It’s boggling to me that the Obamacare law says that insurance companies can’t kick kids off their parents’ insurance plans until they turn 26, UNLESS you have Tricare, the government’s insurance plan for the military. With Tricare, child dependents get excluded from the program as soon as they turn 21, unless they are full-time students and then the plan is extended to 23.

My dad’s change of command ceremony was today, he passed command of the battalion over to the next lieutenant colonel. The ceremony was up on a hill and the wind was incredible and, during the ceremony, one of the marine’s hats blew off but he couldn’t do anything without breaking rank. Without a…

The ceremony was up on a hill and the wind was incredible and, during the ceremony, one of the marine’s hats blew off but he couldn’t do anything without breaking rank. Without a pause, my dad ran over in the middle, put the marine’s hat back on, and patted him on the back.

I can hear the Frozen soundtrack blaring from my brother’s room next door as he studies and I’m cracking up.
He’s a sixteen-year-old, 6'4" football player.
My mom and I were watching the news and she was also looking at housing floor plans but when the President came on the TV she said, “That’s terrible. He’s an awful kitchen.”
“What makes a college student pull down [a statue of Lenin]? … What happened to Ukraine the last time the Russians took it? … [Stalin] killed between 6 and 8 million people in one year. Hitler wasn’t that efficient…. That’s why they did it. They know that the Soviet Union and Russia are a death machine.”—Glenn Beck, “The Glenn Beck Program” (3/3/2014)
