Oh yeah it is.  Whatever I'll just pull out cash advance from one card
to pay the min balance on the other one.  Figure I can stay afloat for
another year or two that way.

Disgusting.  People like me who worked through the lockdown just get
the shaft now that I need help.  In hind sight I should have scammed
the 2k like everyone else.

I don't have any left that are designed for chomping.

I pretty much eat mostly soft foods now.  But I do like chicken
and protein.

I assume there is no way off it but I'm not sure.

It's not if you are married.  I mean seriously my wife was recently
disgnosed with a terminal thing (15 years to live) and the meds she's
on lower her imune system to the point if she gets a cold she may need
hospital stay.  My $11.50 an hour is too much, she doesn't qualify for
anything not even benifits.

It's a real kick in the pants when you are an honest working guy and
just get screwed.

 AA> But I digress.. Sorry.  Maybe this should be in _CHAT?

Moved.
