There's a reason a counterman at the drug store used to be called a 'soda jerk' (without feathers). :) gw

Funny you should mention Chinese. I worked overseas a lot and missed many holidays at home - Had Chinese for Thanksgiving in Soho (London), and Chinese for Christmas in London one year. Kind of a thing with expats and Chinese seem to be open year round. LOL I love Chinese food - could eat it every day. Whaddup with PS and our connections? I tried again.
