Hey, what are you doing here so far down on the page?...you look lost...
You should be up high where everyone can see you and take a look.
Your daddy takes good care of you, but he can't be here all the time.
That's OK, let ol' Neo give you a boost up...

That's better...

Still hard for me to believe Alien is gone. Just had to say that.

We only knew him 10 months. He has been gone almost that long.

I was going to do a tribute piece for Alien based on the one D'name posted earlier (I was going to take his graffiti and put it on the side of the Woot HQ), but decided to go a different direction since she already posted the original.

Thanks gwp. It made me laugh a lot and cry a little.

I'm waiting for the anniversary.
I did give to Special Olympics when they sent the mail this year, that was one of ARGH favorites.
Did you sent the notice to his sister? She would like that.

pm me her address and i'll be more than happy to send it. maybe we can all send them to one person (you) and you can forward the whole bunch

No, all we have is the email and KT is the only person who got an answer on that first day.

Yes, I know it is already on this page, but it is a really nice picture and maybe if we all wish at the same time it will finally be spring!

Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center was an amazing place.
I suspect they have more money than they know what to do with, but at least it shows when you go.
The people there were all very nice and the care was great.
My sister in law is a nurse and she knows people who work there. They are trained that way, it wasn't that we got on a good floor, with a good head nurse. Kindness is expected from the staff.
It is also the only hospital I have ever seen that had computers for patient use. If you can leave your room, you can woot!
We weren't there long, it was father in law and the biopsy was negative for cancer, but from what we saw, none of us would hesitate to go back again if we needed it.

The hospital helped us arrange hotel rooms for the entire family so we can spend the holiday together. We made reservations and everything. One of his doctors, seeing what we were going thru to spend the holiday together found a way of allowing my father to spend the holiday at home and personally came to check on him every day. Some great people work there.

Too bad regular hospitals don't run like them.
