True enough.  Were I in the UK, and if Nick Clegg hadn't happened, the 
LibDems would probably have been my party of choice.  But now it probably 
would be Labour.

Well, that's not *here* now, is it? :)

True enough.  Mine's gotten smaller, though, so that's good.

3 months ago, I was diagnosed with new onset diabetes.  Since then, I've 
lost 10 lbs (without really doing anything other than eating less), and 
my test results came back last week as having shown an improvement, both 
for my BP and for my A1C numbers.  I'm technically now in the pre-
diabetes range.

If it keeps improving, I can start coming off the medications I've been 
taking.  We check the numbers again in September.
