Hi Michael,

 RH> We have contact with it only by way of our daughter the private school
 RH> teacher (with chldren in that school) and daughter with children in
 RH> public school, but a different state.

 ML> Too, things might differ by state as well as by the public vs.
 ML> private distinction.

Knowing teachers in both segments, we know there are quite a few
distinctives between the two. Private school teachers have a lot less
hassle from the state.


 ML> Considerably industrial strength. I've been packing Swisher's
 ML> wound (substantial) and have learned a bit about bandages. His
 RH> Didn't know he had one, hopefully he'll have a fast recovery.

 ML> I hope so as well.

Those things do take time but if his underlying health is good, he will
recover faster.


 RH> assistant did it during the week at the Hunter Army Air Field clinic
 RH> but Steve had to do it week ends. I don't think he said a word, just
 RH> had a very grim look on his face the first time he did it. He got
 RH> better over the time he had to do it (about 7 weeks) but it never was a
 RH> job he was comfortable with. The first time or two, he also looked a
 RH> bit green-ish. But, it healed well and there's very little scarring
 RH> left now.

 ML> Yep. Exactly. And as far as healing goes, Swisher says he'll
 ML> always have a flap.

I don't have one; the doctor went along the original incision (which had
been "stitched" with super glue to open up the area again. He didn't
take the time to do a "pretty" job but there's very few people that see
the site now anyway.

That looks decadently good! We treated ourselves to a seafood meal in
Savannah earlier this week. I had boiled peel & eat shrimp--quite good,
and fried scallops--more than a bit on the tough side. Steve had a full
(except for the corn on the cob) low country boil. The waitress said
that the half size came with only about 15 shrimp so he went with the
full size and had a big plate full of shrimp. It also had sausage and
potatoes but I ended up having some of his shrimp also, there were that
many. This wasn't one of our usual places for seafood in Savannah but we
didn't want to get too far off the interstate.
