I know I've heard about it...haven't seen the ads, though. I'll have to see if I can see them.

I do not have XBOX Live (if that's what you mean) though there is no reason why not, I just cant be bothered to set up the extra network connection. I tried to set up a hub so I could run my desktop, laptop, printer and XBox from the one router connection, but for some reason it wouldn't work, nothing would get a DHCP broadcast back to the Router unless it was directly connected.

But I do plan on at some point getting a connection up, I've got wireless, but it's not so good because theres a big wireing loom hidden behind chicken wire in the wall between me and the router which screws the signal.

Why?

Don't make me come up there.

Actually I might have to run back to Charlotte soon. Mother fell ill, or rather had something happen, may require some attention soon. Bad things happen to good people. I thought if I became a big enough asshole, all the bad things would only happen to me. Ah well, just another reason for me to kill God when I meet him.

The word at this point is "Mini-Stroke". She seems okay, but is having some difficulty with numbers and dates. She knows them but can't always say them. More CAT scans on the way.
Waiting and Seeing. Where's my "fix it right now" button? I can be a very patient person. But I really dislike having to be patient.

Sounds like the stroke hit the connections bettween the recognition and language centres of the brain. The brains pretty good with self repair, and your mother should be able to relearn so develope new neural links relativly quickly as long as she's well looked after. I hope everything works out Jade.

I figured it out: I'm 1/16th Scots. Mom's grandma was 1/2 Scottish, eh.

(Note: the true Hungarians, the Magyars, are a touch Asiatic/Mongol in appearance).

Happy New Year, Hidey-folk!

I'm back on this side of Canada now, doing my corporate functionary thing.

Jade: may your mom make a swift return to recovery. My own mom nearly kicked due to the effects of diabetes, but her will to live manifested in a newly found discipline, and she's made it to the point where, at a few weeks shy of 80, she's found a world of energy. Go Jademom!

Karel: HEY! I GOT FIRST DIBS ON THE SERNICALVES! (Though, y'know, after I'm done....)

LMD: all this negativity is simply a necessary prerequisite to experiencing the joy to come. Sounds sucky, don't it? Happens to be true. Trust me, I'm an aged, wizened one on that score.

Sean: I can't overcome the discipline of hopelessness you've adopted. I don't know the whole story and I ain't smart enough to come up with the right words. What happens with you will happen. Still, I do see that you're hanging in there....
