You're paying wayyy too much! I have made deals with docs in every city in
Florida to do housecalls(! Yes, to your home!) for under $150, so we can
charge $250 all told & still make emnough to stay in business)

$250 is the max you should charge for a housecall in the USA, or max $100 for
an office visit.  Google "Mega Assistance housecalls" to get better treatment
(all our doctors give VIP quality service to our clients.)

Don't need to be. Order what you like & enjoy!

I used to, 7 days a week, have 2 eggs(popached), 2 toast(uncut), 2 
bacon(soft) or 2 sausages, & unlimited coffee (I'd spend amn hour there
eating, drinking, & reading the paper)

I came in the door & befoere I got 6 feet into te diner, they had my spot at
Table 7 set up with newspaper & freshly-poured coffee, then they left me a
lone until I'd finished the coffee(every drop) then refilled it & asked if I
referred sausage or soft bacon today(I randonly varied between the two)

Then they were quick to refill my mug, but only when drained completely.
While I ate drank, read, & did the crossword, as often as needed until I
requested the check, which I paid with $3 ($2.50+ 50c(25%) tip)

Then off to work on 6/7 days & back home to do weekly chores(shopping,
laundry,. bill paying) the 7/7 day. . .

Good times. . . Making the most of my $5/hour wages!

Yup, I had to eat 5,000 calories/dy jusdt to not lose weight, & go below 95#!

Now I only eat under 2,000 & I can't lose an ounce!

I could break 'most any coded missive, but never did learn Morse; I know
emergency is best conveyed with alternating 3s (short-short-short, long-long-
long, or vice versa -- the pattern indicates it's not a natural sound)

I know it's based originally on Morse SOS.

For semaphor, I only know ND makes that "crow's foot" peace symbol ("Nuclear
Disarmament")

In a new movie 007 must save us from a mad man intent on setting off an 
atomic bomb on the bottom of the Ocean
Nucleotide Bond

TIL about a sneak attack in WWII, in which Norway’s Skiing Soldiers deprived
the German army of the atomic bomb.
They did Nazi it coming.

15 sodium atoms walk into a bar.
They are followed by Batman.  (subtle(subtle as the 'b' in 'subtle'), but I
love it!)

Q: Why can't you trust atoms?
A: Because they make up everything
