This Says It All About North Dakota

Sent to me by Greg, link here, the story about the construction worker whose skull/brain was impaled with a 3.25 inch nail:
"Leave it in, it'll rust, and you'll die of infection. Pull it out and you'll bleed to death."

"Or you can go to St Paul."

"So we took the St Paul option, Luptak said. "Never got any painkiller -- didn't need it, didn't feel anything."
Something tells me the HMO would not have paid for the painkiller anyway.
