Captain's Log 297905.6268-ish

LOL. We think we’re funny around this joint. Now everyone is on the Stardate band wagon. 

Denice thinks she’s really funny – “Make it so, Number One.”

I’m still doing the Fernley layout, and the girls are almost done with the Fallon layout and someone just realized I hadn’t written this yet. I had a really good idea a few days ago for the Captain’s Log and wrote a note somewhere. 

Found it!

What I was thinking about was ceremony. Standing on ceremony. I’ve been in a lot of meetings lately. Actually, I may have written about this once before over the past six years. It’s a feeling that comes over you when you’re in a public meeting and our elected officials start with the Pledge of Allegiance. Then there’s the minutes and the treasurer’s report. And pictures on the wall of the ones who came before.

The concept of accountability. Our civic customs. It makes me proud and a little bit humble. 

“Patriotism swells in the heart of the American Bear.”

Name that movie. 

No one around here knows what I’m talking about, so I was going to look it up and play it for them, but I’ve been chastised severely. “No squirrels.” 

Focus man. 

This reminds me of back in the day where we had a song for every situation and we saved them all in The Fallon Post playlist on Spotify. The other day I walked in the office and somebody said, “Guess Who’s Back” and of course I broke into song. 

We had to look it up – who knew I knew an Eminem song. 

But don’t go listen to it unless you choose the clean version, sorry if you did. 

Now we’re rocking out. 

My dream has always been to have an office on Maine Street full of all my friends where we get to work together to do something meaningful and change the world, but also have a ton of fun and everyone gets to do the thing they’re best at or that they love the most. And here we are. How lucky are we?!?!

So, while we hang out together and move mountains, we’ll still be right here…

…Keeping you Posted.

Rach.

We reached out to the writer/submitter and got this info back...hope it's helpful. PBM: Pharmacy Benefit Managers are pharmacies that are owned by insurance companies. (CVS is one.) They negotiate with drug makers to get reduced pricing for medications, but they historically have not passed along those savings to patients. https://www.ftc.gov/system/files/ftc_gov/pdf/pharmacy-benefit-managers-staff-report.pdf MFN: Most Favored Nation pricing is a policy that means a country agrees to offer the same trade concessions (like tariffs or price reductions) to all member nations of the World Trade Organization (WTO). When applied to pharmaceuticals, it could disrupt global access, deter innovation, and obscure the deeper systemic issues in American health care. https://petrieflom.law.harvard.edu/2025/05/22/the-global-risks-of-americas-most-favored-nation-drug-pricing-policy/Comment publication date: 6/23/25, 7:47 AMComment source: L E T T E R TO THE EDITOR
