Forgive me for being skeptical, but I just got this in my email inbox, sponsored by WebMD and our friends at the the US Department of Health and Human Services.

So you get a cheap free FitBit and your biological and medical data is uploaded to who, where? 

Hmmm.   Huh?

ever since I switched my mom's mailing address to my house address over 3 years ago and now that she passed in January,  the past 3 years or so near daily I get a phone call from someone asking me about medicare or other insurance.  First question they ask me is 'how old are you?'  I reply back with a smarty answer of something like 192.  CLICK,  they hang up on me. 

How these companies get the info. that someone supposedly over age 65 (me 52) lives at my house just by changing addresses for mailing purposes 3 years ago stumps me.

  After Bonnie's mother died , we had many phone calls. She is dead , can you say dead.  tickedoff
 It got to the point where I said she had a change of address. I gave them the address and to a cemetery in Wisconsin.  Does she take phone calls?  Yes , I gave the number and said to ask for grave site 722.
  We never got another call from them.  2funny

Someone somewhere thinks you must be a black man or woman?

Well, it's really none of your damn business if I identify as a black woman.  Bigot!
