As to my  "Baby Blue", so far so good. Doctor said I couldn't do any 
heavy lifting, nothing bigger than a half gallon of milk. At that point 
I was okay, as a fifth of single malt is lighter. But he also said to 
drink no alcochol as well. Bummer! The other eyeball gets carved on in 
two weeks, meaning I am going to be sans sauce for at least a month. As 
Mr Mercer the Wise one of Savannah wrote, "Y' got to accentuate the 
positive...." so I would positively be every so grateful for copy of 
Mr.Mercer's bio.

Thanks, begging openly in Baldwin as we start the annual North Michigan 
"freeze-your-kiester-off" season.
