Cat Forum / Cat Anecdotes / April 2005Help my kitties' owner get $1,000 worth of health insurance free
This is a contest I'm in that would help me get health insurance for the first time in my adult life and I could sure use it, what with paying over $120 a month for drugs that keep me from experiencing chronic chest pain: As you know the Service Employees International Union has got its sights on improving wages and working conditions for Walmart employees. One way they're doing it is through building a network of people they can keep informed when local matters require it, i.e. pickets of stores, boycotts of particular stores, etc. Learn more about Walmart's need to reform how it does business from this link and sign up if you feel any solidarity with Walmart workers and want to keep informed about what is happening in SEIU's campaign. http://factchecker.purpleocean.org/answer/4894168756fcb750f6c393d3397a0f1e/ I'm in the top five for the drawing for $1,000 worth of health insurance, so of course I already have a vested interest in you going to this page. > This is a contest I'm in that would help me get health insurance Before the storm started yesterday I fired up the grill as promised. Brushed a couple of nice white spuds with oil and sprinkled with salt. Covered the grill. After they'd roasted for about an hour I tossed on two bacon-wrapped chuck fillets. The results are here: http://community.webshots.com/photo/74365720/315623157QzxlnP Jill >> This is a contest I'm in that would help me get health insurance > [quoted text clipped - 6 lines] > > Jill calaf has posted a couple of times here on cat-related subjects.

As an American without health insurance, I can relate. But with the cost of medical care, $1000 won't really go far in paying medical bills. Trust me, I know. Persia's surgical bill alone last year was $900. Quintuple that if it had been ME having bladder surgery. Anyway, I apologize if I took it the wrong way. But the steak and taters were good and I gave Persia a teeny bit of the steak :) Jill > Perhaps I'd have looked at it differently with an OT in the subject line or > if the subject was less spam-sounding. What else could it have BEEN but spam? Anyone who posts pleas to a newsgroup asking for their assistance to "win" something is a spammer by definition (or maybe just a clueless dupe - some people ARE that stupid). Same goes with requests for financial assistance. Plenty of people on this group seem to be unemployed at the moment, and certainly asking if any of us know of any jobs in their field is legitimate. (However, I haven't noticed anyone asking his/her fellow posters for plain hard cash, have you?)
