Thoughts for the day

Day 42 of the current shutdown. And there may be end coming this week.

A nice fall day. The prescribed burns continue, but smoke today is less than it has been.

I hope everyone had a good Federal holiday to honor our vets.

Yesterday I got a bill from the local hospital for the EKG I had before my colonoscopy last month. The bill said I owed $1350 of the $4800 bill. This morning I called the billing department at the hospital. They said both Medicare and Blue Cross had paid and that is what I owed and suggested I call BC for the reason. I called BC and they had no record of the procedure. The lady said she could place a courtesy call to the hospital to figure it out. According to her the hospital never sent the bill to either Medicare or BC and the hospital apologized for this oversight. I won’t know more for about 90 days but I’m sure I don’t know the hospital money.

Then there was my cable box problem. After my blood treatment I took my box to the cable company office. I waited about 15 minutes as he worked with another customer. Then he took my broken box, scanned in the information, got me a new box and scanned the information and handed me the box. He never called me by name. I got home and the new box worked fine. Then I went up to my office and turned on the TV. Now that cable box didn’t work. I called again and about 20 minutes later the box was working. Then this morning I got an email that I was charged $15 for the new box. I called and got a terrible young lady who said everything was right. She then said I wasn’t charged for the second box, but I pulled up my bill and I was charged. I listened to her for about 15 minutes, told her she wasn’t helping and asked to speak to her supervisor. She said she didn’t want to waste my time because the supervisor would tell me the same thing. Then she offered me a package with less channels, cell phone plan, and internet plan. I told her she was no help, that she shouldn’t change anything, and I hung up. I’ll see what my bill says.

Now it is time for my phlebotomy. Maybe when they take out all that blood they can also take out some of the frustration. 

Animals From Native American Legends And What They Symbolize

Fox

The fox is admired for its cleverness and ability to adapt quickly. Fox stories remind people to use their intelligence for good reasons, blending in when needed or taking quick action.

They also warn that honesty must balance trickery—too much slyness might create mistrust.

Fox wisdom helps people stay alert and creative without losing the trust or support of their community. 

Boomers Were Forced to Memorize These Facts—And They’re All Useless Now…

Einstein Failed Math

Teachers loved using this “fact” as proof that even geniuses can struggle in school. But Einstein himself said it wasn’t true—he was actually excellent at math. The myth likely started because of a misunderstanding about how German grading worked. It’s ironic that a fact meant to inspire struggling students turned out to be completely false. 

Random Thoughts

I owed blockbuster late fees. My game plan of waiting them out worked, though.

A different version of you exists in the minds of everyone who knows you.

Someone out there vividly remembers something you said that you have completely forgotten.

I wonder if there are any time combinations on the clock that I’ve never seen.
