The Caesar Salad had an interesting flavour and I suspect this was what upset my stomach. At the time, I wished I could have sampled the salad and then not eaten it. To quote Vir Coto:

"But it tastes so great going down. Coming up again, it's not so terrific, but-"

Breakfast: at the McPherson Holiday Inn dining room for scrambled eggs, well cooked bacon, SOS on a biscuit, orange juice and coffee

Lunch: at a quick food place called "Freddies" and I had:

• steak burger
• fries
• medium "Diet Pepsi"
• a "custard with chocolate sauce"

One of the workers went by and I asked "do we have to go to the counter to get the custard". She said "yes" and then probably figured that since I was on the inside, it would be hard for me to get to the counter. She said "I'll get it for you".

It is a heck of a note when some of the best service I've gotten at a restaurant is from someone who isn't paid to provide waitress service. There are a number of sit down places "back home" who could learn serious lessons from this young woman...

Dinner: Since we were at the Kansas Lions State Council meeting in McPherson, our Saturday evening meal was catered by Montana Mikes. This is a buffet and I had my usual:

• roast beef
• mashed potatoes
• mixed boiled broccoli florets and carrots
• a roll with butter
• lots of that seductive gravy
• cold water and
• apple crisp for desert

After dinner, several of us went to the Montana Mikes bar and I had two bottles of Corona.

______Vir Cotto: "I know. I know. But it tastes so great going down. Coming up again, it's not so terrific, but-"

As anticipated, I was sick as a dog about an hour and a half after going to bed. It was probably the fat in the gravy and the fatty meat, made worst by the two beers aftger dinner.

I barfed several times and went back to bed. Then, I had to get up and garble to try getting the acid out of my throat. I also ate four Tums.

I went back to  bed and had to get up as I  was coughing up pheum. I stood over the hotel room sink coughing up chunks of yellow and white crap and didn't go back to bed until much later than I wanted to!

This Saturday night meal has been a regular feature twice a year for years and I have blown chunks afterwards since 2004 or 2005. (I suspect diabetes has severely damaged my stomach.) The next time I queue up, I'll skip the gravy and maybe have a very small amount of meat - a taste really!

I'll have to discuss all of this with  my family MD again. Maybe I've finally gotten cause to see the Endocrinology MD (which we don't have in town...)

This was a night were my usual motto of "micturition ergo sum" had to be supplemented with "vomito ergo sum".
