But - when they're not having a staff wine-tasting right behind your table, the atmosphere is decent, and I always approve of a place that gives me a giant chunk of brie and blue on the cheese plate. And! The bread was warm. This is why I fix computers, not review restaurants, for a living. I also can sit down to a grilled velveeta sandwich just as easily as a gourmet whoo-dee-whatzit, so I might not be the most reliable source. But I do have some very picky friends who go there on a regular basis, so I'd say go for it. Ugh! The traffic - I work right down the street from Zax, and had to put up with the dickeduppedness of that area. It's all better now, except we need to train folks on proper traffic circle etiquette. Your chemo aftermath sounds a lot like my dad's. He's been dealing with treatments for the past few years, and has complained about the same rash of problems from him. Well, except the menopause and marijuana. Heh. I’ve only ever had beer, wine and the olive and cheese plate there, so I can’t really speak too much about Zax.

There was so much bacteria growing on (and in) those harmless looking hairs that the entire dish grew a plethora of fuzzy rainbow-colored life. I haven't gone near them since.

But yeah. Oh, and Twisty? Forgot for a moment in my effort to be glib above that it's not All About Me. (I wonder if there's some gender based reason for that.) But I'm <em>really</em> glad the nausea's gone away, and it's been a while since I've mentioned the "if there's anything I can do" thing. You know where to find me, and I bet this is THE one time when it's safe for this man to speak for many of the women in the room too. kathy a, candied walnuts are great in salads that contain gorgonzola and a good non-iceberg lettuce and not much else.

So, everybody, especially my fellow antipodeans, check your moles too! I've been making the whole forced pregnancy = forced organ donation comparison for a while now, since I stole it from Bitch PhD, but unfortunately it seems to require powers of comprehension far beyond that of your more avid anti-abortionist. I was once accused of comparing babies to livers. Um, yes, but not really. Babies are much tastier. (Joking.)
