I’ll have mac n cheese, cheesy French fries, and Jello with fruit cocktail for dessert. Same for the Padre. What flavor? Red. I’m allowed 3 calls.

Sing loud and motion for people to join in. No prayers. This is not a very comfortable gurney. The wheels on the bus go round and round, round and round . . .
