Gee, I’m not sure why I didn’t catch on to this earlier – it could be the brain-washing liquid sloshing around in my mind, but Molly brought up an important point on small increases on hospital fees. That was when the eureka moment unburied itself from the heap of nonsense, and leapt into my mind [...]
