My 2026 Health Insurance Premium Increase
They might phase it out down the road, but any viable plan has to start with employers paying a big chunk since that's how our current system is set up.

Surly kids who can't get into UT
She doesn't want to go to CC. I've never met a CC grad that wasn't a complete prick and they think their school is way better than it really is.

That doesn't look like CO. Did you get rid of the Audi or the Rivian to make room for the Bimmer?

My 2026 Health Insurance Premium Increase
I would imagine any move to Medicare for All would have employers still paying for a lot of it (as well as increased income taxes on everyone), but we can figure that out. Everyone else on earth (peer countries, at least) has figured out how to do this. We can do it, too so people aren't stuck at a job just for insurance, and so people do not go broke because they got hurt or sick. So let's roll all those younger people into Medicare to get the per person costs down.

Ski Season 2025/2026
We've got to figure out how to check trucks for chains like CA does. They cause a lot of problems.

No. The state should make them do that (or put snow tires on the vehicles) but for some reason, they don't. It's on the driver to be prepared. Definitely ask for AWD and look at the tires before accepting the rental, at minimum. And figure out how to get some snow socks or chains if the weather looks dicey.

He's fucking adorable. Looks like a foster fail to me.

Bruce has had TPLO surgery in both back legs. The surgery and recovery is a bitch (especially the first couple of weeks), but he recovered well from both and once you do it, no worries of it happening again. The repaired knee is stronger than the original. There is a high likelihood of needing to do the other leg after the first one, so be ready for that.

I assume you were at the big outdoor market not too far from Hofbrauhaus? Love that market. Munich is a cool city.

My 2026 Health Insurance Premium Increase
We have roughly 100 employees and about half are on our company plan. We managed only a 2.6% increase this year, but we had to switch insurers from UHC to Aetna to do that. Would have been 11% if we stuck with UHC. We offer 4 different plans (2 traditional PPOs and 2 high deductible plans). Premiums for a family cost between $2,776-$3,412 per month (before we pay the employer portion) for deductibles from $1,500 for individuals to $7,000 family deductibles on the cheaper high deductible plan. We have good insurance but it's absurdly expensive. Healthcare costs are completely out of control in this country. There is no reason for healthcare to be tied to employment and there is no reason we can't figure out how to get everyone on Medicare (other than big, fat campaign contributions from the healthcare companies).

Acquaint yourself with the traction laws if you're coming to CO. Don't drive up I70 unprepared, please. It applies to everyone on the road. https://www.codot.gov/travel/winter-driving/tractionlaw
