Off to Mayo in Rochester tomorrow for chemo for Mary. I don't pack a
pistol there. There is no posted prohibition at Mayo, but the mortal
threat at hand can't be neutralized with bullets. I'll walk the
skyways and subways while her IV drips, get my 3 miles done. She's
quite OK with that.

Do you at least keep a kubaton at hand when out wandering? They're
great close-to-combat defensive weapons.

Engaging in close hand-to-hand combat ain't on my dance card,
particularly at Mayo Clinic. Geez, I could get smacked with a
colostomy bag or something!
