A possible photography contest in the works

I want to know from any pro or amateur photogs out there if they would be willing to support a site to have monthly photo contests? The prizes might start out small but if I get enough support, this could be really cool. Let me know please.

New ways to get hosed by your health care professional

I recently went for a doctors appointment for a routine physical, which according to my insurance plan is covered 100%. Nothing out of pocket. No co-pay, nothing. If you believe that I've got a bridge I want to sell you. 4 months after my appointment I received an $80 bill for 20 minutes of the good Doc's time. After repeatedly calling the billing department, I was met with a snotty attitude and a threat of turning the bill over to collections if it didn't get paid. I then contacted my insurance provider and was told to basically suck it up, since the doctors charge was legit.
If you go to a doctor for a routine physical which is supposed to be covered, if the doctor even asks you about ANY type of pre-existing condition you have, you can be billed for it. Even if you don't want to talk about it, you're getting charged. Double check with your insurance provider and ask your doctor to keep the chit chat down to a minimum or face a fee!

Stop raising stamp prices

Maybe if the postal workers did a decent job overall and didn't lose so many packages or actually delivered mail on time, people would use them more, thereby eliminating the extra cost of postage. Hire people who actually want a job and would kill to be able to buy food for their families.....maybe I shouldn't say "kill" and "postal workers" in the same blog message.

Te'o is no victim. He's in on it somehow

You really expect people to believe you when you say your girlfriend died, but you've never met her? I do know a guy who claimed for years to have a girlfriend, but I'm sure that was bogus too. This is lame. Notre Dame choked now you want sympathy. Go away dude!

This is great

One of the funniest pictures I've seen in a long time. I'm just sad I didn't come up with it.

This was painful to watch

I was watching this episode the other night and I felt so bad, but REALLY? Amish people could have figured out the answer to this puzzle for God's sake!

I love stupid people. It makes me feel so much better about myself...

I hope this jackass broke his shoulder.
