Maybe he'll come around. Remember how he was with pork after being
downwind of a pig sty or was that a factory farm?.

I found that if one uses too much Nu Salt it gets bitter. I wouldn't use
enough to affect my potassium levels. However the two potassium sulphate
caplets I used to take every night to replace the potassium that was lost
through use of Lasix (water pill) did cause my doctor to tkae note. So now
I just take a single caplet every other night. If I start to have problems
with muscle cramps again I'll increase thae frequency.

I never eat the Popeyes biscuit. But, Jasper likes them. If he's not here
then they become bird food.

Popeye's cole slaw is pretty good. As is Kentucky Fried Colonel's.
I don't even notice the half slice of sheeze on the Mickey D's filet.
And Burger Whop's Whaler (fish sandwich) back in the 70s was much more
to my taste than the current offering.

That was, no doubt, some years ago. My local B-R brags about their U$1
single scoop cones.

RH> My travel machine is quieter so we just put an 8' tube on that. It

DD> My C-PAP is pretty quiet. So that's not a worry. The whole thing came

Still, reinstalling the webbing around my head after having to whizz is
a genuine PITA. I've gone to a ersatz urinal to keep from having to "make
the trek". Amazing how inventive we can get when needed. Bv)=
