I've had several relatives on my dad's side with various forms so this

any cancer.

That works.  I've got a placard for the car.  Even Steve really
appreciated being able to park in a handicapped spot a few months ago.
He'd done a 20k road march and had huge blisters on his feet. We went
out for Mexican food that night and the handicapped spot was right by
the front door of the eatery.

No need for a picture; I've probab;y seen similar in various places. I'm
having fun with my micorplane for hard cheese too.  Last night's pizza
had 3 kinds of hard cheese on it; peccorino romano, parmesain reggino
and assagio, all freshly grated.

The white bread.

But he's not the head of the Fed any more.
