Richard,

Yeah, I'm laughing now, and I never complain about my food at 
restaurants since I have heard too many bad stories of what happens to 
that food before it gets back to me.

Thanks for the light hearted take on this.

I'm off to bed since the meds don't seem to be working at all.

Yours,

Tom
