The constraints of being a Curmudgeon on health and welfare.

Anything the group can do to help?

Yeah, cure my sleep apnea, cure my gout and diabetes.
Then turn back the clock to September 10th and when a woman I don't know walks in and offers me a sandwich for lunch, a reference to an email I had posted several months earlier, make me think "Mossad asset drugging me' rather than being so damned trusting. I spent the afternoon and evening in a stuporous state, dazed, confused, mildly hallucinating and absolutely unable to send or say anything about Mohammed Atta or the WTC. Tried to call an old boss who was ex-cia and then Sheriff's deputy in Los Angeles and couldn't do it. Connected to public comments page at WINS NYC but only stared at the blank box, could not type anything. Had to have been drugs in that sandwich and since she looked just like a Jewish psychologist that is probably what she was. A good hypnotist for sure. I'm sure you can all imagine the scope of my guilt about this.

Anyway folks,,,, thanks to you all for thinking of me but I'm dry now and the air conditioning is back on and the plumbing is working again in this 'shelter' and I'll soon develop the courage and work out the transportation issues to get some homeless housing or Senior Housing in reality rather than always being on the list for senior housing.

And if I can't do that well maybe I will just kick off.

Now you have a legit reason for
people to feel sorry for you, it
will probably work out better
in the end that the hurricane
happened.

"“Come in,” she said, “I'll give you shelter from the storm” And if I pass this way again, you can rest assured. I'll always do my best for her, on that I give my word"

Get a walk through stern.
I have heard some people buy boats that don't even have engines, just to live aboard.

I maybe should look at an rv or stealth camping.
24grand for a houseboat is a tad bit out of my range. I could swing the 240 part.

Darn it. why do cell phones expire after a hurricane; can't they offer automatic extension as people swim to an ATM to get some money??

Why are some pharmacies closed but all casinos are open?

Gonna do the housing office thing if I can hobble there tomorrow. Irma kicked the gout into high gear for some reason?

Now I have to deal with cellulitis too; I think its time for me to start looking for an ice floe.

Cost of labor.
Pharmacists make a lot more money then your average dealer.
Median salary 122k

Gamblers often do not like electronic dealers but pharmacists often just count pills and probably should be taken out of the loop.

I get all my pills mail order, it's
the only way insurance will pay
for it. They don't like supporting
rich boy phamacists.

I use walmart. Its a zoo but I can transfer Rxs to other stores if I need to.
I sure hate everything about medicine these days.
I'm supposed to get a more powerful vacuum cleaner to blow in my face each night but its a long drive and I never feel up to it to even make much less keep the appointment.
