That was syndicated goofball radio host "Dr. Demento". Don't know what ever happened to him but I miss listening to his show. Always had those crazy songs you'd never hear anywhere else!

that's not economy care, that's what we offer as premium service at the hospital!
Seriously, our medical patients have better coverage than most of our insured patients!
we have a police officer paying copayments on his premium of approximately 20% of the daily bill in the intensive care nursery. Right next to his kid, is a illegal alien, getting treated for three weeks, prematurity, free of charge.
National health care for nationals now!
Loved the above analogies!
We got bitched out last week for sending some moms home,since their rooms were needed by patients in labor. These moms get room and meals free as long as their kids are in our nursery, unless we run out of space for patients (rooms are spare patient rooms) and then we can't provide this service until our sensus dies down. So we had a baby boom and had to send all our rooming in moms home for 1 day. You would never believe the garbage they said to us. We were being prejedous for sending them home! We gave crappy care! The next day when the rooms opened up, the pretended we were great and that nothing was ever said!
It cracks me up, we are one of the only northern california hospitals to provide a free rooming in and meals service to moms, on an as availible room status, and these people are jumping down our necks for not giving them a free room and meals, because other patients actualy need them. All on welfare, by the way, not one of the insured patient's mom's compl ained, just the illegals, and unemployeed on welfare!
Give a man a free meals, and he'll line up for more, teach a man to fish and he'll laugh, wanting the free meal!
