Jill:
NOt sure what a "Holter Monitor" is... presuming it's a heart monitor,
it's nothing to be apprehensive about. I wore one for several days a
couple of years ago. Never did figure out where the chest pains were
coming from, tho...

And you have described one of my favorite variants for the Bloody Mary
(BM in my house). This is a frequent afternoon libation and occasional
breakfast drink around here; required supplement for the bagels and
cream cheese when we visit our good friends in Detroit.

Some Canadian friends mix "Bloody Ceasers"... 2 oz vodka plus about 4,
5 oz of Clamato juice. Not bad, but I prefer the Hot BMs.

Sure hope you get fixed quickly whatever is troubling you. I know we
haven't met, but I think of you as a friend nonetheless. (despite the
mildy troublesome fact that I don't know how to pronounce McQuown)
