Scenario: My heart and Bitcoin

[headlite]

Imagine this!
I have a bad heart.  As a new member of the Obama Club of Medicine, I am denied care for an irregular heart-beat because I have used too much healthcare so far this year according to my project needs for the months ahead.  Damn!  Oh, I am too old also.  Fare enough.  My heart is skipping away like a 6 year old little girl playing hop-scotch.  I go by my cardiologist office and he  agree's I need to be defibrillated.  "Sit down headlite, what  you got in your pocket?"  "All I have is these five Bitcoins on a piece of paper."  "I tell you what, my Mother-In-Law lives in Cuba and needs a new rice cooker."  Lets say we defibrillate you and you give me BTC 0.67 of one of those Bitcoins to send to my Mother-In-Law? "You got a deal."  "Send her my Love!  My wife was so happy when she heard my made-up story she baked me cookies.  The first in a series of tall Bitcoin tales.
Oh, I don' think labor is taxed!

(Someone of my ilk could go on forever. )
