A bunch of coupons, possibly from the inside of a Yellow-Pages-ish thing, are currently magnetted to the office refrigerator. Among the ones for "$1 off two Calzones" and "Free Oil Change with Each Set of New Tires" and the like, is a coupon for a buck off of Emergency Contraception (the morning-after pill) at Tapestry Health. Now, I'm very pro-choice and everything, but this strikes me as a little odd. Are they really thinking that a woman, in the midst of the feelings of guilt and recriminations and anger at herself, plus the trepidation of taking the pill iself, which makes you throw up and feel like crap, is going to suddenly remember, Well, at least I can save a dollar! Things aren't so bad after all!
