A Pleasant Visit

(1)

Last week's beer/booze mixture worked so well that I'll do a repeat, more or less, tonight. There will be less to read, of course, but it should be more fun for all concerned.

Froze my butt off last night. It was one of those cases where I had the choice of remaining under 'relatively' warm covers or getting up in the frigid slipstream to add more. I finally decided in favor of more covers. Turned out to be a good idea.

The follow-up visit to Kaiser Permanente (thump) today was a pleasant change from the last two most recent visits. The folks at dermatology were as friendly and efficient as I remembered them, and the 'keratosis' was quickly dispatched by a shot of liquid nitrogen. They also treated a couple of other suspicious areas with the same stuff, and took a biopsey of one area.

There wasn't much of interest in the news today but I wrote some notes during previous nightly newscasts:

Dead Heads - before and after
assisted suicide - joy is the sutra
are floating casinos biblical?
Franklin Graham on hurricane Katrina
is God's real name, Allah?
