@bachophile said in Hay Bach!: Avasarala has Cushing? Adrenal adenoma? I was going to guess breast cancer, with mets to adrenal, and bone (knee and skull). However, looking closer, that's not a good guess. I don't know what that would be in the suprasternal area, and the primary doesn't show up. Cushings makes sense considering the hypertension and the cortisol level.

And in the hotel room, he can maybe have one of those gifts too (e.g., the CD/cassette recorder).

That's a pretty generic list... "Wheat," "meat," "seafood." Went to the grocery store yesterday and I pointed out the increase in the price of eggs to Mrs. George. She never pays attention to these things - never. She was impressed.

@jolly it's mid-December. Thanks for that.

No, Mik has the pot. I have the firewood and the backwater. Tell us when to show up. I've heard Brits ain't bad, if you cook them right...

@jolly said in A good deal is when both traders are happy.: Problem comes when some of them aren't breathing afterwards... Picky, picky, picky.

I'm about 5 years out of the loop where HHS and Medicare gave "bonuses" for stuff. In my field, we had to dance through some hoops, filling out forms, to get a minimal increase in reimbursement from Medicare. The time spent almost wasn't worth it. "Meaningful Use..."
