Because of me, pharma companies know how to better to "speak" to you, raising your overall awareness of treatments for your ailments. You're welcome. :)

Can yo do something about the "helping" drugs not having like 15 side effects that make life worse?

Can you do something about your bad genetics making yourself susceptible to the rarely occurring side effects?

So your answer is no :ultra:
Fat, drunk and stupid is no way to go through life, son

No wonder they fired you.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Raz is right. -MadImmortalMan March of 2017

I help ensure that Europe gets the network of real estate offices that it deserves.
I am, somehow, less interested in the weight and convolutions of Einstein's brain than in the near certainty that people of equal talent have lived and died in cotton fields and sweatshops.

All right, Israel and Turkey, too.

Also, that bald eagle is probably Canadian, FYI :D

:huh:
aren't the bald eagle numbers in America plummeting? Or am I misremembering?

If they were plummeting, wouldn't there be a lot of them lying around?  :hmm:

I earn about twice the Hungarian average, which means that my monthly tax payments roughly equal the net average monthly income.
That's some respectable social utility right there.

Is this a math test question to figure out what's your tax rate is?
