I made a couple of Mediterranean Cruises when in the Marine Corps . We would buy several cans of sardines . Someone would volunteer to go to the mess hall late at night and get some saltine crackers . We would have sardines and crackers and coffee and play cards until the wee hours of the morning .

Always liked sardines in oil .... no favorite brand . When I was a kid , I really liked smoked herring but it sure made for bad breath . But then bad breath is better than no breath at all !

Oh , with that 10 pound restriction , I won't be able to carry my wallet around for 4 weeks !

A lipoma is a fatty deposit under the skin . I think they are hereditary from my mother's side of the family .

No rehab Growie . Just suck it up and follow doctor's instructions . Don't lift anything 10 pounds or more for 4 weeks so that there is no strain on the stomach muscles . I made sure I had my operations / procedures scheduled for after Deer season and Christmas .

Just got back from Rochester General after having an Umbilical Hernia repaired . It hurts to laugh , sneeze , cough and move around . Apparently I didn't wait too long to have the procedure done but it would have been better to have it done at an earlier age . I am struggling to get around like a 100 year old man . The surgeon explained what could have happened if I had left it untreated . Got a lot of restrictions . Can't shoot the bow in the basement for at least 4 weeks . I wanted a large lipoma on my stomach but the surgeon advised against it . He said doing so could create several complications and advised that I persisted in having the lipoma removed it would be better to have it done by a plastic surgeon . At 74 I figure I could live without it . So , for anyone that has any type of Hernia , don't procrastinate , get it taken care of .

Every sailing ship had to have cannon for protection. Cannon of the times required round iron cannonballs. The master wanted to store the cannon-balls such that they could be of instant use when needed, yet not roll around the gun deck. The solution was to stack them up in a square based pyramid next to the cannon. The top level of the stack had one ball, the next level down had four, the next had nine, the next had sixteen, and so on. Four levels would provide a stack of30 cannonballs. The only real problem was how to keep the bottom level from sliding out from under the weight of the higher levels. To do this, they devised a small brass plate ("brass monkey") with one rounded indentation for each cannonball in the bottom layer. Brass was used because the cannonballs wouldn't rust to the "brass monkey", but would rust to an iron one. When temperature falls, brass contracts in size faster than iron. As it got cold on the gun decks, the indentations in the brass monkey would get smaller than the iron cannonballs they were holding. If the temperature got cold enough, the bottom layer would pop out of the indentations spilling the entire pyramid over the deck. Thus it was, quite literally, "cold enough to freeze the balls off a "brass monkey. "
