Pedant here - only 1 year of Biden so far.

  Depends how much money one has. It is all relative.   Unless you plan on taking yours with you.

  Didn't you say you had yours in the U.S.?   I've found that medical care/procedures are never the same here. Usually better, BTW.   I've only met with the anesthesiologist when I had surgeries that needed general anesthesia, not twilight sleep for coloscopies, upper GI's etc. 

I was being serious. There are many things that I just don't get.   Wasn't being sarcastic (as usual).

  And don't care to try.   I leave all of that stuff to more brilliant people like yourself.

  Are you referring to the twilight sleep they put you in for a coloscopy? Everyone wakes up 10 minutes later. If you don't wake up, they should send you to hospital.

It is also not normal economy to me. I have read a lot about it and Bitcoin, etc. but just can't wrap my frail brain around it.    I have lived without these things for many years and will continue to do so. My regular investments are a big enough gamble for me and they have paid off. Don't want to push my luck nor do I have extra money lying about with which to gamble.  

  Your 18 year old is an adult and can take it if he wants without your encouragement/permission. Maybe he already has.

  What trouble? This has happened more than once.

I understand NTF's even less than I understand Bitcoin.

  Peed in my pants a little laughing while reading this.

How far are you from Dortmund? Would a little train ride not be worth it to get better care?   If it's a problem, you would be excused from work to attend a doctor's appointment.   I'm sorry that you have so few options. 

Many, many flight attendants have been attacked by such people over the last year or so. Alcohol is usually involved. Sometimes, they duct tape the idiot to a seat to keep them under control until landing.

  This has happened 100's of times but usually before take-off where they have to go back to the gate and the maskholes are arrested.
