Onions, mushrooms, tomatoes, artichoke hearts, spinach, feta, and another kind of cheese I don't remember from the menu. Very good. I'm having the rest of it now. The roasted potatoes were also good. The best part was the cappuccino. I agreed to allow them to blasphemously add caramel and not only was it delicious but you could also taste the coffee which is a rarity.

...to the surprise of no one here, I'm certain, all my hammers are old, classic hammers.
Many came from Midwest farm and foothill mining country yard sales, and some have been rehandled over the years from over enthusiastic application.
The best ones are the various olde blacksmithing hammers. You can really apply some "modification" with a cross pein hand sledge. 
[/QUOTE]Yeah, but still, that is one good looking hammer.

I've been suffering that the last 2 years. You do the best you can.

She was a very nice female cyclist who vanished from this thread around two years ago IIRC. Anybody seen or heard from @truckstop?

All I'm saying is that when I have my nurse make the overhead page "any Internist to the OR" you get a lot of looky loo types peering through the OR window at you.
Oy it's been a rough couple of days at work. Thankfully Tuesday is my Wednesday. Halfway to the weekend!
But my workout went well this am, that is always a good start to the day.
