Yup, I hear ya. My best friend/roommate died a couple of years ago from complications after having his toes amputated.

I went to the outpatient clinic because I was worried an ingrown toenail was getting infected. I have diabetes so I have to be careful with that shit. That toenail had given me grief on and off for a year or so and I decided to play doctor and really dig in there to relieve the pain. Duh! Sometimes that works but this time, not so much. So I'm sitting there with a numbed up toe and the 50 something doc is slicing and probing for just a few minutes when she says she's done. She shows me what looks like a 1/8th inch end of a toothpick and takes delight in poking me in the hand with it to show me how sharp it was. I can't remember ever being so relieved and happy that I finally got it taken care of. Now, it's almost healed and I feel like sending that kooky doc some flowers! Did I learn a lesson here? Only time will tell.

Happy B Day Adrian. Hope you have an awesome day!

That's mind blower Mikey! I'll see if I can order some from Amazon.

Looks fantastic Marc! I love that you got a Go ranking while on vacation. Sounds like my kind of trip.

Stay safe you guys! Anybody heard of using hybrid cars with inverters for emergency generators? After I bought my Prius I've been curious about this.

Happy Birthday Mike! Have a great day.

Am I the last one on earth to see this? Jaco, Metheny, Don Alias, Michael Brecker

Happy B Day!

January 2016 has sucked all the way around! Rip all.

Having all your apps and plugins updated seems to be important with the last few OSX's. It's pretty common for installs to get hung up by ones that are a couple of versions out. I'm still at 10.10.4 (I heard that 10.10.5 was a dog). I hated Mavericks but I'm loving this version of Yosemite (Mtn Lion and Snow Leopard were fantastic for me too). Hope El Capitan treats you well!

I'm very sorry to hear of your loss Marshall.

Yikes, I can almost smell it Ken! Anyway, Happy B Day Grahame. Have a great day!

Upload it to Dropbox/Copy/GoogleDrive or whatever your flavor. Then send the link.

Happy B Day guys!

Shocking and very sad! RIP David Bowie

Thanks Dusty. You might as well have reached into my wallet and taken the $! If you don't have it already, the Jordantron is very cool. Great for loosing yourself in!

I'd suggest the tutorials on Lynda.com. They aren't free but IMHO the $20-25 a month is well worth a monthly subscription. I've taken a ton of online classes and tutorials and the one's at Lynda are a few steps above most others. They use instructors that have credentials and there are enough classes that you can usually find exactly what you need. Many of my Music Tech college courses have used their tutorials as supplement. There's a 10 day free trial (just be sure and cancel your sub when you're done) and if the course has practice projects or some other extra material, you need the premium subscription (an extra $5 per month) to download it. http://www.lynda.com/ Other than that, you could always check the MOG's like Coursera or Futurelearn (Udacity isn't free). They may offer something she'd like but you might have to wait till it's offered.

Happy B Day!

Happy B Day Knucks!

I bet his dad is proud of him/her. Hell, I'm proud!

Very sad about both. But it was good to read that Trapper had done so well for himself after MASH.

Happy B Day Jacob! Enjoy the day!
