OMG!!! Harry Landers!!!!  I had a violent crush on him as an adolescent in the 60s. Most people watched Ben Casey for Vincent Edwards, but Ted Hoffman (played by Mr Landers) made my heart do flip flops. I took delight in finding roles he played in other series and movies. Still looking and sounding good! Thank you.

Wow! What a production! I will check into more of your videos.

[illwringyourneck]

officially the cheesiest thing I've ever seen.

Just want to use this opportunity to say "Merry Christmas" to you and yours.

Everyone is talking Health Reform and the Bill that emerged from the Senate. Will politics take a break today, December 25? No. See my spin at P1915. And of course the best for 2010.

I looked at the time line and read all your comments. I really appreciate that. I am happy husband and I are still healthy. I feel sorry for some people. Work all your life and worry about getting sick when you should be enjoying life.

I see your point. They have to stop all the millions that go to CEOs. It is like murder.

If this new thing passes, it is uncertain what will happen to private policies. This is my fifth response, but they got separated.

[3slimdog]

Thanks for the information. I appreciate it.

[mdryden02]

Check with your agent.

It is a tough decision.

I hope you can go with the option best for you, if you can afford it.

If you decline medicare, your doctors and hospitals will get much higher payments, as much as 400% higher, in many cases, but you would be responsible for the balance that your ins does not pay. Your private policy is likely to pay many costs that Medicare will not pay.

You would have a hefty bill. If you bought another good secondary policy, to cover what your private ins does not cover--it would be very expensive, I believe.
