and, now, you can add:

2001 Removal of "Big Guy's" gall bladder.

Seriously!  He is in room 493 at Osteopathic
Medical Center. I took him to our doctor yesterday
morning because he was awake (and me too) and
in a LOT of pain Monday night.  He's feeling much
better now; however, I attribute his opinion of the
hospital beef broth as "wonderful" to the demerol.

And, because of this, I will not be at populace tonight.
Please eat a slice of pizza for me.
