So far, so good with the feed!
And sorry for the GJB-lessness in this episode. The winner was *drumrolldrumrolldrumroll*
Rhettro! with his guess of 103 comments on the “I have no idea. . . ” thread. That was closer than the predictions of 210 and 123.
Though Vanamonde also gets some kinda credit for guessing 400-something on the original comments page, before the server blew up.
OK – someone can claim True Firsties now.
Sorry everyone; I wonder if we’re in the clear now.
Goodnight mush.

Andtrue secondies! Won’t be able to listen to the new dp till I get back from work.
Deadpan appear to be available. At least, Itunes has told me it has it. 31:54 seems long enough for an episode.
May the Deadpan be with you.
iTunes tells me it is 32:09.
Plus the 007 is now up as well.
Morning Pan!
Man, I cringed at the stupidity of the girls that guy met on his travels. That was Finnish and what she said was “Expressionless is better”
So, I have a question for my US friends. You’re country basically spends an entire year gearing up to the election. You have these major primaries to decide who will run in the election for each party, then you have the election campaign itself.
My question is – during this year long process where a leader is picked, does any work get done in parliament? Especially during a year when someone is running for re-election. It seems to me, so much time is spent trying to get into the system, no one is running the system.
I know in Canada, this is often a complaint, even though we usually only have a couple of months of “electioneering”.
Just a thought.
No TEB, no work gets done during the election year. But that actually works out pretty well for us Americans because it means that they aren’t causing anyone harm. LOL
Good show Jack, really good contributions. I must confess that I am a big fan of the Introbabble, so please don’t cut down it’s length. :)
Leann’s contributions have left me hot and bothered, good job all around.
Nice cabinet contents, but you neglected to give Buckley’s it’s full credit for us Americans. I think most don’t know of this magical syrup nor its unique advertising campaign…
morning new pan!
Well I would have to question the implication that our government does any work on non-election years ;)
Haven’t listened to the show yet, but I have to 2nd Rhettro’s vote- intro and outro babble are my favorite parts of Deadpan. I love everyones contributions, but lets face it… Jack is why I listen. I like Jack’s “parts” *swoooooon* ;) LOL
I haven’t Jack swooned in a long time.
Got lots o’ retouching work this morning, so of course I have done everything but work so far. I am a master procrastinator.
No Andrea, I put the “pro” in procrastination. LOL
Yep, the babble is good, more babble better. Love everyone’s content as well.

When channels go off the air in the Great White North, do they play “O, Canada?”
Rhett, I think so. The only channel that ends is CBC all other channels are 24 hours. Even so, I’m never awake late enough to know what is played when they go off air.
ok Rhett you can have the title ;)

Rhett, thanks for your babble appreciation. And you too, Dre! Thanks for swooning at my parts too. (don’t sigh!)
Thanks for the happy dance, Amy.
I think the Roscoe thing came across as a bit partisan. I try not to favor either side. Really —– under this current 2-party control system, presidential candidates ought to be required to choose a VP running mate from the opposing party.
I don’t think channels go off the air anymore. They just run infomercials overnight.

CUCKOOS NEST
As I was a walking one morning in May
I met a pretty fair maid and unto her did say
I’ll tell you me mind, it’s for love I am inclined
An me inclination lies in your cuckoo’s nest
Some like a girl who is pretty in the face
and some like a girl who is slender in the waist
But give me a girl who will wriggle and will twist
At the bottom of the belly lies the cuckoo’s nest
Me darling, says she, I am innocent and young
And I scarcely can believe your false deluding tongue
Yet I see it in your eyes and it fills me with surprise
That your inclination lies in me cuckoo’s nest
me darling, says me, if you can see it in me eyes
Then think of it as fondness and do not be surprised
For I live you me dear and I’ll marry you I swear
If you’ll let me clap my hand on your cuckoo’s nest
Me darling, says she, I can do no such thing
For me mother often told me it was committing sin
Me maidenhead to lose and me sex to be abused
So have no more to do with me cuckoo’s nest
Me darling, says me, it’s not committing sin
But common sense should tell you it is a pleasing thing
For you were brought into this world to increase and do your best
And to help a man to heaven in your cuckoo’s nest
Me darling, says she, I cannot you deny
For you’ve surely won my heart by the rolling of your eye
Yet I see it in your eyes that your courage is surprised
So gently lift your hand into me cuckoo’s nest
This couple they got married and soon they went to bed
And now this pretty fair maid has lost her maidenhead
In a small country cottage they increase and do their best
And he often claps his hand on her cuckoo’s nest

