MIDVALE, Utah -- A Utah woman says an insurance snag left her without a portion of her skull for months.

Briana Lane went almost four months with nearly half of her skull sitting in a hospital freezer following surgery to save her life after a car accident.

The hospital didn't initially consider the second surgery an emergency, and paperwork between it and Medicaid got held up.

Lane said the months she spent living at home without a portion of her skull were excruciating. Her skull finally was replaced on April 30.

Lane said she had contacted a television station, and all of a sudden, she was in line for the surgery.

Reasons I'm Not Going to Say a Word:

A. Sometimes, for form's sake, you've just got to pass up a straight line because it's too easy

B. I still have hopes of a sex life.

C. Opening my mouth might get me hurt

Yeah, but you're forgetting that, just like you've got to adjust human years to cat-years, you've got to adjust male-words to female words. In context, 43 male-words barely counts as clearing the phlegm from my throat...

:beer:



Not that it's relevant or anyting, but just how sure are you that if, say, I didn't just insult all our she-male members but put some effort into it because I'm a smartass, that they couldn't breach this site's security and obtain my actual name and/or location?

No amount of groveling will change anything, dude.


Hi y&#39;all&#33;&#33; My hubby brought his laptop, but I don&#39;t think our next hotel has net access, so this may be my final post till the 13th.

Somebody who knows how- quick install a count-down clock.

We&#39;ve got 8 days to mouth-off before she gets back, and if we flood the board with innocent topics & posts on the last day she&#39;ll never think to look back far enough to catch us&#33;

Bedknobs, and posies, and whiskies on kittens.

They&#39;re all real annoying, but we, being enormously sensitive males, didn&#39;t want to complain about them while you were around lest you mistake our annoyance for misogyny.

But, wouldn&#39;t you know it, you got back early and caught us.

Dear me.







(shhhh, I think she bought it)
