Get off my LAWN! "Grumpy Old Farts"

I used to carry Medigap, but a rep at USAA turned me on to Humana's Honor PPO. It's designed for vets who get their primary care through the VA like I do. My disability rating is only 30%, so I'm in tier 2, but I've never had a problem getting any kind of service or appointment. I'm not only saving the >$200/month I was spending on Medigap, but I'm also getting something like a $50/month rebate on my Part B Social Security deduction, so I wound up saving almost $300/month. Worth a check-out.

Veterans, Add Medicare to Your VA Benefits - Humana

Hey, thanks for this! :)
 
Fortunately, UPS is working today. The GOF part? Welp, my new PreSonus 1810c was on the vehicle and out for delivery last Friday. And then for some reason got a Customs Hold slapped on it (for a US product bought from a US company on Amazon US, shipped from Michigan to Arizona; go figure). At least I should have it late today.
 
VA says I got nothing service-connected and too much assets, plus Medicare, so my "priority" is down around...maybe next Millenium? S'awright, though...Medicare has done me so well I don't even carry any supplements. When I had a triple bypass three years ago, the hospital plus meds etc billed out right at $250,000. My out of pocket was a touch under $3,000.
 
Pretty cool and a little disturbing at the same time but also a lot of potential for practical uses like an assistant to a handicapped person.

"I'll be baack" The original scared the crap out of me the first time I saw it. Still gives me the creeps a little bit but I have all of them on DVD or BluRay and have watched them a number of times. It's about time for another Terminator binge watch!

Then there is the "uncanny valley". Really creeped out by some of this.

Maybe it's a Customary Hold. The 1810C is a nice full featured box. Let us know what your impressions are once you've used it.
 
Here we are again!
