Things you do not want in the mail

A postcard in the mail from my employer's benefits people that says "2004 is not business as usual. There will be important changes to your health benefits. Watch your mail for a brochure explaining the changes in detail."

No doubt someone said "we have to do this in stages to prepare them".

It's going to be a son of a bitch. We're running 15% a year now with no fix in sight. Time to start reading up on herbal remedies, I don't reckon bush is going to man up and ask for $87B to cover health care increases.
