AHS LEAVES PATIENTS TO FEND FOR THEMSELVES

I have a medical prescription.  I am unable to get it filled because there are no dispensaries accepting new patients.  Its been 13 months now that I have had this prescription that isn't worth the paper its written on.

So I phone the Health Minister of Alberta.  By 11 am, the in box for the phone number is FULL and I cannot register my complaint.  So there is no recourse for me. 

I have a prescription.  I cant get it filled and I cant voice my complaint. 

The Health Minister's Aid said...EXACT QUOTE...Im sorry.  We cant help you.

That's the state of Canadian/Alberta Health Care. 

Americans have better health care than Canadians.  Any one who thinks different has never been through the AHS grinder.

LG DVD PLAYERS SUCK

I know I blow through DVD players like a pack of cigars.  But in my choices for DVD players...

LG DVD-BLU RAY players are the worst players on the market.  Even the cheap plastic Sylvania crap has better longer lasting sensors than LG.

They crap out within 30 days or less with a 6 hour daily usage.  That's 180 hours or less.  Can you say GARBAGE?  I knew you could.

Sony is the second best one I have ever owned...also the most expensive.

The best DVD player I have owned and am now buying another one...

IS...DRUM ROLL...

TOSHIBA.

3-4 MOVIES A DAY...for 18 months.

TD INSURANCE COMMERCIALS...STUPID IS AS STUPID DOES

There's a new TD commercial...Un-insurance is...

They then describe a scene where you park your car, it nudges another which rolls down hill bumps a hot dog stand which blows open a fire hydrant thus filling your sunroof with hot dogs and water.

If you cant be funny be practical.  If you are neither then you are pointless and/or insulting.

My wife who is 46 and has never held a drivers license said to me...Arent you supposed to turn your wheels to the curb when parking on a hill?  So they insure stupid people or those who create their own problems by not knowing how to park.  how did they get their drivers license?

Next...When the car is parked on the hill, there is 10 feet from the fire hydrant to legally park.  then the hot dog stand and my vehicle.  That puts the initial vehicle a minimum of 30 ft away...plus the roll down the hill.  besides the fact that a hot dog stand could never blow open a Fire Hydrant, the initial vehicle is parked roughly at least 60-75 feet away and up hill making it impossible to fill my vehicle through the sun roof.

Not funny.  Not practical.  Its a pointless and stupid commercial probably written by the bosses 12 year  old.

Be funny or be practical.  Describing unrealistic scenes that the laws of physics would never allow is insulting to the people who listen to the radio. 

I don't do business with companies that insult me or take me to be stupid.  Or who deal with idiots because then Im paying for their bad habits.

TD Insurance...where Stupid is as Stupid does.

KATHY GRIFFIN ISNT FUNNY

Take away Bill Cosby's recent and ongoing personal/legal issues...

Growing up I (as I suspect most of you did likewise) admired and respected Bill Cosby the Comedian.  I really liked the fact he was a family show.  He could get you laughing in the aisles hysterically till your sides hurt and tears were rolling down your face.

And it was all CLEAN humor.  No F-bombs.  Just good clean humor.

While I respect Kathy Griffin apologized for her lack of taste in her recent Trump effigy which failed miserably on all levels, she lost my respect with her response to the trolls and subsequent comeback.

Kathy Griffin is as funny as I am.  Im German.  Germans dont joke.  The fact that she has to rely to SHOCKING people shows how little imagination and talent she really has as a comedian.  She doesn't have any.  And the fact she thinks we enjoy her brand of humor shows just truly how out of touch with reality she is.  And Im insulted that she thinks the public is that stupid that we find this low class trailer park humor of hers funny.  It isn't and neither is she.

And Jim Carey...Canadian aside...he really isn't that much funnier.  His best work was Mask.  He's coming to a fellow comedians aid is all.  His reputation "carey's" no weight.  See...that was even funnier than Kathy.

If she is truly as talented as she believes herself to be then it shouldn't be very hard at all for her to be the bigger person regarding trolls.  And put some thought and effort into your career.  That's the very reason Jessica Biel is a flop.  She doesn't further or hone her skills.

Resorting to low level shock humor...isn't funny.

SCREW YOU TRUDEAU...GO PENS

HEY TRUDEAU...GO F**K YOURSELF!  OTTAWA IS ''NOT'' CANADA'S TEAM.

By that I mean Canada's Team is whomever WE AS CANADIANS choose to cheer for.  I will not automatically cheer for a team because they are the last Canadian team standing. Especially if Trudeau endorses a team.  Yes I absolutely HATE this punk Trudeau version 2.0.  And close behind him is the Ottawa Senators.  I have more respect for brussel sprouts.  And I hate those too.

I don't like the name Ottawa, I don't like the city, I don't like their team name which to me is arrogant and cocky...Senators...get stuffed...and I cant stand their jersey's.

Trudeau...says that Ottawa was Canada's Team because they were the last Canadian Team left.  What does that make Sidney Crosby?  He's Canadian. I'd be insulted if I was him.

The point is...Hey Lipshitz...Yeah Im talking to you Trudeau.  I DID ''NOT'' VOTE FOR YOU.  I do not recognize you for who you think you are.  You are not my PM. 

And you certainly...you arrogant prick...DO NOT SPEAK FOR ME AS AN INDIVIDUAL...EVER!

So its Nashville and Pittsburgh.  I called Chicago-Pens...Im half right.

Go Pens.  All I want...is for Barry Trotz to be replaced.  Washington will NEVER win the Cup with him behind the bench.  Nuff said.

ALLEGIANT-DID YOU KNOW?

Did you follow the Insurgent movies?  I like watching movies several times (more than twice) because I can catch all the little things better.

Things that action scenes hide.  Bad editing or plot fails. Occasionally it brings up a WTF moment.

In Allegiant, Triss Prior completes the challenges and opens the box.  This triggers a video from the founders explaining the Chicago experiment.  The woman talking in the video is Edith Prior.  Triss Prior's aunt.

Is LeBron James Wrecking Basketball?

He's this decades version of Michael Jordan.  He can single handedly win the game.  He's that good.

So what do you do?  Do you spend millions on basketball stars hoping to beat him?  Probably not.  I suspect a lot of teams are riding mediocre.  Rather than spend millions they are simply building average teams capable of competing but not winning.  Waiting for Lebron to get old and get out of the game.  He's too expensive to compete against for the competition.

So other teams are simply...waiting him out.  You can have too much of a good thing...unless you are Lebron James.