He found that tadalafil, the active ingredient in Cialis tablets, improved breathing in a thin atmosphere.
An army spokeswoman said there were no plans to use any such drug.
A statement added the phenomenon of chronic oxygen starvation experienced by mountaineers and the immediate oxygen starvation which pilots suffer at high altitude are different

While I admit that’s pretty cool, I think I’d be happy just being able to afford such a system.
I think it’s ridiculous and hideous.
But you wouldn’t turn it down if someone offered it to you :D
TEB on your earlier question from 4 years working for Congress yes a lot does get done those years. In fact it’s one of the largest years legislatively to get work done and try to look good for elections. The off years actually have a slower pace in general terms. As for the nature of what passes a more bipartisan bill on a major issue is likely to pass in an election year so they accomplished something important. Welfare reform comes to mind in 96 as a big bill in an election year, HIPAA is another example from the same year.
Next point it’s Congress not parliament, parliamentary systems have the leader of the government, ours is picked seperately. Key difference. Long term impact is the elected leader draws more strength or weakness from the legislative body in the policy setting process in a parliamentary system. The US more devided system allows in theory for greater oversight of the executive. (remember I said in theory not practice people ;) )
Your poli sci lesson for the day….
Set my comments free….
I’m reminded of that Men at Work song…”Are you trying to tempt me?”
Don’t think I would appreciate that sound system. I’m quite happy using a 5.1 sound system for use with my 360 that cost less than 50 quid.
That was part of the lyrics, the song is called Land Down Under.
TEB: Nope, I wouldn’t refuse and then I’d sell most of if and have almost $6M! :)
Oh one other thing, when I say it’s busier election year I mean it’s a rushed pace because they cram as much work as possible into the work week and then head home on the weekends to compaign. The Congressional session often tries to finish the work sessions by election day on the first Tuesday of Novemeber (actually finish by mid-October if they can) so that means the normal work all needs to be done with two less months in the work year.
The other factor that makes it busy is some of the Member’s DC staff will take vacation time to go work in the district on campaigns or do their daily work out in the district during the last month before an election. That way they can volunteer for the campaign. It’s also not uncommon for DC staff to go to a sympathetic PAC or the party’s building to help work the phones for the boss in the time leading to an election. So it’s not just just the everyday workload that is rather intense, but then the extra side work that appears in election years.
While the campaign side work may sound harsh, if your boss doesn’t get reelected you lose your job too, so there is some motivation there for you. I know a guy who has lost three jobs to elections, but he is still there fighting for what he thinks is right. This is a guy with a family with two kids, that takes some guts. It’s one thing to it in your 20s single, but as a family man with morgage I have a hellova lot of respect for the guy.

There are problems with both the Canadian and US health care systems.
Makes you rethink Michael Moore’s “Sicko”.
Well, in any big system it’s very easy to cherry-pick bad examples.
well of course there are problems with both, but the dude had a grade 2 astrocytoma. That needed to be taken care of immediately. If he was left to flounder in the system that could of easily upgraded into a non contained astrocytoma or worse to a grade 3.
Im all for the Canadian way, as long as emergencies are handled as they should be. That guy needed to be given some kind of priority.
okay sorry to bring the pan down.

