    That's rough! Glad to hear you are getting better, and glad to hear from you.

    Holy Crap! I noticed the absence, but didn't appreciate the seriousness of the reason for it. Welcome back Alan and good to hear you are on the mend.
    "A real limited edition, far from being an expensive autograph stapled to a novel, is a treasure. And like all treasures do, it transforms the responsible owner into a caretaker, and being a caretaker of something as fragile and easily destroyed as ideas and images is not a bad thing but a good one...and so is the re-evaluation of what books are and what they do that necessarily follows." - Stephen King

    Won't be buying anything for a while....life just has a way of screwing me over every few months it seems.

    A very large tree from my back yard fell Friday morning in a wind storm onto the side of my house and totaled my car (that I've only had for three months after my last car was totaled in an accident). Thankfully no severe interior damage to the house (especially since it fell next to the library!). Just going to be a long week of car shopping, meeting with inspectors, construction and insurance folks. Took three days just to get power back up and the cleanup has been quite fun! Ugh...

    Any way - I missed my favourite website and my favourite King fans and hopefully can get back posting on a semi regular basis again.

    Awful stuff, my friend! We have spoken a few times via PM so I knew you were still lucking at least Wishing you a speedy continuing recovery!

    Ouch, Jonathan! Best of luck with all the PITA details that will ensue.

    Alan, sounds like you basically went through the same as I in the hospital. Fortunately, I had 10 days in coma as opposed to your longer stay. It's a bitch making the comeback, I haven't made it all the way back yet but I'm a little older. I'm sure you will break recovery records though. You've got that sweet girl to get back to the park and such!!!! Best wishes to you, my friend. I have been and will continue to pray for your full recovery!!!

    Last night a good friend from my Italy days passed away at 53. Today was my grandmother's 101st birthday. Alan was in a coma but is recovering. John gets his house damaged and car destroyed.

    The universe is a strange, fickle, unforgiving, loving place where you never know what you're going to get.

    Oh, Bill, speaking of that ... I have your nephew Karl on LinkedIn now!

    The USA dropped a couple of larger ones. They proved effective to end war in the Pacific Theater.

    Very true, RF. My understanding is that the MOAB is the largest conventional explosive ever employed and was not available until 2003.

    Not sure if there are an soccer fans on here, but was watching the NYCFC game last night and David Villa somehow chipped in a shot from midfield to end the game.

    Somewhat paraphrased from the post game interview, "I was too tired to run anymore, so I shot it" - Villa
