Did not really expect a reply so I skipped return address part. And yet, few days back he comes online to reply to me ) 75 and keeps going. Can you imagine?

also, you mentioned the book. I tried to find it for free, but google seems to be spammed with paid links to it. that, or my google-fu is rusty. any way, I thought I'd ask if you have pdf or something?

any piracy related stuff is against forum policy [you can not post it in public threads]
please read the rules as you have broken several of them in the past few days.

I imagine if a friend comes to your house and spots the book on the shelf and asks you if he may read it, you tell him to go buy his own book. Because you don't tolerate pirates in your house, right.

it is not that i am against piracy[as a matter of fact i do not believe in copyright to me it is a way to oppress], however the forum is against it. As the forum admin Roar is absent for quite sometime, i just tried to remind you of the consequence.
You are free to pirate as much as you want but you cant do it here publicly
@Husky
sorry to hear about you, i know for some time that your health has not been very good. I hope and pray that you will regain your health and start rocking the forum again as soon as possible

Thank you, saviour...
Actually, at the moment, my health is pretty good. It is just that my legs have weakened from disuse during the time that I have been in hospital. I am able to stand and transfer from wheelchair to bed and back, etc. I work most days with a therapist in walking with a walker and am slowly regaining my leg strength back. On top of that I do daily exercises to help strength them further.
I go on outings to various social clubs that treat us veterans to dinners and other entertainments. The most memorable was to the Laguna Beach Festival of Arts show about a 2 hour drive from here. It was comprised of famous art and statuary painstaking re-created but the human characterizations are replaced by live actors posing motionless in most cases. We all (the audience) were startled when (I think it was Peter Pan) went 'flying' in 'fairy dust' overhead above the audience. Btw, the outdoor show doesn't start until it is full dark.
This is presented every year and lasts for weeks with the 'cast' taking turns on a weekly basis. A once in a lifetime show I was told by a friend and she was right!
Check it out online...
In-house activities include a horse racing game, bingo, trivia, karaoke singing ( I'm told that I have a pretty good voice),
domino's, card games (poker, rummy, cribbage). The section of the hospital that I am in is sort of a residential wing for long term patients or patients (like myself) going thru recovery. We get daily menus from which we can choose what we want to eat the next day...
I'm even allowed to go out on a day pass by myself or with a friend or family. I just use the wheelchair for now. For all the outings, transportation is provided.
I saw an activity titled 'exercise, tin can shoot' which I had never attended before so I went yesterday to see what it was about. It seems that the activity director clamps a board to one of the tables that has plastic bottles and soda cans attached by a string. The idea is to use a Nerf gun with soft foam darts and knock them over. There is no real organization to this and, boys being boys, we ended up having a free-for-all shootout and 'bullets darts' where scattered all OVER the large room and into the next room as well. We had the bingo game set up for the next activity and one of the darts even found its way into the box with all the bingo balls inside thru an opening about 1-1/2 inches wide!!! We never did find all of the darts, lol...
They also have TV's for each bed plus a LARGE screen TV/DVD player in the activity room for movies and music, etc. If I am playing cards, etc in there, they will even serve my meal there. We also have Wi-Fi, which I am currently using. We have a large selection of rotating books from which to choose.
I am pointing all this out to show that it is not all pain and suffering on my part except for not being at home and the therapy and occasional blood draws. My neighbor friend collects my mail, I pre-sign some checks for her to pay my rent and bills, and she drives my van once in a while.
Where I'm at I can even receive visitors 24 hrs a day if I wish (I don't) lol. I've made a lot of friends while here and have fun joking around with them and the nurses.
All for now (12:45 am), take care of yourselves and, most importantly, have fun with life...
Husky
(edited for spelling, etc)
