I'd need a nap before 9 AM if I didn't drink at least 1 pot of coffee before then. Even with my high blood pressure, I can't handle decaf.

RE: "Isinglass is a type of collagen which is obtained from the swim bladders of fish."
Does anyone else recall the Roger's & Hammerstein musical "Oklahoma" with the song "Surrey with the Fringe On Top" w/ the lyrics: "...with isinglass curtains you could roll right down- in case there's a change in the weather"? Talking about roll-down side shades for a riding carriage that one can shut- almost like windows- against poor weather? GREAT song- and a great musical!
