Perhaps I should learn to control my temper more
Been watching Sicko and am getting more and more pissed off each minute. I have to take it in small pieces--if I try to watch it all at once, my blood pressure is never going to go down. Thank goodness I have a chance to see it before I have a chance to see it, if you KWIM. I told my SIL and her sister that they MUST see it. She knows about some of the scenes in it because MM has been interviewed on a wide variety of shows, and talked about a lot of the film. My SIL said it looks like a lot of people were "mad at him" now--a distinction that MM himself must actually be pleased about--if they weren't mad at him, I'd be worried.

3. Oh, no problem
But I just get too mad to be effective. I've lived on both sides of the issue and my temper makes me apoplectic, when I can't function. There is also a certain amount of paralysis that comes when you are faced with overwhelming odds. And my own health right now leaves me unable to do more than I can.

5. I found keeping my temper under control was my best bet.
I do not think you are grow up unless you can control your self. I think yelling and screaming grow-ups are pretty silly. You can get mad but all under control please. Who knows if I am right but it is just how I feel.

2. After the hell I've been through with the American Healthcare System
I don't think anything can piss me off more than that. I could die for all my doctors care.

6. I watched the first half
and I was screaming so loud at the pinheads in Congress and in the lobbyist companies that I was scaring the cat.

Maybe the rest later...
