...maybe Dinda wanted to update me on her family. Who knows? In any case, I was intrigued. The message said that "Dinda sent you photos on Tagged." Below that message was a link. Under the link it said, "Click Yes if you want to see Dinda's photos, otherwise click No. But you have to click!" Funny, there were no "Yes" or "No" tabs in the e-mail. Below that message it said, "Please respond or Dinda may think you said no :(" The sad face is a strong guilt trip. (See the five websites to avoid...

...thought I declined that absurd request, but somewhere along the line I remember clicking Yes, thinking it was part of the registration process.

...Public Plan. Yes, the House version has a government-run option, which Democrats say would be crucial to holding down costs and to provide competition that would, in President Barack Obama's words, "keep insurance companies honest," but which Republicans say would be a deal-breaker. Still, the House model appears to be far weaker than one described in early drafts of the HELP Committee's legislation. If those early drafts are any indication, the HELP version would look a lot like Medicare, with the rates that it reimburses hospitals, doctors and other health-care providers linked to those paid...
