Frog Applause by Teresa Burritt for April 26, 2016

“We must consider people not as patients and as fellow humans, but as consumers of medical products. Treatments must be safe, efficacious and priced to support the research, development and deployment of treatment. The infrastructure to maintain the availability of treatment must be our first concern.”(Nobody, to my knowledge, has ever said that. I just make things up as I go along.)

To get to the heart of this problem one must peel away the red tape.

Love means laughing for no reason when you aren’t holding a weapon or watching some horrific accident take place.Laughing for no reason under either of those two circumstances is perfectly ordinary.

Man… that was lame…[lame applause is heard in the distance]

I’d go a little easy on Josh this time. I think the comic was not meant to make us laugh. Possible?
