I found this article on the Vanderbilt University Medical Center site, today. This is REALLY cool. https://www.myhealthatvanderbilt.com/app?service=page/PatientStoryDetails&groupIndex=4&storyIndex=33 I like it since I am a considered to be a, "Walking" quadraplegic. I received a SEVERE neck fracture in a wreck with a tractor trailer a few years ago that should have killed me instantly, or at least permanently paralized me from the neck down. Instead, I am NOT paralyzed at all after a C4-C6 spinal fusion with two metal plates, 6 screws, and a big wad of ground-up pelvis bone in my neck. Nevertheless, they say I will most likely have moderate to major problems down the road, such as arthritis and bone spurs. If I ever lose function or feeling in any part of my body this discovery may be my salvation! Tags: cure, quadra/paraplegia, stem cell

Downloaded Watership Down the movie the othe day. I vaguely recall watching it about 30 years ago, my wife tells me we did, but I enjoyed it immensely. Am now downloading Night of the Lepus, a movie in a somewhat similar frame. My current avatar is from Lepus.Mydaughter goes back to Texas Tuesday but will be back at the end of December again.. My son sat out all night on Thanksgiving night to attend the Black Friday sale starting at 5:00 AM Friday morning. He came home with a 160 Gb computer with Windows Vista, and LCD monitor, DVD r/wr drive and a Canon printer/scanner, all for only $199.99 plus tax. Best deal I've seen in a LONG TIME. His old computer had been dead for a month so I was so glad that he could get himself a new one. Tags: black friday, new computer, night of the lepus, watership down

My Computer's dead. I got the dreaded blue screen with message, "Bad_Pool_Caller". After that, Nada, absolutamente NADA. Luckily, my son is a computer tech who builds and repairs computers, so he has been working on it at night. Also Luckily, we are a computer oriented family with at least one working computer for each member and several back up ones and tons of spare parts, thanks to my son. He is boosting my computer up and putting in Vista so I should be smokin' in a few days. I have been crocheting Christmas hats for the family. Mine is a huge Rastafarrian beret, done in a red and white spiral, like those red and white Spiral mints. I attached a REAL Christmas Tree Ball on top instead of a Pompom. It is metallic green. My wife brought me a cake of cheese, a case of colas, a bag of chocolate, and Thou beside me singin......WAIT! There is NO Thou. Thou has nothing to do with me or my blog. Lucky is STILL trying to eat Two Bean Bags, so we have to watch the two of them together. Actually, Lucky was trying to eat ME this morning. Two Bean Bags gets MORE affectionate towards me every day. I think that we will soon sign a contract to become Life Partners soon. Tags: dead computer crochet predator prey
