Hello y'all. Today i finally got my hard copies for my orders of my next step in the Navy. I will be leaving Norfolk, VA March 30th and heading to Lemoore, CA for some Jet Squadron fun. With being in Pacific Time zone and probably different work hours, I don't know how much i will be able to play when i get there.

The lead singer of the band Monster Truck borrowed one of my guitars about a year ago to do some recording, he loved the tone of the P90 pick ups. Well it was down at their jamspace so he got all the boys to sign it for me!!!

So this is my second day home right now and I'm totally and utterly amazed by how well my recovery is going. I feel like myself again and I do still get pain meds for the surgery wound, but most of the things in the house I can do by myself by now. I can take walks outside of 5 minutes with my dad. I've got a lot of energy. And now the eating has started and what was supposedly gonna be difficult, is also going really well. Already my body seems to be able to handle many kinds of food. I do have to make sure that I eat my food very slowly and often, which means that a big chunk of my day I'm eating. If I get distracted by talking and eat quicker, I feel sick 15 minutes later. But that's just dizzy and tired and it's gone in 30 minutes. Already I ate 700 calories today and 45 grams protein (I need 90 after surgery) and my nightly fluid food (gavage?) adds another 1200 calories and half of proteins I need. It is gonna take me some time to find a rhythm in eating, so I won't need the extra help anymore, on average 2-3 months. But let's see what it's gonna be for me. I'm just amazed. It was such a big surgery and now I already feel like myself again. Don't understand how it's possible, but VERY happy with it.

13th now

i think cpu chips are now at 12 th generation for intel

You kidding me (hard plastic) I like my penguin blownt up and cuddly

West coast look out another idiot will be a foot Congrats on the new orders and Thank you for your service

lol, Grandpa used to say "Don't sprinkle sugar on shit & call it pudding, I'm not eating it." How right he was.

Nice testament by your daughter!

Dear Members, I want to start by saying thanks to those who have been here and know me and how I am. I am going through a really hard time right now because I gt hurt at work and they are trying to claim that my diabetes is the reason for my condition. The pictures I am about to share are what has happen to me and I am trying to heal. Monday I have to talk to a lawyer in hopes that they can help me. This just happened last week and I want to thank those so far for the support it is hard wanting to fight but I feel that all my life that is all I have done. I do not give up but this may break that. This is serious for me and is affecting me very emotionally. I have always try to do what is right and to be a good example to those that have worked under me.

Carrying around this bag 12 hours a day with the fluid food

Nope! Not any additional treatment (As far as I know now). One of the reasons for the check ups. So it's actually a lot easier for me than for people diagnosed with same kind of stomach cancer in the regular way. They do need chemo and a heavy kind. They are checking my stomach now though, cutting it all up and checking each little bit. It takes the pathologist three full days of work to study it all. I should get those results in a week or two. Expectation is that there might be more cancer cells in other places in the stomach, but all stage 1, very small, and not yet grown through the side of the stomach. In that case not dangerous, and no additional treatment necessary!

No clue about that. I do know that if I ever want children, there's the possibility to use IVF and check which eggs or combinations have the bad gene and which don't and use the good ones. There are a few genetic illnesses in the Netherlands with which that is allowed and mine is one of them. Not sure if I would feel okay about that, but it's an option.

Beautiful

I get an error when trying to load this program.................................

Not a bad setup, should run most games. I think the video card is a bit on the low end, but it should run COD4 like a champ. lets see some benchmarks when ya get er running!

yep probably right, i know enough about computers to write it on the back of a postage stamp, turns out graphics card is not working, so replacement being sent out, Grrrrr

Looks like old stuff to me. !!

Not a bad time to be in Lemoore Right between the freezing foggy winter and the hot as hell summer

Happy Birthday folks!

Crispr is a gene editing technology, too. It can edit a defective gene to cure the illness it causes. It's in nascent stages, but they've cured diseases with it in studies. In the not-too distant future, many inherited illnesses will be repaired, dare I say eliminated. Speedy recovery!

Actually, my laptop is getting repaired right now, but otherwise I might have joined already in a game or two. The doctors want me to sit instead of lay down for as much as possible and I would be able to do that for an hour or more by now. My recovery is going crazy fast

Got to love adjusters. So wal-mart told me that I am not getting work comp and now I have to put everything through my medical insurance. Bend over and grab your ankles sweetheart!!! Workers comp denied letter.pdf

Yup it does, a little crunchier on the mids

Happy Birthday!

NICE!!!!

It will work just fine. Don't install Punkbuster, you don't need it. I am guessing you will be installing via Steam? I have it installed on a Surface Pro 7 with Windows 11. Performance is terrible but it works - no probs.

Yeah, what a sad list and those names. Such much/many heartbreaking memories we have to cherish. Fallen or not, we DO have met them and that is our luck. Bring it on! For the idiots: That #December2Remember is not; December the second

Thanks for keeping it real. Just shows how fragile and temporary life can be. Never take anything for granted. If you love someone TELL THEM before it’s too late.

@RobMc ride......

Don't let WildStink fool you. I've got actual footage of what really happened. The guy he picked up from the bar was a wild one. ACTUAL FOOTAGE:
