    JM>   Like stores that move things all over the place and where you brought   
    JM> X they were now selling Y and X was somewhere else.  I hate when they   
    JM> do that. Its to keep people in the store longer hoping they will buy   
    JM> more.   
      
     Been there, done that, got the wardrobe. I didn't go to the store to also    
   get exercise...but I have to wonder if it's as expensive as a visit to the    
   gym, the way prices are going lately. :P   
      
    JM>   I like to joke that at my age nothing much surprises me any longer.   
      
     I say that, but every so often, something happens...and I can hear my late   
   wife as clear as day saying either "Say Who What Huh??", or "Gag Me A Goat    
   With A Triple Backhoe" (she had a way with words). :P Duct tape can't fix    
   stupid, but it helps masks the noise. Also, Silence is Golden, but Duct Tape   
   Is Silver.    
      
    JM>   I went on the bus just once, and that was enough.   
      
     I rode Greyhound from North Little Rock, Arkansas to Huntsville, Alabama   
   for a ham radio event a few years ago. We had stops in Memphis and Nashville,   
   Tennessee...and I had a layover to change buses in Nashville. On the way   
   back, my relatives who live there, picked me up, and we went out to an area   
   White Castle restaurant for lunch of their "gut grenades", and I spent some   
   time with them at their house, before they took me back to the bus station.   
      
     But, there was so little leg room, that my legs basically turned to water,   
   as they stiffened up. When I went to stand up, I nearly fell...but my pants   
   did. Had I not had Depends on, it would've been "full moon rising" (never   
   mind "Bad Moon Rising" by Credence Clearwater Revival). When I traveled, I   
   preferred going Amtrak, as I had a lot more leg room to stretch out, whether   
   in coach or sleeping car. But, health and finances have ended all travel   
   outside of central Arkansas.   
      
    JM>   I was born in 1950.   
      
     Beat me by 10 years...yet in some circles, I'm still "a puppy"...but, I'm   
   weaned and toilet trained. :P

   ... Are cranberries healthy?? I never heard one complain.
