True, but when have you ever known me to make the disntction between knowing better, and doing it anyway?

Knowing better only makes it more fun!

Just no seeing this! So glad you are doing better (or unchanged). Have fun at dinner!

Now, since nothing has gotten better or worse what happens now? Do you come back to the states to see a specialist? I can't imagine they send you home to wait for it to happen again ....?

Glad you are okay

Not particularly, but "He gave his only begotten son so that they could eat cake." doesn't have quite the ring to it. In fact it sounds vaguely French.

It was a strong German cake, not the wussie French stuff.

That's about the size of it.

Operating on the artery now is too risky (some bullshit about my head filling up with blood). If it opens up on it's own, I'm cool. If it opens up just a little bit, that's cool too. If it stays the way it is, that's also cool, but not as cool as it could be.

In the service, this is known as ''hurry up and wait''.

How was dinner?

Remember, too much schnitzel can lead to heartburn, which the good doctors will think is a heart attack.

Hmmmm. Wonder what these paddles do? CLEAR!
