What Hippocrates gave to the world
Nothing beats a quick excursion from office in the middle of a rainy misty afternoon, for a nice sandwich at a smallish restaurant with glass walls, that I am just back from. Heavenly!
Now. Since you would be wondering what brought his highness, the father of medicine, Hippocrates, to my blog. Well, a search for something led me to the below on Wikipedia. And, since I am forgetful and easy to distract, I am convinced I suffer from ADHD. Doctor! Help! :D
