Ever raise animals? "Six days thou shalt work and do all thou art able.
The seventh the same and clean out the stable." Fortunately (or perhaps
not) I gave that up.

Steve,
There's a group that meets at one of the dry clubs around here and has
breakfast and then a meeting. With typical alkie humor they titled it as
the "Sunrise Meeting" -- it starts at 10:00. <g>

I think that sometimes the best that you can do for someody is just to be
there and breakfast is a great time to do it.

Good luck with those jalapenos. Moi, I prefer to break my fast in less
explosive fashion.
