An ANDROID!! HAHAHAHAHA!! I got a good laugh out of that!! Ah, Red, you are funny. Power source, good grief! Never fear. Do not forget that we come equipped with batteries to hold that BIOS in place. Once the bootstrap fires up, it is sure to kick off your main drive. If you still don't...

Hey Gail and Ram! Thanks for the HBs! Ram: Do I get to know what "Ram" means, since I'm the Birthday Girl??!! ;) I promise I won't tell! I figured it's either Random Access Memory (i.e. Flaky Brain, a.k.a. PumpHead) or Big Male Sheep. I hope it's not either of those! JJ: Hiya!! Thanks...

thanks!!! thanks!!! Hey you guys, THANKS for the HB wishes!! Very sweet of you!! Today, for the very first time, I took off from work on my birthday. YEA!!! I mean, it's MONDAY, too - truly they can't expect me to show up! I slept in (as you can tell), and I am just going to putter and...

Bill - congratulations on your new puppie!! She's really adorable!! I am always glad to hear when an animal finds a happy home to live in.... David - we had beagles when I was growing up - so I loved seeing your pooch's foto! I keep threatening to get one for my mom, because I know she...

Rosso: You're right. I think it is one of my responsibilities in life to pick on you! Someone needs to keep you in line! Am I doing a good job??

~wires~ ~wires~ Hey Nic, I remember when you had this done. I don't think I would need the hospitalization like you had, as I am not on Coumadin and only have the ONE valve. My wires are visible, they poke out, and the bra scene can be a pain when it comes to underwires. We'll see. I may...

Rosso!! This is very funny!! And true, I am sure! So the second kittie is yours? How old? You could name him "Lance"! I would love to have a kittie - I had a string of them when I was growing up (always pleading for one), but my last one got flattened in '91. She was my baby. Now, I have...

Joy, Having had a bunch of oral surgeries myself, I would recommend a bag of ice and a pile of movies. Watch a movie, hit rewind, go to the kitchen and replenish your ice bag, and insert another movie. I call this technique "DISTRACTION". Worked for me! Also, gear up for the warm salt-water...

Nancy, That sounds really nice! Post a photo if you can...? I am (sort of) working on some Barbie knits for my niece for Christmas (or her birthday if I don't get them done in time!) I made a very nice sparkly black sleeveless cocktail dress, and got a Barbie to give it a fitting, and ACK...

Hey Nicole! Hey Nicole! I'm a little behind in my readings here, but this is fantastic news! To have a job, and now hopefully a FUN one, where you're there working with people? Congratulations! You go girl! I'm really happy for you! We had our surgeries around the same time, I think. I...

Hi Folks! Today is six months since my surgery, and I am celebrating!! To everyone who reads this, I hand you a (virtual) chocolate cigar wrapped in hot-pink foil that says "I'M ALIVE!!" I am so glad to have this mess behind me, and still amazed to see how God took me through this crazy deal...

Hey Steve! Four years already?? Unbelievable! Congratulations, and many more good years to you! Somehow I found your site two years ago, before I found this one, and I read your story beginning to end, with terror in my poor little heart! But it was exactly what I needed to read - all the...

Yes, people, what does this have to do with chest pains? John, you are too kind! You're right, though, that was not one of my best days...! BONNIE!! A stewardess and model??!! Doesn't surprise me one bit, from your photo here! -J

All I'm saying is, you might regret that you mentioned it, once you see my picture....! It's for your own good, you know....

heh heh heh-- NO!!! Don't you like my dolphin?? I think he's kinda cute! -J

Ah, Rosso! It's good to see you back here stirring up trouble!! :D -Jennie

Nicole, girlfriend: You've been dealing with serious stuff. :( Step back and take a look and see where you are. You had MAJOR surgery, more than what most folks on this site have dealt with, with your two/three valves. You had your surgery the day after mine, and I believe you STILL...

YO ROSSO!! YO ROSSO!! HEY ROSSO MY MAN!!! I am SO GLAD to see you home!!!! I was away for the weekend so I wasn't here for the Big Party, but I was thinking about you on Friday, thinking, Rosso is supposed to come home today! I hope it happens!! And I just walked into my door, first thing...

Hi Connie and Vince, SO GLAD to hear that Bill's surgery went well! Sounds like he's on the fast track out of ICU! I hope the rest of his hospital stay is very uneventful, and that he's home (or in the Casinos!) soon and back to normal in no time. Give him a big HELLO to him from me - we...

Ann and Jennifer, Thanks for the first-hand account of how he's doing. I'm glad to hear he's hanging in there and sounding good. I can't begin to imagine the ordeal he's been through, and for such an extended period of time. We need continue to support him from the "outside world" here...
