Just a quick reminder. I will be speaking with Jay Ackroyd tonight on Virtually Speaking at 9:00pm Eastern time.
We are looking forward to talking about the following:
- Status report on the enrollment stituation (preview — it’s good and things are working well)
- Shopping for health insurance — why is it complex and what can be done to simplify things
- Cost curves
- What’s next for health insurance — see my post yesterday on how not being stupid is brilliant policy
I enjoyed speaking with Jay last year, and I am looking forward to speaking with him tonight. You should listen in.

Good luck. All good topics.
ETA: maybe we could do a liveblog during your appearance? Would be cool for those who can’t listen in real time …

@Elizabelle: I’ll try to keep a liveblog thread open, but I am limited in my multi-tasking abilities.
Elizabelle
Maybe just put up a blogpost and your loyal listeners can type and comment away as you speak? Does not have to be “liveblog” per se … normal thread will be fine. You know it will have some music links and maybe a pet anecdote in it. Per usual.

My oldest is performing tonight at 7:00 so I don’t know if we will be back in time for me to hear your interview. Will it be recorded?

@MomSense: Oh Christopher Walken. Now my niece will love this (years from now). Heck I know every word to Frozen. Singing it right with her. All six of her.

I can’t wait until she is older. Hey here is some Pulp Fiction kid what do you think of that?
raven
@Tommy: Those commie rats.

@raven: Oh and my favorite thing, True Romance:

@raven:
That was great. I will have to remember to watch it with my youngest.
I did like the Robin Williams as Pan, too.

From previous thread: Mashable has a screen capture of the St Louis County police Facebook page and tweet concerning the death of 12 year old Tamir Rice. Here’s the tweet:
The FB link is a longer read complete with pictures. Of course, the popo (as my daughter calls them) are claiming that someone hacked both their FB page and twitter account. They are “investigating”.

Richard, I know politics is not your thing but wonder if you’ve seen the op-ed at the NYTimes by Thomas B. Edsall titled: “Is Obamacare Destroying the Democratic Party?” I swear that ‘s the exact title. I didn’t use one of my 10 free clicks at the Times to see if the piece lived up to its title. Plus I’m not really a fan of Mr. Edsall.
Ooops, I just checked his bio on google and he is truly a conservative. I shuda known.
