What flavors do they serve?
Sittin'. The frame is fine. All our chairs are fer sittin' on, even the Stickleys from the first decade of the 1900s (I think some other chairs we have predate those).
We consider all of our antiques as things to use. We don't live in a museum. 
Hard to forget, once seen!More than four decades since seen, yet strong enough recollection to think you cited this?
well, as Belafonte (and many others) said.......man smart, women smarter
Related to RTFM is WTFM.
But, basically, yes.
What flavors do they serve?
The Devils is particularly disturbing as non-fiction, and ... well Ken Russell ... not a lot more to say
On toast, of course?
Tommy was a fun film.
Mrs. Tango, who is not an RN, had the same experience with a medication they wanted to put her 90-year-old mother on. Her mother had side effects not commonly known, and Mrs. Tango did no some amount of online research into the drug and at the next visit suggested that her mother was very sensitive to the med, and asked whether they would consider changing to a much lower dose. Her suggestion was blown off first by a female nurse practitioner and then by the doctor himself. Now, Mrs. Tango has a t-shirt that has printed on it, "Nevertheless, she persisted." The doctor received both barrels of that phrase -- politely, of course -- and relented. When, at the followup visit, Mrs. Tango's mother was markedly improved, with no side effects, he had the wisdom and good grace to acknowledge that he had learned something, and actually apologized. One has to be one's own advocate, always. Doctors are employees of the patient. Very learned and skilled, yes, but employees all the same.
@Stumbo ! Nice to see you pop up!
Calling all GOF's for roll call. It's Friday! Please report in checking that most fingers and toes and assorted appendages accounted for. Yesterday was delicious. There was a slight mist in the air as I went to work. The air feels crisp with Fall. Multi-colored leaves are blowing across the parking lot and falling on our windshields. I love this time of year.
It hints at good things to come--Halloween, then Thanksgiving, and Christmas. We bought some new curtain rods and curtains for our bedroom so that's my chore for the weekend. I notice that I'm a bit more tired and achy at the end of a work day nowadays. I guess at 68 that's to be expected. This afternoon I have a dental appointment and really looking forward to it. It's the only time that I get to have two pretty ladies lay across my chest and smell so nice!
So what say ye, GOF's? What are your plans for this weekend? Anyone getting ready for Fall?
Congratulations!
Whoa! Pulmonary emboli are scary. Glad you're doing okay.
Wow! Lucky they caught it. I had blood clots a few years ago. I’ll never forget a Dr. leaning over me and stating: “you’re one lucky dude!”
