Yes, it'sa problem with the sailors who get stationed in Sasebo and Okinawa.
We didnt exactly enjoy that first summer either!

 JM> I must admit, I never was challenged by 125F heat,
 JM> though. I don't know if I could tolerate that.

No one does really unless they live in the middle east.  You know you've been
in real heat, when 110F feels like a cool wave <g>.  I wasnt there long enough
to adapt to that.  It was so hot, some of the maintenance couldnt be done (at 
least not in daylight) as the metal ship was too hot to touch.  Flight deck
workers had problems with their boots melting.
 
 CS> Meantime, munching on crackers with cheese.  Brie, swiss, and cream
 CS> cheese ones.
 CS> Had to have my cheese fix <g>.

 JM> We are relieved you finally got that!

Heheh have had several of them now!  I just didnt do it right away.

Got the results of my cholestrol test.  Not bad.  220 overall and the 'good 
stuff' is 66 (should be higher but been eating more red meat and less squid).
The other 'good stuff' one is also above average so the independant corpsman 
said it shows a very good diet control.  See, they have a history on me of my
readings so they can see it drop from the 400's down to 300's and finally 
holding steady at 200-220 with an isolated reading of 180.

Hey, at least something's going right!  ;-)  I call for the MRI tomorrow.
