Having been given 18 bottles of wine in 3 days [ I have generous patients & live in a valley of wine makers ], I've decided to share - what goes around, comes around etc - so have in turn distributed said largesse/favour. Nice reds mainly - Rose, Cab Sav, Pinot Noir, Shiraz, Merlot and the like. I'm no cultured connoisseur, but I think it's a decent score. However, I'm likely to be not as think as you drunk I am! :-)
In any event I will be AWOL as of early am 27th, off to Vietnam for beach surveillance and a cruise or two. Back ~ 8 / 9 January. Looking forward particularly to Halong Bay [ James Bond & The Man With The Golden Gun ]. See if I can find a Solex Agitator and/or unfolding Laser Array with remains of a cryogenic plant. I'll wave to Maud Adams if I see her! :-)
Cheers, Mike.

So what does "beach surveillance" actually mean? Are you going to look for underwater creatures, as in snorkeling? Are you looking for unexploded mines? Are you vacationing? What are you going to be doing there? Inquiring minds want to know. I am just curious why someone would go to Vietnam these days.
Also do you take the wine in "trade" from your patients? What kind of Doctor are you, lots of questions I know. Ignore any or all if you feel like it, I am just curious.
Good to hear, Mike...As for Illinois...it is a rainy slushy mess where i am...with more precip on the way...Temperatures have been on a down and up YoYo for the past 2 weeks...But despite all the slippin' and slidin' i am set for Christmas celebrations with family...I hope you have a great time at the beach!
It's a vacation, "beach surveillance" I think will mean making sure it doesn't go anywhere. Vietnam I'm told is beautiful. We'll see. I'm a GP which stands for General Paperwork these days, the local doctor that is, and I now have greying hair so I look the part properly now. Apparently I look after sick people, diagnose and treat in the traditional sense. That's the base aim at least. I do tend to advocate alot on behalf of patients with the "healthcare system" ( what an oxymoron that term is, I could do essays forever on that! ) write letters and whinge at administrators etc. I train medical students and junior doctors in the black arts of ear-wax-removal / sleep-deprived-mothers / contraception-failure / listening-to-children etc. As for "in trade" then yes, absolutely. I tend to do "Robin Hood" a fair bit ( charge the rich so that I can do free stuff for the poor ), but don't tell the Tax Office because they are probably missing out on GST/VAT that way - but stuff 'em. :-)
Ah, the household is stirring .... so I'm off to Prezzie Opening!! :-)
Cheers, Mike.

Hi folks!
I want to wish you a Merry Christmas and a happy New Year 2009...
A little bit of mistery, faith, hope and all those things Science cannot cover/study.
Remember, so far we know, only about 4/5 % of the universe is atoms/matter!
Greetings as well to those in other dimensions and warped spaces!
Merry Christmas from Charlottetown Prince Edward Island..
It is 1:30AM Festivities start in earnest in Morning with dinner at my aunts.. Everybody goes to moms for Christmas Day Buffet after ... We have been doing this for fifty years this year... I am currently watching Star Trek Wrath of Khan on the space channel... My favorite..
