From the U.S: Senate to the ER--follow up call from our favorite doctor :-)

This morning, my cell phone rang. "Private number" OK. I picked up.

The voice on the other end said, "This is the U.S Capitol letting you know that you have a nine gazillion dollar bill on the way for your ambulance ride in Washington last week."

I was laughing for a while before I said, "Hi, Howard."

Like him or not, but the good Doctor/Governor still does have a wicked sense of humor

After all, everyone knows that if an ambulance ride is within the same city, they don't bill a cent over eight gazillion dollars.
