I did tell his nurse and she said "We won't tell Doctor. He'll only get all

One of the things that Dr. Ganapathy mentioned was that he didn't want anything
coming "adrift". And that the plate and pins/screws were a lot stronger than
the bone .... so don't let's get to frisky and damage the bone any further.

I've no idea - but Phil was favourably impressed and is going to take Ms. Vicky
there sooner rather than later.  Bv)=  I think next time I will go for the
bottomless coleslaw - it's not as good as Kentucky Fried Colonel but it's
close.

MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06
 
      Title: KFC Style Cole Slaw
 Categories: Salads, Dairy, Chilies
      Yield: 6 Servings
 
      6 c  Cabbage; shredded
      1 c  Carrots; shredded fine
    1/4 c  Sugar
    1/2 ts (ea) salt & pepper
    1/2 c  Milk
      1 c  Mayo; NOT Miracle Wimp
    1/2 c  Buttermilk
    1/2 ts Celery seed
      3 ds Hot pepper sauce
      3 tb Minced onion
 
  This is pretty close to the Colonel's cole slaw. As close
  as I could get it, anyway.  - UDD
  
  Toss cabbage lightly with sugar, carrots, salt and
  pepper.
  
  Drench all with milk. Cover and refrigerate about 15
  minutes.
  
  Meanwhile combine the mayo, buttermilk, celery seed,
  pepper sauce and onion. Mix well with cabbage.
  
  Refrigerate again at least 1 hour.
  
  Before serving drain some of the liquid. This
  settles quite a bit. Keeps for 24 hours.

... It's a mistake to think you can solve any major problems just with potatoes
