All I had with me was my R8 ;-) It was fixed within minutes of arriving at the hospital with a stent placed in my LAD, then two more a year or so later just for good measure. I've been okay ever since. I was told that I could eat red meat only once a week... to stay with chicken and fish. And, drink only decaf and eat only one slice of pizza a month. Jim It was warm again here in the Boston area today, sunny and 70m just like me!
