Eleanor Golightly absolutely loves Medicare! The sweet, 86 year-old,
widowed grandmother thinks it is wonderful! She perks up and smiles
every time someone mentions the word. Mrs. Golightly sees doctors all the
time, and she never pays a thing! She gets her eyes checked three times a
year, mostly because her eye doctor's office is next door to a lovely
antique store. And she absolutely loves antiques. Eleanor gets her teeth
cleaned six times a year. (She has this thing against flossing.)
|
Mrs. Golightly's neighbor, Helen Schmudly, loves Medicare, too. She saw
those ads on TV that promised a personal scooter.... for free! ("The
power chair will be paid in full." -- watch the ad, on the right.) Helen is
not incapacitated. She is about 60 pounds overweight, and at age 72, she
has some trouble getting around. Sure enough; Helen called and got her
scooter. "And it didn't cost me a dime!"

The BBHQ Feature Album
is "Old Friends Live on Stage (Deluxe Edition) (2 CD/1 DVD),"
by Simon & Garfunkel. If you were fortunate enough to see them in concert
in 2003, I do not have to sell you. The concert was terrific! This
album collection includes 55 songs, plus their new recording, "Citizen of
the Planet," and one of the songs sung by the Everly Brothers during the
concert. The DVD was recorded during their concert in Madison
Square Garden in 2003. For any S&G fan, this is a
must have! But then, you knew that already, didn't you?

The BBHQ Feature Book is
"The 5000 Year Leap," by
W. Cleon Skousen. The title does not
adequately identify the content, though the concept of the 5,000 year
leap is astounding. The subtitle, Principles of Freedom 101, is
much more applicable to the subject. This book carefully and clearly
summarizes the thinking of the brilliant founding fathers of our country,
the ideas behind the "miracle that changed the world."
