Naw, their spaghetti sauce is MUCH sweeter than their chilli.

As may be. The tamoline from Soulard Market is what I need until I develop a
workaround ...

Would that that were so. The actual procedure took about an hour. But, then
they had me laying flat on my back without moving my right leg for six hours.
All the while pumping saline and D5W through me to flush the semi-toxic dye
through my kidneys - and expecting me to manage a plastic urinal from flat on
my back.

I told the nurse that unless they wanted a repeat of the Johnstown Flood they
had better find a Foley catheter and get it installed - mucho pronto. They did
just that. Blessed relief.

Which McGee? Not Travis?

So, basically it's just a steer sold/butchered early. Humphf! Another
marketroid thing.
