Whoa Nellie! That just sounds NASTY to me! The only way I ever had oatmeal
was with sweet stuff on it.

Angela was happy as a clam tonight. Went for Mexican food at the place that
makes us special meals. She wanted more coleslaw and the waiter brought her
a big plate of it and didn't charge us extra.

Nick, I just watched a repeat of this show:
http://www.abc.net.au/austory/specia...er/default.htm

Click on "Full Program" to the right of the photo, if you
have broadband.

To me, this was true reality TV. Two ordinary blokes making
a difference.

I can't remember the last time I had any. I do remember what I put in it
though. A lot of chopped apples and some cinnamon. It was the gluten free
kind, cooked on the stove.

I used to like a few variations when I was able to eat it.

1. Smothered in brown sugar and butter on top which melted, with full cream
milk- got that from my grandfather who would be 117 if he had lived.

2. With a combo of wheatgerm, unprocessed bran and roughly stewed apples
stirred through with skim milk - learned that from an elderly nursing home
resident when I worked in one.

3. Plain (but cooked with artificial sweetener stirred through) with
lecithin granules over the top and skim milk.

I take it you've never had Haggis. ;-)

That's great, Julie. I'm glad she gets that special treatment! How old is
Angela now? I forget. ;-(

Thanks, Alan. I'm on dialup. The pics tell me it's Cambodia. I met many
Cambodians and Laotians at a Cambodian Buddhist Temple here in the States.
The emotional scars are as bad as the physical.

I'm familiar with the pluck of you Aussies from ANZAC on and honor their
memory every April 25th and on occasions like this. I have a couple of
poems about Gallipoli, as well. I hoist a wee dram in Honor of the Memory
of All Who Served and especially those who paid the ultimate price, that we
may be free! Excuse me a moment.

Cheers, mates!

It's the story of a couple of Aussie Vietnam vets. They saw
horrific things in Vietnam, including an incident where
seven died from a landmine blast. One of them went through
years of alcohol addiction and, to my eyes, is clearly an
out-of-control type 2 (foot problems are also mentioned). If
you saw him down the street you'd probably head in the other
direction; he's a roughy.

But for several years he and his mate have been spending
their spare time and money in Cambodia. Neither appeared to
be wealthy. Among other things they learned how to defuse
landmines, by hand. They are the only free-lance unpaid
foreign mine-field clearers in Cambodia. They also are
involved in assisting a school/orphanage for kids damaged by
mines. They have also raised funds to send Cambodians
overseas for training in mine-defusing.

Just ordinary blokes doing extraordinary things.

To me it's people like these who should be getting prizes
for "reality" shows. Not actors, celebrities or manner-less
adolescents. But, of course, they won't. And if they did
they would send it to the school or send another Cambodian
to a course.

I used to eat it with just salt and milk and as a child with butter and
salt, along with the small amount of milk.
