If you're going to go carnivore, keep an eye on your renal function. Those with any kidney issues probably shouldn't do it. Also, gout can be an issue.

22L worth! Hehehe...

Nails are installed! Went through 2 Dewalt batteries between drilling and impact.

Made some halibut for a get-together with friends. Made a lemon butter sauce to go with it, some rice pilaf, roasted broccoli, and a French baguette. Plus some beers of course. Hell of a good meal.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Nailed it. Many patients aren't willing to tolerate any pain and expect to be catered to. Many refuse to even leave the hospital when the are ready for discharge. Staff are still being physically and sexually assaulted on a regular basis and patient satisfaction scores help drive reimbursement. What could go wrong?!
No frost in the ground yet either.
Everyone takes a piece of the pie. Cost to occupy an OR suite, supplies, surgical tech, circulator, surgeon, and then there's anesthesia who charges by the minute at our facility anyway.
That's what you get when you make everything more complicated. It's a vicious circle of created complexity. Plus, more people are acutely ill than 10 years ago. Especially with mental health issues.
Much of it stems from regulatory bodies. The staggering amount of hoops that need to be jumped through for reimbursement/accreditation/etc. needs vast numbers of non-clinical people to service those hoops. Also, vast numbers of people are needed to constantly maintain and update the electronic medical record. Coding, billing, all that shit adds up quickly and then you throw in the expansion into health systems instead of stand alone hospitals and clinics and people are needed to oversee affiliates etc to make sure everyone is in line. Expansion brings about branding and advertising and here we are, the majority of employees have nothing to do with direct patient care. It's all about the business. We've lost our way.
People have short memories unfortunately.
Barack (lol) texted my son at 5pm yesterday asking for $20!
I'd say you're spot on. MN will remain a communist state due to the metros.
No ID in the people's republic of MN
It's also why a lot of young people can't afford a home and don't ever expect to.
Link?
Wow! She spoke to me! She had me right away with her smug, I know more than everyone, demeanor.... Us peasants should be so appreciative of the fact that she's there to guide our little minds. What really sealed it is the part with Liz Cheney, the daughter of KBR/Halliburton Dick... One of the many who made an absolute killing (literally & figuratively) off the GWOT for the last 20+ years.
Caught these from our driveway...
He's always been thin skinned!
Wife and I stayed at Superior Shores end of last September and it was quite the disappointment. It was run down, we booked a handicapped accessible suite which turned out to be not accessible. They found us a room that we made work but it was a struggle. Talked to some other people in the lobby checking in and they had been waiting for a room for 6 hours. They had driven 8 to get there. We had fun, but not at Superior Shores.
Our vehicles have crept up... Doesn't help with all the jackings in the TC. However, homeowners just went up 26%! Found better coverage for cheaper and making the call tomorrow. Fuckers.
She kicked his ass! She lied, he lied, doesn't matter. She came across as more reasonable. They're both fucking morons but hey, I've gotten significant raises over the last 4 years and guess what, I'm worse off. Also, Timmy is still a douchebag!
