George,

 GP> Ouch. Is it not fully covered by your insurance? It should be deemed a
 GP> necessary procedure. Maybe if your dov writes the order "r/o x" (r/o =
 GP> "to rule out" & X = wehsatever he feels right in putting fr a dsease or
 GP> condition.)

  I still have to make a co-pay, because I have Medicare only. The government
took away my SSI and Medicaid 15 years ago, because they said "$1500 between
my wife and I was too much money". Don't get me started on that.

 GP> No harm in asking your GP if the referral can be written in a way more
 GP> conducive to your good health (mental health is a big part of it &
 GP> stress is a killer)

  I have a TeleMedicine conference next week, and I'm going to bring up
depression. I hope I get the depreciation (around $900) after they finish
the bathrooms early next week, or I'm going to be in a world of hurt next
month.

 GP> She's an actress(etc.) from London, born to actor parents.  She's
 GP> currently age 47.

  I think she has 3 boys. She had to do a deal for 6 weeks, where she
NEVER took the monkey off. If she succeeded, she'd get a large sum of
money to donate to the charity of her choice. Otherwise, she'd lose it.
Needless to say, it was very stressful for all concerned.

 GP> Makes sense, now that peoiple are comoing back, they are thinkiung in
 GP> terms of recouping the money lost over the past year. (they wouldn't
 GP> try raising during covid, as that'd chase away the rare few customers
 GP> they might get)

  It's like a biblical plague...but according to the Bible, this is mild
compared to what's coming.

 GP> Breakfast is the most important meal of the day, & sets your day up for
 GP> you.

  But, if I don't have an appetite, there's no point in forcing myself to
eat.

 GP> have some granola bars I like handy & have 3 of those & a very very
 GP> VERY strong coffee(or two) to wash them down!

  I never acquired a taste for coffee, and never cared for granola bars.

 GP> If we foud good bananas tghe day before, I usually have one up with me
 GP> for the first bite of the day. . .

  I haven't had bananas in a long time.

 GP> FoxTV (not the FauxNews) aired a hidden cameras documentary showing the
 GP> number of staff who spit(& worse!) in customer's food throughout
 GP> America.

  Gad. No one cares what happens to anyone else.

 GP> One diner waitress, on ca,mera, directly interviewed said, "If you
 GP> don't tip & you come back, there WILL be spit in your food!"

  I wouldn't be eating there...I'd report it to the Health Department,
and shut the place down.

 GP> I find I get nice perks by tipping, especially in a low tip
 GP> area/restaurant.

  I've seen videos where they only order a glass of water, and leave a
huge tip. Too few of those around.

 GP> Nah, as I used to be one of them for a long time; It's just
 GP> Nature--i.e. God's way of introducing variety into His Creation.

  Tagline: How can you eat one of God's Creatures?? In a sandwich. 

 GP> Why eat a whole Mississipi Mud Pie (ice cream & cake, both chocolate),
 GP> whewn I can enjoy the tastets by having a small amount & bringing the
 GP> rest hmoe f or my family to likewise enjoy, or if I'm not dining solo,
 GP> I split it with someone, save half the money & still get to enjoy the
 GP> taste pleasures.

  That is real rich, though, and I can't handle that anymore. 

 GP> Don't you love pie?

  Pi are round and cornbread are square. :P

 GP> My wife gave me an ultimatum. It was either her or my addiction to
 GP> sweets. The decision was a piece of cake.

  Never mind the cherry on top.

 GP> Q: What do you call a snake that's 3.14 feet long?
 GP> A: A "π"thon

  That was in slithering fashion.

 GP> Q: What do you get when you eat 3.14 cakes?
 GP> A: You get fat. What, were you expecting a pi joke?

  If you eat the entire cake at once, you're still only eating one piece.

 GP> If you have a pizza with radius 'z' & height 'a', its volume is
 GP> pi*z*z*a.

  Does MNP-5 mean Modem Needs 5 Topping Pizza??

 GP> Q: What do you get when you cross a moccasin & a sweet potato pie?
 GP> A: A pie-thon

  It's poisonous to your waistline.

 GP> Those are the Pie Rates of the Caribbean

  Walk the plank, matey!!
