Wayne, Marcel really likes mashed potatoes, but he does prefer pasta
with his meatballs. I guess he didn't want to make a fuss, or,
perhaps he didn't care one way or another. I am certain that he knows
the difference. )

As for those crank calls, I am registered not to receive telemarketing
calls and do not receive any, yet during the pre voting season I get
all these calls, asking me to vote for this or that candidate or
answer a bunch of questions for a poll. I wish I could register
somewhere, in order to have those people not call.

Tonight for dinner, Stuffed Cabbage (bought ready made) for Marcel and
a piece of roasted chicken for me.
