My Dad -- a man from Maine -- insisted on driving home to New Jersey from South Carolina during and after a TIA (minor stroke) -- he then drove himself to the hospital where they put in a stent (little thing that props an artery open). He was very surpprised to walk out of the hospital and discover that family was there to drive him home. He later decided that the stent surgery must have "caused" the stroke and constantly bitches about the residual slur he has.

Men from Maine!

Mother's favorite saying:

You can tell a man from Maine -- but you can't tell him much.

Are you one of them ornery kind, Kendall?
