I think the diet coke w/splenda is out and about; I was just listening to a co-worker complain about it the other day; I think she got the stuff from a cafe on-campus.

Also, Blue Ginger= awesome. I had rare tuna app, black pepper lobster entree; Tom had salt&pepper shrimp and butterfish. Yum, and YUM.

(sorry to be obnoxious, it was pretty much one of the awesomest meals I've had, I just wanted to preserve for posterity.) (also a little tipsy, doncha know.)

Hey, Betsy, do you have a recommendation for a local hairdresser, dentist, doctor, chiropactor, or vet?

I'm not happy with my hairdresser (ask Suela); I have a good vet and doctor. Go with Palo Alto Medical Foundation for doctors, and I can give you a name if you use the REdwood Shores center. For vets, I use Laurel Street Animal Hospital, also in San Carlos.

Thanks!

The great thing about PAMF is that (A) it's nonprofit but (B) it's all connected, so that you can be confident that your GP is seeing the same medical record as your specialist. In particular, both of them can look at your entire prescription at a glance. Given that I'm medicated for two different chronic conditions, this is v. nice.

I am drinking a special-formula Diet Coke... with Splenda.

Tastes a little closer to regular Coke than Diet Coke usually does.

ie, cloyingly sweet?

No, closer in taste, not intensity of sweetness.

I expect Coke Zero due out next month will be sweeter.

The Diet Coke with Splenda came in a little 12 ounce bottle that I think is made to replace a can in diameter, but about 2 inches higher.

I love current diet Coke. I like the bite. Mmm, acid burns down the esophagus.

I find that after a straight run of Diet Coke, I get tired of it.

Then I go off and drink other things for a while.

Then suddenly an ice cold Diet Coke calls to me, and it feels and tastes good going down again.

PAMF does sound good, Betsy. I will see if they are in my network. Thanks!
