this made me chuckle tonight...
whatthouwilt asked: I'm one of the n00bs: CaseyContrarian. I LOVED the site, and it's amazing how much separation anxiety has been caused by your shutting down shop. I wish I'd made the decision to jump in earlier. Honestly, Xiola is the only board I've ever commented on outside of music engineering boards. So my question is this: is it my fault? PS: thank you for such a meaningful site.

yes, it’s yr fault.

It's obvious that going to the pool is not an activity that metalheads normally engage in. All those pasty white guys with the sunburned necks made me laugh. The best is when they are singing that bon jovi song and splashing each other. :laugh:

Was it a celebration ?

Got my Hepcat albums out of storage and putting them on the Macbook, really missed listening to this stuff. Haven't listened to them since Dave passed away.

Yeah but a new laptop is always nice. What type of battery life? That is the key for me honestly I like to dick around with the settings to where I can abuse it but still get 6-9 hours out of the battery.

Its says 6.5 hours but, probably 4.5 in reality if I don't dim the screen and whatnot.

that is still pretty good. I have a Macbook Air and a Windows laptop and I dick around with the settings to extend the battery life on both, aside from the screen dimming there's a lot of services you can not run on the PC that will help extend it. Basically I like not having to lug around a cord wherever I go with anything.

As for what made my day I was able to walk 2 miles and not feel like I died today which isn't bad after the surgery I had in which they had to open up my stomach and take out all my lymphnodes.

Naw on 28 Feb I lost my left nut due to testicular cancer and they took out the lymphnodes in my stomach and pelvis as one of them had a teratoma form. Basically in remission since everything was caught early but it certainly has been interesting this year to say the least. The second surgery was definitely the worst but feeling so much better now.

Basically just glad I made it thru and everything was caught early.

The lower part of my stomach basically they cut me down the middle from right below my breast bone down to my pelvis area.

Glad you're feeling better. That looks like a gnarly surgery. I've never had more than some stitches in my thumb. (knock on wood).

Yeah the epiderol wasn't working after the surgery so I eventually had to get an abdominal binder which actually helped more with the pain than the meds but yeah everything is good as they caught it all and shouldn't need anything else.

But yeah as someone said back on Xiola that my posts were going off the deepend it was when I first found out about it all and was on some serious meds and booze and I learned the internet, meds and booze makes for bad choices LOL.

Glad you're OK.

Yep, same as my dad.

Docs told him he wouldn't likely live to see my second birthday ...tomorrow I'm taking him and my soon to be three year old son to the Giants game.

All my best to you.

Goddamn, dude... glad you're OK. I don't remember your nonsense-period in Xiola, but your somewhat upbeat posts here caught my eye... I can tell some "life views" have changed/are changing.
