I wanted to tell a little health insurance story I heard the other day...
My friend just got a $9,000 bill from the hospital. And that was just for all the diagnostic tests to look for kidney stones. :eek:
But it's okay - because she has great insurance from her work - one of those fabulous 80/20 PPO plans with $1,000 deductible.
So that means she only has to pay $2,600.00 out of her own pocket ! :eek:
So people have to remember that health insurance doesn't mean you're not going to have any bills to pay!
Unless you are playing school sports like water polo or live in Europe :D Then they cover it all for you.

It is for the love of the sport.
God bless you Doug for the thought, ability and perserverance to allow your wife to nuture ya'lls kids (can't get rid of the southern talk;) )
Thanks for the input. Wow! Twelve at the Nationals. I want to see the next one. There is a lot of money out there in racing. Unfortunately it goes the wrong way. But what can a whole summer of driving a jet ski do to your soul than a couple of heats in a 500 or 700 hydro?:D I know you got the bug. Congrats & tell Rex & Barb hi for me.

Wayne, I totally agree that there is nothing like the rush in this racing. But it still comes down to the fact that we are not getting new blood into the Capsule class. I just think there is not enough reward to draw people into our sport. I hope I am wrong but that is how I see it. And yes you are right, 12 was a good number for the Capsules. Almost makes me wish I was on the bank watching. It is supposed to be on some satalite channel this fall. Will let you know when we find out when. I will tell mom and dad you said hi. Look forward to seeing you next year at Depue. Hopefully we will have another full field of Capsules.
