A loophole in healthcare reform?

Blog Guy, I have a question about the new healthcare plan. See, I have a special girlfriend and I want to know if she’s covered. Louise is, you know, inflatable. Let’s say she got punctured. Yeah, let’s say that.
Um, just flipping through the new law, I have to say I don’t believe Louise is covered.
Oh no! So there’s a loophole in the law?
I suppose if you call overlooking the needs of pervy lowlife creeps whose dates arrive in plain brown packages is a “loophole,” then yes.
But judging from this photo, I believe perhaps Louise would be covered in India, so why not send her there?
No! That’s Thelma, my FORMER special girlfriend! I can’t send Louise to the same hospital as Thelma!
Oh wait, page 1,682 of the final bill says the new plan WILL deliver a new inflatable party doll, right to your home.
That’s great news, Blog Guy!
Of course, it will be delivered by a Death Panel…

Dude, seriously – collage???? I expected higher standards of proof-reading from you!
That’s what I get for pasting in the original caption without reading it. It’s fixed now, Bethy.
But as for expecting higher standards, maybe you’re in the wrong blog….
“Learn nothing about dating by joining the Oddly Enough blog network!”
That “party doll” must come from the Amy Winehouse collection.
No Spinster, Lonnie is a GUY, just like Lamar. Indeed, they are making a rare joint appearance in an item I’ll be posting here in a few minutes. Watch this space.
Well, Bob, as to higher standards, I did only specify proof-reading!
I think we’d all be disappointed if you raised your standards in other areas, unless it’s better male eye-candy and shoe shots. And ok boys, smaller white bars.
What about Loreena, Baz?
And we mustn’t forget Pamela and her five sisters eh?
E.
It’s not Loreena, E., you’re thinking of Bonnie Portmore, another one of my regular characters.
Bethy, if you can influence Basler to give us more male eye-candy, I would bow down to you, for a full 5 mins!
Ofcourse, that would mean, me sitting on my chair, and resting my head on the desk… some may call it taking a snooze, but hey, we both know I am bowing to you!!!
ifly – Doll? I thought that WAS Winey Amehouse.
What’s that dot between its eyes? I thought those went on the forehead?
I feel for them, really I do. Having to speak to those dummies is a terrible thing indeed.
more of CSI than nursing :-O
Who knew Picasso had a side line in resus dummies ?
They seem to have got the hang of nasopharyngeal and oropharyngeal airway insertion. I’m not sure I approve of their re-use policy, looking at the state of them though.
Nurse, are you talking about reusing the nurses?
Single use nurses, now there’s an idea…
@zeitgeist….well I’ll be damned… it IS her! Wow, she really has perfect the glazed over look hasn’t she!
Unca…. I think we will count this as Slip#1… 2 more and Strike out!
Ew, you managed to get the words speculum and wetnurse into the same sentence. Wrong on so many levels.
Would you like me to throw you a spade or are you going to stop digging?
I have spades to lend out, and I’m enjoying this…
Tim, those ARE shorts? I thought they were regular trousers that had climbed up on the account of being too stretched!!
I need a teddy bear today unca. Or a hug. A hug would do nicely. A nice big long bear hug. Yeah.
Shame I’ve no one to give me one. My depressing day has just gotten even more depressing. :sigh:
E.
Here’s a biggggggggggggggggggggggggggg huggggggggggggggggggg E!!!
