So - looks like you're off to a good start.

He's doing well. He had some nerve dammage in his left arm (he is left handed) so he has been doing physical therapy. He has gotten back a lot of movement, but still needs to rebuild his strength.

After insurance was done with his car, he bought a Chrysler 300 SRT-8. He's already started modding it.
That's good - glad to hear that he's healing well. If you speak to him again soon, please wish him my best. Where in Australia is he from again?

Hah - I'm not surprised he's already started modding it. That's a completely wild change though... from the S2000.

The interwebz run your life! I really just use computer at work now - very rarely login at home.

Did I tell you about my home computer getting destroyed?

I have not yet heard your tale of woe. Please tell the story.


Actually, I don't let it run my life. I spend a LOT of time off-line. However, I will check in peroidically, and that makes it look like I am online a LOT more than I am.

A bit back we had a terrible thunder storm around my area. My computer is fully hooked through a surge protector, so I thought I was fine. Woke up in the morning and my computer, downstairs tv, dvd player, and telephone were fried.

Turns out that our local provider had some line that got hit... a telephone line. So anything that had any connections to a telephone line were fried.

Had to buy myself a new setup - so just went with an Apple MacBook. Rarely even use it though...