Todays Reason To Drink

or I got get naked, which ever works for you :)
Or body shots. ;)

ooo golschlager body shots.. now thats the start of a fun evening…
What was I going to say?
Oh ya, healthcare. I’m not sure I know what is best. On one hand you have O Canada’s healthcare for all, which makes since but it has horrible access times. On the other, you have the USA’s that is readily available but costs go up 25% a year. In the short term I think the US should pass laws that fix costs but overhaul how one needs to see a doctor. For example, 95% of the time the only reason I need to see a doctor is to get refills for on going prescriptions. I’d like the option of being able to get prescriptions like that refilled without his concent by simply filling out an online form that says my health has remained consistant and I deem my treatment effective. That would eliminate a lot of traffic.
Beyond that if the could get a reign on the lawyers and insurance companies, they could then get a reign on medical costs.
Normally, in a free market, things sell for what people will buy them for. Unfortunately, and I don’t have a good remedy for this, health insurance makes it easy for people to pay bills and that ability alone puts pressure to drive costs up. If we outlawed insurance, health costs would be a lot lower, but it doesn’t really help those less fortunate.
I’m really a socialist at heart and a strong believer in free healthcare for everybody, but no system is perfect and the NHS is noway as good as MM makes out in Sicko.
Don’t worry though, I won’t be calling you all comrades and whistling the theme tune to the gameboy version of tetris…
Well said, Comrade! I mean, Van!
I’d be in favor of a unified healthcare system in the U.S. (one has to wonder, between the military, the various levels of government, medicaid, medicare, etc, how much of the population already has some government support for insurance)
What was my thought? Oh, yeah – mandatory monthly weigh-ins and an annual fitness test. You can choose to eat what you like as long as you can pass the physical.
Can’t keep from packing your fat ass? Then you pay extra to help cover your burden on society.
Of course, there’d would need to be some exemptions for the truly disabled, but most of us are in bad shape because we’re too lazy to take care of ourselves.
I think we’d also have to bite the bullet and outlaw tobacco. It can be argued that McDonald’s at least offers energy that your body can use. Tobacco brings only a lot of fucked-uppedness.
Arguing over government paid health care is a bit like arguing over what color of dog poop you want in your front yard. We don’t have a government anymore in this country. We have people that create regulations to enforce laws on corporations. That’s all a government does. If we got national health-care it would be nothing more than a government signed contract with a health-insurance company or group of companies.
Even if we had direct payment of health care by the government the insurance companies would still screw us because in the end the government is powerless to stop corporations.
Well I can write something okay if I’m not half tired and typing it with one hand while laying in my bed.
My donkus to your donkus
You yambag to my yambag.

Good points all around.
If people in your country are traveling abroad for medical treatment —
If people in your country seek treatment for their medical conditions and are forced to wait an unreasonable/dangerous amount of time for any procedure or exam —
and/or if people in your country are going into extreme debt/financial ruin as a result of medical treatment —
then your healthcare system needs fixin’.
Nope, I have the unpopular view on this stuff, and ain’t gonna argue.
But methinks doing this to healthcare would be a bad move.

