Tom the Dancing Bug by Ruben Bolling Chagrin Falls "Fixing A Site" Man: Hey, the Obamacare website is working perfectly now! Woman: Who did they get to fix it? Man: I don't know, but they did a great job. It's super fast, and easy to use! Man: Let's see...number of family members...Wow, it's all already filled in for me! Birth dates and everything! Man: This is weird. It's not letting me enter you as a non-smoker! You haven't had a cigarette in years! Man: How did the site know to factor in my you-know-what-intimate-time prescription?! Woman: And what does it mean...I'm going to be on antidepressants next year? Man: Hmmm...What if I had a higher deductible...GOSH! The answer just showed up on the screen! Woman: And...a reminder to change my employment status in 8 months? Man: Well, we're done! Easy! They must have been desperate to find someone really great at handling huge amounts of data. Because whoever they got NAILED IT! Drone: THANK YOU. Man: Credit where credit is due. Woman: Um...how about a clue about what's going to happen next year? The End

The look on her face captured the “non-non-smoker” guilt perfectly. My mom threatened me with torture and a near death experience if I ever told my dad. (50 years ago)

Guess they turned the ACA enrollment over to the NSA. Would have done it sooner, but didn’t want to give away how well they do it.
