Ginzgerg, Goldberg and Band-Aids

Why I'm blogging at 4:30 AM

Thank God these were only a bad dream, and could never really happen ...  “ Austin ER’s got 2,678 visits from 9 people over 6 years In the past six years, eight people from Austin and one from Luling racked up 2,678 emergency room visits in Central Texas, costing hospitals, taxpayers and others $3 million, according to a report from a nonprofit made up of hospitals and other providers that care for the uninsured and low-income Central Texans.