As much problems as I have with healthcare in this country I think I’m against universal healthcare. Especially Clinton’s plan, where she basically makes it a Federal requirement to have it like auto insurance. What exactly does that solve, other than forcing us to give more money to these guys?
I dunno how to fix healthcare I just know how to bitch about it. I know Leann gave me more info about Sleep Apnea and what to look for in a mask over email than the idiots my insurance company forced me to go through after my diagnosis. I know I have to travel to another state to see a doctor when I get sick, but when that doctor gets stumped on my symptoms he calls me from home on a Sunday night with ideas, as opposed to the corporate owned doctors here in Spokane. I went in with a massive migraine and came out with a perscription for an antipsychotic that actually made me physically violent. And the problem turned out to be a wheat allergy, something detectible with a simple blood test.
I dunno. Some people in the health world deserve medals I think, and others need to be drug out in the street and shot. I dunno that Government regulation is the method to solving that.
I know thats very Un-Democrat of me, and I’m still caucusing for Obama tomorrow, but I consider those seperate issues. I have to trust that when an idea like whatever these guys has is brought to congress, no matter what party is in majority they’ll carefully look it over and consider it before passing it. Thats why we have the system of government we have. As messed up as it is, sometimes its a good thing that things don’t get done. Because by that reasoning at least the bad things CAN’T get through.
Of course I realize the Patriot Act nullifies my whole argument, but hopefully that will be gone soon one way or the other.
I have worked in healthcare for 14 years, and I know that although this would be a good idea on paper, it would be bad in practice.
What the idea would ultimately do would be mostly run good docs out of business because they already have their pay regulated by insurance companies, and let’s face it, they like their paychecks………which means you get quacks to go with your government issued insurance, and/or you will pay OUT THE ASS to go to a decent physician. So basically not much would change, except prices would jump up. :P
And would possibly put allied healthcare folks like me out of a job. Because although your sleep is quite possibly the most important aspect of your general well being and health, the government is already trying their hardest to replace us with computers as it is.
I am not sure what the solution is to all of this, but I can’t help but to think, healthcare is a service not a given.
*ducks under the table*
Just my opinion here….they are like assholes.
See thats what I’m worried about too. Running the good docs and good techs out and replacing them with graduats of Apollo College.
I think the problem is the middle men and lobbyists, the people pumping hundreds of millions of dollars into the pockets of congressmen to get them to pass legislation like Medicare Part D, where its illegal for the government to negotiate with insurance companies. And part of me feels like its these review boards that work for the insurance companies and see this expensive new drug that works 90% better than an over the counter brand, and might actually save lives, but they decide the company won’t cover it because that will save them money.
But still, I’m not seeing where this is a government problem. This is like a corporate values issue invading into otherwise good medical practice.
Granted, there is a lot that could be saved through preventative medicine, and some insurance programs don’t even cover them. But I seem to recall one expert saying that if the government should do anything, it should regulate one basic healthcare coverage that every insurance company provide, and make it easy for everyone to have access to that level of coverage, but have other levels of coverage that people can choose from. And I dunno if that would work either. I just agree with Leann, I think this universal healthcare thing is just a bad idea. I don’t want my doctor being taken off my covered list because the government mandated that I see someone closer to where I live. The Rockwood Clinic here in Spokane, the nurses are all fucking robots and the doctors are flat out idiots who don’t even listen to a word you say, they just prescribe you with the wrongest shit possible. Like my wife had a spider bite that turned into a staph infection, and I took her to an urgent care clinic and from nine feet away the doctor said she was bitten by a hobo spider. Like, Spider EXPERTS couldn’t tell you what kind of spider it is by the bite. They’re morons around here.
All though it does seem inherintly wrong that healthcare has become a “product” in this country, thats basically whats happened, and I don’t see them turning that into anything else. We’re a consumer culture now, and until we become the Roman Empire and throw Democracy out the window thats pretty much how its gonna stay.
You know to clarify, I think what I meant was if insurance companies didn’t spend so much money trying to pump lobyists and congressmen maybe they could take that money and offer better premiums and coverage and still have a better profit margin.
ummm.. well all I was trying to do was show how that poor guy got totally screwed over and how no matter where you live health care sucks ass and that there is no perfect fix in either system. They are black and white. We need a nice gray idea.
and I don’t know about the rest of you but I already pay up the ass for good medical care. I think you would all shit bricks if you saw Hugh’s medical debt. Yeah he got great fucking care but we will be paying for it for the rest of our lives. We might as well go to medical school and cure cancer ourselves, it would cost less.
The thing is… in any sufficiently complex system, like health care, there is no easy fix. People *love* the idea of an easy fix. Put a screw here and everything is better. But life doesn’t work that way.
Everyone knows about gravity. You have two bodies (or planets) that, through gravity, mutually attract each other. Throw a third body in there and you have an unsolvable problem. In other words, things get complicated fast. And no matter what you do, you can’t make them simple again–short of nuking the site from orbit, but that’s beside the point.
The best we can hope for is to intelligently try and improve things. Yes, that will end up fucking some things up, but progress always seems to be a case of two steps forward and one step backwards. Or not.
The current system isn’t perfect. And there is no miracle system out there that we can apply to “fix” things. Heck, there is no such thing as a perfect system. The best we can hope for is to work for a system that succeeds most of the time. And even then, we’ll hear the horror stories of how the system has failed us.

Interesting stuff people. Last post about health care. I think if we could simplify the system of payment we would reduce costs. If we opened up the ability to import drugs from trusted companies we would reduce costs. I haven’t a clue how we would implement said simplification.

Truth be told, I’m an engineer first, which means I want problems solved. At then end of the day, I’m not as concerned with whether the solution comes from the private sector or public. And, if one side has screwed things up, I’m willing to give the other side take a crack at it.
