BTW, that $5K bill — send it to your medical insurance company (the one you married that chick to get). Any permanent full time job worth having in most fields comes with hospitalization coverage (usually at a highly reduced premium conveniently deducted from your bi-weekly paycheck). You will have a deductible but it should be around $500-$1K rather than the $5K the hospital is billing you for. I know this is getting rare, but I even have “supplemental” insurance as part of my retirement package (I am on Medicare and I am retired). When you and your “wife” retire, I would look into it, whether your “wife’s” company offers a plan or you have to get the AARP version.

For those that are wondering, they really don’t know exactly why Bell’s Palsy hits but they do know that if you are over-worked, filled with stress and have the flu or a cold, you open yourself up to the possibility of your body shutting down. My advice for all to avoid Bell’s Palsy is to relax, watch a good X-Play comedy and enjoy life. Good luck Mike I am sure you will be fine.

So how many “why the long face” jokes have been cracked at your expense so far?
