True, and he never grew from it.

And won't. Of course, this doc was on the edge -
in my time dealihg with him, I heard him mention
at least twice that he would rather have been a
stockbroker or financial manager or at least rich.
I wondered whether to report him for unprofessional
behavior but figured maybe he was having a hard time
keeping up with the alimony or something like that.

So it appears. The guy did well in a very
hierarchical structure; he should have
stuck with it.

Probably some reason why he didn't, but you will, most likely, never
know why.

Nor would I worry about it unless malpractice
was involved.

A lot of people just like to be right all
the time, even if it kills the patient.

And, some people like that kind of treatment from their doctor. We're
not in that category tho.

Fine, let them, but it isn't the best thing
for their own survival either.

That's common - pretty much anyone short of an
olympic athlete probably feels that way at least
some of the time.

Possibly; I just know how this has slowed me down quite a lot over

the > last 6 months.

Started pre-hab therapy today--a pain, but it will strenthen the knee
before surgery.

No pain, no gain, I remind myself, looking at
taking my walk when it's 40 and windy and drizzly.

No, I wouldn't use water either, unless it was water that th

The stuff ended up being smooth enough but
quite dense. One could have used it as a

Or garlic-scented wallpaper paste.

It needed something to thin it a bit, even a little water.

The fridge was quite devoid of anything that

I'm not sure what Julia's early history was

from (probably similar to that of a lot of
people, including me, it arose from a love
of eating).

I think I read somewhere that she didn't knnow how to cook decently
before the move to France.

Entirely possible. France does that to people.

Sometimes in not-so-pleasant contexts. I've had
unfortunate friends as well as favored ones and
dishonorable ones as well as honorable ones. I
knew Whitey Bulger's brother, for example, though
I don't recall having met the man himself.

I can't recall any famous or infamous names/faces of people I've met or
known over the years. Met a few generals but they wouldn't remember me.

It's quite unlikely that Mr. Bulger would have
remembered me for long after our paths stopped
crossing.

Oyster plant with fines herbes
2 lb salsify (oyster plant)

Have to see if that's in any of the local grocery stores, don't recall
seeing it, even in Whole Foods.

It's available at a Whole Foods near me, fresh
or canned. You can substitute salted parboiled
parsnips, but the effect wouldn't be quite the
same (I imagine you might get better results
the more butter you add).

Hi Michael,

Just as long as I don't get him for a doctor...........

Doesn't seem to be so in your case.

A lot of people just like to be right all
the time, even if it kills the patient.

And, some people like that kind of treatment from their doctor.

We're > not in that category tho.

Let me talk with the doctor, not have him dictate to me.

Right now the exercises are all indoor ones; once I get the new knee,
I'll do more walking outdoors.

And not knowing how to cook but wanting to learn.

OK, I know parsnips are available around here; I've bought them from
