I will no doubt see you at T&C Friday evening.

No problem, Ian. We'll see you in the MOTOR for a pint. I'll bring the hat and the ticket with me.

Yes, "Ian" ... that's what my 'primary care physician' called me earlier today. No wonder people are dying in the hospitals, when their own doctors can't remember their patients' names.

Overheard in the PreOp:

"Hmmm...let's see. Is that word on the operating instructions "gallbladder" or "ballgladder"? What the hell..we'll take all three of them out and see if he notices.

BUZZZZZZZTTTT!!!!

Hey look. His nose lit up!"

"So doctor, how did the surgery go?"
"Surgery? You mean that wasn't supposed to be an autopsy?"

Friends of ours who live in Greenfield, Mass (next town up from the YC) just called and told us that the first of a series of free weekly concerts will be held at Energy Park (basically in the center of Greenfield) on Thursday. For those who might be spending Thursday night at the Red Roof Inn or somewhere else in the vicinity of the YC and looking for something to do this may be a little different activity. Concert begins at 7 PM. These aren't big time productions, rather a town concert the content of which changes from week to week - I don't know what tomorrow night's will be.

The Rochester NY contingent has arrived in South Deerfield. Woo hoo!

[Pamlico]

Forget the concert referred to above. Raining here in Greenfield as of 6:50 PM.

We made it further today than planned, all the way to Fishkill NY. Love that name!
