A Twelvth O.T. Katie Thread.

[hugob00m]

Hi, WillJohn. Thanks for commenting.

A "hit" in more ways than one?

Yeah!

The sound of Katie's spandex-clad behind being spanked is one thing. The sound of her bare bum being spanked would be another.

Each would make its own sound. If they ever perform the song on stage, a bare bum would most likely be banned.

Katie falls foul of another sneaky spanker.

Any excuse... right?

Right. By the way, just as an aside my wife's cardiologist prescribed for her a blood thinner called Eliquis. As an Australian aged pensioner, she gets a month's supply for $7. She was stunned to look at the box and see that in the USA its retail price is $92. How do old people in the USA survive?

It's tough. The government's drug policies don't make much sense here in the U.S. Pharmaceutical companies rely on massive taxpayer subsidies for their resserch and development, but they charge people as if they made the scientific advancements themselves. I think the biggest item in their budget is bribes (excuse me, campaign contributions) that they pay to congress.

Some folks say we should get the government even more involved with subsidies for people who depend on those drugs for theit lives. I'd rather go the other way. Take away their privilege to manufacture and market the drugs exclusively. Make them compete on the open market and see where the prices go.

The Federal government subsidises necessary medicines in Australia. If a patient's cost of medication passes a certain amount during the year the cost is dropped further. We also have a Medicare system where you can attend a Bul Billing doctor who takes only what Medicare pays him. Wealthier people often take out private insurance. My brother just spent six months in hospital after a bad fall and was charged nothing. People going to work pay a small subsidy to Medicare. The idea is that it is better to have a healthy workforce rather than people dying because they cannot afford medicine or medical care.

I have a story for Romantic Spanking Month with six parts, so I'll be starting a little bit early. I'm planning to post the first part this weekend. Here's Kaylyn to tell you a little more about it:

As a small tribute to Overbarrel, I used a couple of my favorite single-panel pictures that he made as framed paintings in Kaylyn's Los Angeles hotel room.

Hi, WillJohn. Thanks for commenting,

I'm not sure about Jack's parents... I hadn't thought about them until now. But Kaylyn and Jack are going to Australia.

About tne Granny part... not yet.

[willjohn]

If they come to Australia I am sure they will drop in on Jack's folks. They seem like a polite couple.

I've got a six-part story that I'm starting now.

It's starring Kaylyn and her fiance, Jack, back on Jack's home turf.

Will the best man get to spank the maid of honour?
