Their mission is to raise revenue. Justice is not part of the equation, so I sincerely doubt more budget for staff would decrease spurious notices. It would probably result in more! : )

I fought one for so long (two years) that the ACA went into effect and what they were fighting was then pulled into preventative care and I think they just wrote it off or something. They eventually gave up and stopped trying to bill me - the hospital AND insurance. So I think I won.

75th Anniversary of the D-Day invasion today. Was at Utah Beach for the 50th Anniversary 25 years ago with my dad who had landed there June 11, 1944.
Can't believe that was 25 years ago already.

I would love to see that someday. Something about WWII and D-Day that just fascinates me.
Former DIL made ticket arrangements for our granddaughter (who has been staying with us for a few days). We are putting her on a plane to Virginia in a little bit. She chose a 6.30a flight. We're 40 minutes from the airport. Granddaughter is not pleased to be rousted from bed this early. Neither is grandmother...
I believe her full name is Moon Unit Zappa.
Athos, you are on a roll! Go on with your bad self!
My dad was in the Pacific theater. He was part of the naval force that took Okinawa.75th Anniversary of the D-Day invasion today. Was at Utah Beach for the 50th Anniversary 25 years ago with my dad who had landed there June 11, 1944.

He described that to me in the middle of the night in the hospital. He jumped out of bed and grabbed my notebook and pen. I had no idea where this was going when he started drawing and then I realized he was going to start talking about the war. He never talked about battles before. So he explained how it all went down in great detail, then got back in bed and went back to sleep.
Okinawa was the last ocean battle. After that, the last obstacle was Japan itself. Truman and the military brass decided a conventional battle would cost too many lives - on both sides - and so the famous decision to drop Little Boy and Fat Man.
I don't even take the 8:00 because you're still getting up at crazy dark o'clock especially if international.
The crazy thing is that while the Allied forces were staging the largest amphibious landing in history in Normandy, they had another amphibious force 71,000 men strong en route to Saipan for another amphibious assault.75th Anniversary of the D-Day invasion today.
