No, I make too much to get any subsidy

60 grand makes me rich as far as the government is concerned

They're fine with me having to pay 10% of my net for health insurance that doesn't cover even a colonoscopy

My insurance company sent me cologuard or something similar a few years ago, came back fine. It might not detect polyps but it can rule out cancer if you're looking for a cheap alternative.

I don't trust that wouldn't cost me $170 deductible...so I can learn what?  No cancer.  Great.  So what.  Cancer?  Great, so what.  Can't afford to do anything about it either way.

Luigi we need more like you!

I drove ~575 miles today.

Bring on the robot cars.  They can't be worse than humans.

I loathe driving now.

Living here where a car is a must to go anywhere and with things so spread out that's all I do is drive.

Rome

I was coming home from picking up a pizza and an old dude was driving a newer Caddy in front of me.  He was weaving all over the place and driving really slow.  I flashed my lights at him to get his attention and to basically get his dumb ass to straighten out and maintain his lane when he decided to roll his window down and flip me off.  What he didn't realize was there was a cop just behind me on the left who saw what was going on.  I started to slow down a bit more and just as I did the cop went past me and hit his lights.  Whoops.  That's Florida for you.  Old rich pricks (probably drunk) driving like iceholes.  Nice to see one finally catch it for a change.

Last nye daughter was driving us home from my dad's. Some douche in a huge black truck - I'm assuming was maga - swerved into our lane and swiped my daughter's jeep knocking the driver side mirror off. The driver initially stopped then took off. By the time we could turn around they were long gone. Made a police report but couldn't find the mirror cover. Went back in the morning and found it on the side of the road. Buffed the scratches out and reattached the cover. I did a ring alert hoping the douche would see it and at the very least have to look over their shoulder. People are iceholes.

Rome

Was at Lowe's this afternoon with my buddy who's helping me install a door on my Florida room. The clowns at Lowe's gave me a ball park $2,500 for the door which I laughed at on my way out the door.

As we were leaving he gets a call from his daughter who is crying her eyes out.  Turns out his ex-brother in law died of a heart attack this afternoon at 72. 

On our way out to Lowe's he told me that the guy had called him out of the blue yesterday afternoon just to touch base and catch up with him. A half hour later he gets the news that the guy died of a heart attack.  Just wow. 

Life is short, boys.  Never forget that.

For as long as I live I'll never forget that my grandmother died on Christmas Day, her other grandson's birthday. What a lucky bastich he is, now he's got three things to celebrate on the same day. May she burn in hell forever.

The man. The myth. The legend.
