Food porn of the day

Price’s chicken coop was a big deal when I left Charlotte in 1981 (among the locals). It’s located in an industrial neighborhood south of Uptown. It used to be across the street from railroad tracks, replaced now with the Blue Line LRV

The place has been there since 1962 – I was surprised to find it still there as busy as ever in a neighborhood becoming trendy.20131014-234915.jpg20131014-234313.jpg

    I sure hope your hospital adventure wasn’t heart disease related. I think I detect a small amount of grease and fats in that photo ๐Ÿ˜‰

      No, a Cardiologist was hovering over me the whole time trying to introduce me to his warez. I was wearing a heart monitor for four days, and not a sign of a problem. I shooed him away. My own conclusion is my health deteriorated due to long term vitamin D deficiency from getting virtually no sun. The original suspicion (offered by me) was a DVT that became a PE, but after doing tests there was no evidence of that.

      My niece thinks that is what killed my sister (they didn’t do an autopsy so we’ll never know for sure). My sister had taken a cruise to Barcelona then flown back. She wasn’t feeling well when she got back. She died suddenly in her bathroom. It’s also possible she had cancer… Don’t know. She was 62, no health insurance, but would not have gone to a doctor even if she did. This is a bit confusing to her immediately family, not so much to me.

        Art – understood. I had the opportunity to experience the vaso-vegal response which put me into the rarefied air of near death experiences. We still have no idea what caused it, but I spent a few days in cardiac care. CT Scan, MRI/MRA, Nuclear Stress test, etc. Your theory seems sound on the surface – what caused the DVT is my thought. I am glad you are here for continued witty repartee!
