  • BUCKET LIST # 17 – with a Temp Agency in California…

  • ADDICTED TO PAIN KILLERS

    We are addicted to Pain killers. But we trust the doctor prescribing us meds, encouraged by Pharma reps, endorsed by commission and bonus – even if there is scientific study pending on drug interaction. (No, this is not about Covid vaccines!!)

  • THINK BEFORE YOU SPEAK; MEDITATE
