We have very fine Bagels!  We have Bruegers Bagels, Einsteins Bagels 
and Panera Bread and all them coffee shops  make bagels too.  And we 
have Lenders Bagels as well as others in the grocery store.  We don't 
have to leave them on the sidewalk to defrost them, we have 
microwaves....and lots of warm feelings.

I must go.
