Ice Berg Salad, Radishes, Strawberries, Goat Cheese, honey and a good vinegar (dark balsamico maybe). Mint and Lemon optional.

I had to think about the radishes for a minute, but I think they'd work. Everything else you mentioned is variations on a pretty classic combination. I used to do a version at a place I cheffed at with arugula, candied pears, fresh mint, blueberry stilton, and a blueberry balsamic vinaigrette. Big fan of the sweet/tart/strong cheese combination. Radishes would give a nice bit of crunch without doing that awful thing where people put nuts all over a salad.

Some yahoo yelled at me, saying 'GIVE ME LIBERTY OR GIVE ME DEATH', and I thought, "I'm feeling generous today.  Why not BOTH?"

yeah I know what you mean, its just that radish / strawberry thing that got me off guard but like you say its a typical sort of thing.

That sounds good. I would eat the hell out of that.
