[Magdalen] Shingles update

[Jay Weigel]

I have Medicare. No supplement at the moment, mostly because I can't find a
website that will let me compare and decide for myself; they all want me to
talk to some damn insurance agent and I will NOT do that. I hate them and
just won't do it. Why can't I look at the specs and make up my own mind?
