Hi Hap,

->  hn> Nope it's a fact. It won't keep forever but it
->  hn> will certainly keep long beyond it's "use by"
->  hn> date.

-> OK, we've not bought film since our trip to the Big Island in February
-> of 05.  Shot Maui all digital.

 hn> I like to use film as well, and I plan on
 hn> doing more film work this year...all I need
 hn> to do is find the time to do it (grin)

I know you use it for some of your professional work.  Finding the time
to do it is the hard part; I don't think I was in the sewing room even
an hour last week.

->  hn> Go get 'em Ruth! A good bowl of
->  hn> red might win you a nice prize!!

-> We'll see next month.  Steve couldn't get the application today but will
-> try again next week.  Mine won't win any purist chili competitions but
-> it's always a pretty popular one.

 hn> Popular just might win!

Yes, it's a colorful one, tastes good and doesn't numb your mouth.  It
would probably win "People's Choice" in most competitions.

->  hn> boring for me!

-> I never really tried for a beach tan but I agree; it's boring lying
-> there.  OTOH, if it's been a rough day before/night, I'll burrow in the
-> bed and try to ignore alarm clocks.  I need the recouperation time; part
-> of the life long effects of radiation include total wipe outs every so
-> often.

 hn> Anne knows if I crawl into bed and it's
 hn> not "bed time" I'm not feeling well. Or I've
 hn> taken a pain pill and it's knocking me out.

So she's seen you knocked out quite a bit over the past week.  Helps
your body recover.

->  hn> Surgeon said that other than my meniscus
->  hn> tear, I had the knees of a 30 year old...that
->  hn> was happy news!

-> Good news.  Before I was 19, I had one knee worse than Joe Namath's last
-> injury.  It never came back fully, enough to walk on it tho which was
-> something the doctor wasn't sure I would do.

 hn> And you're still using it with some degree
 hn> of success!

Yes, even tho I can't bend it beyond 90 degrees or kneel on it, I can
still walk on it.

->  hn> Reported at 7:30 am, home by noon

-> Nice timing; how far was it to/from the hospital?  Last times I needed
-> surgery, I had to be at Fort Stewart about 6:30 which meant leaving
-> Savannah about 5:30.

 hn> We are about 20 minutes away, all by city streets.

Easy.  We're about 17 minutes, no matter which way we go.  Had a check
up on Friday, and a pnuemonia shot for me.  Our new doctor is really
good--she checked out all the specialty work I'd gone for in July &
August, took extra time with Steve to figure out what med for him to use
for his cholesterol, etc, etc.  We're both very happy with her.

->  hn> (I think) I was still pretty dopey for
->  hn> the rest of the day.

-> (Biting my tongue)

 hn> LOL Go ahead, I know what
 hn> you're thinking anyway (grin).
 hn> Won't be the first time either!

If you know what I'm thinking, then I don't have to say it. (G)

-> I'll take your word, how about a recipe?

 hn> Sure, take on ziploc bag...one salmon
 hn> filet....put the salmon in the baggie, add
 hn> some Teriaky sauce and marinate for
 hn> 1-2 hours, grill the salmon and eat!

OK, do you make your own teriyaki sauce or do you buy it?  I've seen
quite a few different recipes for it over the years, tried some but left
others alone for what went into them.

->  hn> Life is meant to have a chuckle
->  hn> every now and then! (grin)

-> Yes, and a good hearty laugh other times.

 hn> reader's digest says it clearly; Laughter
 hn> is the best medicine!

Another Book said it long before RD did.
