Aug 14 19:20:27 <DesertRose>   My stepdad has Crohn's disease so he goes through colonoscopy about every three months, and most of the time, his doc lets him dissolve flavorless powder in Gatorade so long as he uses a flavor of Gatorade that doesn't have certain artificial colors.
Aug 14 19:20:31 <KK>   His ashes are now resting next to my stepmother's ashes, and both will be scattered in Biscayne Bay hopefully the next time I'm down.  The neighbors across the street have a boat and are ash-sitting for them.
Aug 14 19:21:03 <Shiral>   "The ashes were very well behaved while you were gone.."
Aug 14 19:21:10 <KK>   Hopefully, that flavor won't put you off strawberries forever, Bee.
Aug 14 19:21:17 <DesertRose>   When I had to have mine a year or so ago, though, I had to drink this horrid stuff that tasted like very badly made salty lemonade and it was purely AWFUL.
Aug 14 19:21:49 <The_Bee>   I dunno if it\s flavored at all this time; I haven't opened the package yet.
Aug 14 19:22:11 <KK>   Postpone the inevitable as long as possible.
Aug 14 19:22:21 <Evie>   I wish the second time around I had the same sort of prep as the first.  It was only a pint of ginger flavored stuff that I poured half into a standard cup of ginger ale, waited a specified amount of time, then finished the rest the same way
Aug 14 19:22:34 <Evie>   The second time it was a gallon jug of something vile
Aug 14 19:22:48 <DesertRose>   Yeah, the very bad, very salty lemonade type stuff was a full gallon.
Aug 14 19:22:54 <DesertRose>   YUK is not even the word.
Aug 14 19:23:04 <DF64>   :(
Aug 14 19:23:16 <KK>   And on that note, I really do have to get going.  See you all next month, hopefully with news of great progress.
Aug 14 19:23:23 <Evie>   But the salty lemonade sort tastes better if chilled, or at least mine did.  "Better" is relative, of course
Aug 14 19:23:25 <Shiral>   I wouldn't wish salty Lemonade on Loris!
Aug 14 19:23:28 <DesertRose>   Okay, take care, KK!  Thanks for coming to see us!
Aug 14 19:23:31 <Evie>   Goodnight, KK
Aug 14 19:23:36 <Shiral>   Thanks for joining us today, KK
Aug 14 19:23:41 <The_Bee>   Take CAre, KK
Aug 14 19:23:43 <DF64>   nite kk
Aug 14 19:23:43 *   KK steps onto her Portal, waves goodnight, and disappears in a shower of green sparkles.
Aug 14 19:23:44 <Shiral>   See you next month
Aug 14 19:23:46 <DesertRose>   "Less horrible" is probably more accurate.
Aug 14 19:23:57 <Evie>   Probably.  :-D
Aug 14 19:24:06 <KK>   Nighters.
Aug 14 19:24:13 <DesertRose>   G'night!

"If having a soul means being able to feel love, loyalty, and gratitude, then animals are better off than a lot of humans."

James Herriot (James Alfred "Alfie" Wight), when a human client asked him if animals have souls.  (I don't remember in which book the story originally appeared.)
