I'm glad I read your post before I started cutting Dave......thank 
you!  Your comment about putting the soda bottle in "the suit, not 
my neck" reminds me of a hilarious thing that happened to me last 
week.  I really hope this isn't to off color but if you knew my 
wife, you'd understand!

I had an ingrown toenail in my big toe which became infected, sore 
and swollen.  I lived through it all week until I could get to the 
doctor on my day off last Friday.  My wife (Wendy) went along with 
me and filled out all of the paperwork for me while we were 
waiting.  She handed me the clipboard when she had finished to give 
back to the receptionist and I don't know why (but thank God I did), 
but I glanced at the form as I was walking it back up to the counter 
and ONE word she had written just stuck out at me!  For symptoms, my 
wife had written "swollen, red, pussy"!  She about had a cow when 
she saw what she had written and quickly changed it to "infected".  
I can only imagine the fun the receptionists and doctor (I think 
you're at the wrong doctor sir!) would have had with that!  Hope I 
didn't offend anybody :)
