & just how GOOD of people they are, but when a group of doctors ALL concur that a person will be dead in less than 3 months and they are WRONG because you have lived past that date...do you think they should get paid??? Just wondering about the right & wrong on this one. Would like to thank all of those brother who rode in for bike week here in AZ!!! It was good to see you & I hope we will do beer & steaks again next year!!!!  less

Sometimes where water might have pooled and have later drained or evaporated off. My question how many of us have wiped out because of riding over or turning on such a mix on the road? Because of most of these spills like this usually happen at low speed or while turning, and most often don’t involve another vehicle most if not all of these go unreported and the cost for repairs comes out of pocket. I know that I have had a spill while making a turn because of something like this. Has the same thing ever happen to you???  less

Now being a "computer nerd" myself (hopefully not quite as nerdy looking as the guy in the commercial though) I fell I must speak out for all of us. The Budweiser commercial right before that had a man kissing a horse and then the two of them running toward each other like the ending of a romantic movie... and everyone welled-up with a big ahhhh! So a sexy women kissing a computer nerd is gross, and a man having a love affair with a horse is sweet! Now my self-esteem is really at an all time low :-( ~Lucky, the "computer nerd"  less

The Disabled Veterans National Foundation, based in Washington, D.C., and founded in 2007, received about $55.9 million in donations since it began operations in 2007, according to publicly available IRS 990 forms. Yet according to the DVNF's tax filings with the IRS, almost none of that money has wound up in the hands of American veterans. Instead, the charity made significant payments to Quadriga Art LLC, which owns two direct-mail fundraising companies hired by the DVNF to help garner donations, according to publicly available IRS 990 forms. Those forms show the charity paid Quadriga and its subsidiary, Brickmill Marketing Services, nearly $61 million from 2008 until...    less

    Interesting post, as recently I lost a friend to cancer who had been given less than 6 mo's.She passed away 2 weeks ago,& survived for about 8 weeks after the diagnosis.They found the cancer after she started having fainting spells.Some sort of tumor on the heart. It made me start thinking what would have happened had she not passed in that time frame or even recovered n survived it.Should the doc's even get paid?? It may sound silly yet I to some degree have to say NO dont pay them !!! LOL anyway we all know how that would fly,like a lead balloon

    I had a similar experience with my father, who passed away from pancreatic cancer which had spread into his bones (apparently this is common).  He went into the hospital because of blood loss from what turned out to be a benign tumor.  While there, they found his cancer had spread, and said he might live as long as six months.  He was gone within thirty days.

    In regards to the original poster: I suspect you know this deep down, but you asked for opinions, and mine is that your expectations are unrealistic.  You can't schedule death.  Only God can do that, and I think we all know He likes to keep us guessing.  I don't mean to be overly blunt, but I don't know how else to say it.  The other post regarding pancreatic cancer is a good example.  I've lost two friends to this horrific form of cancer.  Only one out of four people diagnosed with pancreatic cancer will live beyond one year after their diagnosis.  Only 6% will live beyond five years.  Yet some people recover completely and live long, happy lives.  There is simply no way to predict who that fortunate few will be, and I don't think you can say "what the hell are we paying you idiots for?" if they tell someone with pancreatic cancer they'll likely be dead within a year, and end up being one of the lucky ones who are alive ten years later.  It doesn't matter if you're the smartest person on Earth, there still is no way to know.  I certainly wouldn't question a man's ethics because he couldn't predict within a week or month's accuracy when me or someone I loved would die.  It's just not that simple.

    Ok I stand corrected LOL wow!!! So its entirely possible that figure must fluctuate every year & correspondingly the number of fatalities.Also I wonder if this figure includes all dental surgical procedures?
    It must generate billions for the economy.

    I wouldn't be surprised, and I suspect that includes elective/cosmetic surgery as well.  And when you add in all the related costs, medicine, hospital room, etc., it's a small fortune!  Big business for sure...

    Just an interesting figure I heard on the radio the other day,there is nearly 10,000+ deaths a year from medical mistakes in this country.I am shocked to some degree,still there must surgeries that number in the 10's of thousands going on every year.

    According to CDC, there are over 50 million inpatient and outpatient procedures performed every year in the United States...

    Oh, yeah, on my first bike. Very sharp corner, lots of loose gravel, going way too fast. I actually didn't lose it in the gravel, thank God. But I slid into the grassy swale along the road, and it was still slick with morning dew. I ended up sliding into a mailbox just around the corner. No structural damage to the bike, but I needed a new front fender and the fairing was destroyed. Nothing like riding back into town with a fairing dangling off the front of your bike to show the world that you just dropped your ride.
