I awoke this morning with a swollen jaw.

I looked in the mirror and thought to myself, damn!

An infected tooth.

I drove to the medical clinic.

“I need a prescription for antibiotics”, I said.

“Have you been here before?” she asked.

“No, I don’t see doctors as a rule,” I answered.

“Do you have a health card?” she asked.

“No, but my name should be in the system somewhere.”

“I can’t do that,” she replied.

“I’ll pay cash,” I offered, “It’s only a prescription.”

“I can’t do that.”

I went to a pharmacy and they couldn’t help me.  “Are dog antibiotics the same as people antibiotics?” I asked.

She pulled out some pills, “I don’t know,” she said, “what color are they?”

“Same color as those,” I said.

Since I started taking antibiotics that was given for my dogs, I think the swelling is starting to go down.

That’s what happens when Big Brother controls medicine to the point it does.
