We just watched the most engaging, engrossing film. Came in the middle of it, and didn't know what we were watching, but I was totally hooked. Then I went to the link above to buy it.

Chicken n dumplings
Today we wandered around the "World's Most Amazing Flea Market" for a few hours, and then came home to chicken in the pot.

To Brett Guthrie (R)
I was sorry to receive your email that did not support the White House's call to pass health-care reform. I have good insurance, and I am constantly aware of the work that is done in our family's behalf to keep the employer/union benefit plan solvent. My oldest daughter was caught by a "glitch" in her insurance. The health-care provider and the insurance company, between them, left us with a $85,000 bill that we had to pay cash for, for necessary services that should have been covered. This is a difficult debt to be paying down. Our youngest daughter is 25, with no benefit plan from her employers, and is struggling to figure out what she will do in two months when she comes off our family insurance.
And we are the lucky ones.
I know you represent a "conservative" area, but why are the good "conservative" folks so easily stampeded? A few years ago they were whipped up by "issues" of gay marriage and faux-patriotism. They were told to elect GBush to end abortion, so they elected him. The ones who wanted to nuke the middle east to glass were happy to tag along, and Bullitt County rolled right with it. Now it's all going again.
What about you? I'm really tired of the rabble-rousing. Health care and life issues are taking us all down the tubes, and I expect you and your staff to be working to give the small business workers and the self-employed and unemployed and the currently-uninsurable the same types of opportunities as you and I have, including the opportunity to understand and participate in meaningful dialogue on end-of-life issues.
In advance, thank you for your civility, good sense, and hard work.
