Happy Fourth, one and all! I can't check in as often as I was. Had a stroke Sunday night and will be here in rehab for two, three weeks, where I can't get to MY computer, bookmarks, e-mail address book, etc. Having a hell of a time making this super-sensitive keyboard take orders. I'm thinking of you and hoping all's well with you all. And looking forward to the day when I can swallow, eat and drink, not have hiccups 24 hr/day, can see straight, and can get back into the smoke swirling 'round this fire. C U!! All the best!<P>Ken

Damn!! I was making form dies this morning for the 416 Howell, and sort of wondered how you were doing. Did not need this bad news. Here is to a speedy recovery.

Hi Ken, sorry you don't get off that easy, get your act together and join us next week, that's all the time we can spare. Need your in-put around here to keep the fire bright. Hope your nurses are better looking than mine were, they knew how to play drag a** with the best of them. I found out where the pantry was and helped my self to everything in there, at $250 to $650 a day I expected room service. If I could get the doctor to co-operate I would get a suite at the Hilton for what they charge and have far better service. -- Hope things go well and you are back soon, keep us posted. You didn't say where you are, guess that's secret. If you feel like bitching about the service to someone that understands, [img]images/icons/smile.gif" border="0[/img] sonnie peoplescom.net -- no
A hint to the wise is sufficient! Experience is the best teacher!

Ken,<P>Take care friend! You'll be in our prayers! My brother is moving to Boise, and I keep thinking about going to visit him, but only as an excuse to veer off, and come have a cup of coffee with you. [img]images/icons/wink.gif" border="0[/img]

Mr. Howell,<BR> If your only half as ornery and stubborn as you appear [img]images/icons/smile.gif" border="0[/img] you will make it through this with no sweat. Listen to those cute PT's and OT's, and you will do fine. Our thoughts and prayers are with you. The fact that you were up to posting today is evidence to the speedy recovery ahead of you. Take care,,,BEARHUNTER
