Otherwise you'll get the "you need a (insert procedure) asap" which translated means, "I have a boat payment due"

Bullshit.

One of my brother’s a Dentist and a wooden boat nut too!

He is an Eagle Scout that has a barn full of beautiful old wood runabouts.

He would never do anything to dishonor the profession or his name.

BTW...he builds Cedar strip canoes and kayaks for the local youth organizations and does a lot of the wood resto on the runabouts himself so...

Do not paint with such a broad stroke please!

I had a doctor talk to me about a sleep survey. I wasn’t interested. He mentioned it more enthusiastically each time, and finally he mentioned that he might have to report me to DMV as someone who might be susceptible to falling asleep at the wheel.

I fired him that day, and reported it to a couple of pther doctors I was seeing. It turns out that this guy’s wife had an interest in the outfit that did sleep studies.

Luckily, I have enough willpower to control the driving ambition that rages within me.

When you had the votes, we did things your way. Now, we have the votes and you will be doing things our way. This lesson in political reality from Lyndon B. Johnson

"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." - Justice Janice Rogers Brown

When I filled out the initial paperwork for the Medical group/Dr's I am going to now there was a question on the form about guns in my house I left it blank and it has never again been mentioned. However this type of meddling is going several steps too far. As someone else mentioned with Dental Ins. practically non-existant I would be real picky about who I spent it with. This would surely be the type I would avoid like the plague.
