    Yep.. you do have good beer up there ... have any of you ever had Sierra Nevada beer ? The brewery is my local brewery and it is sooooo good. Pale Ale, Celeration Ale, Wheat Beer ... those are the three most known.. but they make 20+ different types... good stuff... especially on tap at the brewpub!

    Just home and just checking in also - read most of the Unity thread. I suppose that's where the excitement was today. I am off work until next week so I will have to check in a little more often!

    HERO! Where'd you go?? Your Oscar story was hilarious. I could just see that fish being carried around! Hey, I hear you about the drinking. I can't stand to be hungover - and the HOT FLASHES are just making me a mess! Maybe I need to inquire about some Effexor or Wellbutrin or SOMETHING! My onc is going to give me the sly-look when I ask him "What can I take so my hot flashes aren't so bad when I drink?" LOL! I wonder what he'll say? I see him in August!

    Lupron-type shot tomorrow. Gotta love that stuff.

    Thanks for the update!

    If you're comin' to loot our beer you don't need to do that, ya know. Canadians are nice. And polite. Yes, we are known worldwide for our politeness. (I suppose you've gotta be known for something.) So we're only too happy to share our beer with our fine neighbours from the south.

    shel - I had two drains NY eve 04/05 and I asked the ps if I could drink that night. He said as long as I didn't "get drunk and pull them out" lol. I was getting ready to start chemo the next week, so I took what he had to say and had a few wines and of course, champagne at midnight.

    Shel, I see your problem as not having enough alcohol in your body when you're doing these tasks! If you get drunk before attempting them you won't feel as much pain when you drop things or catch your drain tube! HTH!

    Shel, sorry but your pizza is NOT better (were you inebriated when you wrote that?) as we here in Chicago have the BEST pizza! However, feel free to brag about your beer and your athletic young men!

    I'm inclined to agree Janis, we do many things well, but pizza I would not add to the list!!

    Hmmmm, I cannot speak about Chicago pizza, never had it. But I can speak about New York pizza. The size of the slice alone is unbeatable, if not eaten correctly, the entire topping will wind up on the plate, thick, wonderfully oiled down to offset that slab of melted cheeses. Real Italian sausage, loads of tomato sauce...Then the white pizza at Patsy's in Brooklyn, in the shadow of the Brooklyn Bridge...so good.

    I guess we're all eating pizza today.

    I dreamt about pizza last night.....

    But I have to disagree about NY pizza. I've eaten a lot of pizza in NY and I still think Chicago has the best pizza places! JMO.....

    PIZZA WARS! That's why I really can't say, cause I never had a Chicago pizza. One thing I do know about N.Y. pizza, you have to really be in the right restaurant. I've been disappointed a couple of times.

    Don't eat it much myself. Not really good for cholestorol so I'm told. But then again, that could be a myth.

    Actually, if you lessen up on the cheese, pizza could be cholesterol friendly. But what fun is that? Everyone is up early today, just say pizza and we can hear it miles away.

    Have had NY and Chicago, they are both famous styles of pizzas, but totally different animals, like apples and oranges. I grew up eating what we call St. Louis Thin Crust, and it is delicious, thin and crisp, so yet another style of it's own. No complaints on any of them, just all so diff.
    Never had a Canadian pizza- or hockey player

    I had a hockey player once, but he wasn't a professional or anything. I just hope he was better a hockey than the other thing!

    Janis, most hockey players are told to save themselves for game day ~~ perhaps you caught him at a bad time?!?!
