I couldn't resist. White Rabbit Jefferson Airplane One pill makes you larger And one pill makes you small And the one's that mother gives you Don't do anything at all Go ask Alice When she's ten feet tall And if you go chasing rabbits And you know you're going to fall Tell 'em a hookah, smoking caterpillar Has given you the call Call Alice When she was just small When men on the chessboard Get up and tell you where to go And you've just had some kind of mushroom And your mind is movin' slow Go ask Alice I think, she'll know When logic and proportion have fallen sloppy dead And the white knight is talking backwards And the red queen's off with her head Remember what the dormouse said Feed your head Feed your head

That cat is going to catch on, then there will be TROUBLE!!! (That or he will scratch the fur behind his ear off........)

Prayers continuing for you both.

I am scheduled to see my rheumatologist in the near future. I'll mention it to her. Thanks.

I had a headache after attempting to discern what they were attempting to say.

Well, I guess you could say some of my ailments stem from not taking the proper care of myself, but I'm not buying into all of them. The cancer was because I let a doctor talk me into taking some meds I shouldn't have and the autoimmune is because of the cancer. I was extremely active and healthy until the cancer diagnosis. If you want to do an causation analysis, I guess you could point the finger at me. From my saddle, I'll just keep doing the best I can to keep above ground. Fretting about the decline won't help any. P.S., yes I do take a pharmacy of meds every morning and half a pharmacy at night just to stay on this side of the dirt. I'm OK with that. Autoimmune disease is a b!#ch. I don't recommend them.

Good luck, Marshal. Sounds wonderful.

I made slow cooker Jamaican style oxtail stew. I served it over a bed of white rice. YUM. I will certainly make this one again.

When we bought our fiver, we looked very seriously at Airstream. The only two comments we had were take a good look at the head room. We found a number of them had short ceilings. Second, and most important is weight. Because of their sturdy construction, they are VERY heavy. Make sure you have more than enough truck to pull them.

Wwwwwweeeeeeelllllllllllll That's more of a question for the fashion industry. I have seen women's clothes go both ways, depending on the look they are trying to convey. Most of the slacks I bought for work zip on the right side. I do have a couple pair that zip on the left, because they are styled as a take off on men's wear. I also have a couple that zip on the side or back for a sleeker look. (Pain in the tail if you ask me.) So, to answer your question, yes for the most part, they are the opposite of men's but not ALL the time. This is the fashion industry after all and there are no hard and fast rules. Edit, I did some research and found out the reason for the women's buttoning on the opposite side was because they had dressing attendants. In the days of old, men dressed themselves and were mostly right handed, hence the closures arranged to be used by the dominant hand. Women of wealth had an attendant helping them dress, hence the closures had to be on the attendants dominant side.

Prayers continuing for you both. Get some rest. I'm sure you both could use it. Flowers can wait for another day.

Where I work, there are no cash vending machines. You select your merchandise from the shelves and the fridges and walk over to a kiosk at the end where you scan the items, swipe your card and pay. The merchandise is usually $.75 to a dollar higher than it would be at a convenience store. I only go down there when I'm really desperate for something. P.S. There are also cameras EVERYWHERE in that area. They have walked people out for not paying.

I'll need to find a pair of those.
