Message	I see more and more of those aweful ambulance chasing lawyer ads on TV. There are too many people out there that are just waiting for any little opportunity to take someone to court in hopes of getting money. Like that person that sued McDonalds becuase they got burnt by their hot coffee. Personally, I'd be pissed if I got coffee that WASN'T hot. Drug companies charge so much for a specific drug because, as I understand it, they only have a few years to try and earn some of their investment back before it becomes available for manufacture as a "generic". -------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------- Conversation between my sister and my wife (shortly before we got married): Wife: "You know, sometimes I think he loves that Z more than he does me." Sister: "He probably does, and as long as you're okay with that, everything will be fine."
