Ain't that the truth. Yep, my mom just got discharged from the hospital. Further x-rays reveal no internal damage and the docs suspect it is just muscle trauma that will take several weeks to get over, so she can go home and rest. We're glad to have her back here. I'm gonna have time to start reading what everybody posted now. Thanks again guys!

Best wishes, Bruce!

Thanks for all of your kind thoughts, guys. Haven't had the time to read all them yet and have just browsed through 'em. Glad to hear that another board member has averted disaster too. Guess a lotta of us are going through tough times too. Things were not exactly cheerful for me before this, but it has given me a newfound appreciation for how fragile life can be. Thanks again, everybody. I really appreciate it.

Thanks guys. Yes, the airbags and seat belts were absolute life savers. A split-second more and he would have slammed into the right door. Don't even want to think about that.

This past Sunday evening, after just happening to visit a friend in the hospital and heading home, a speeding taxi van ran a red light as I crossed an intersection and crashed head-on into the front of my car sending it full speed spinning and flying into a street pole. Luckily, everybody survived intact for the most part & I have some minor injuries on my right hand and knee along w/ soreness in a few parts while my mom's are a lot more serious. She is, at least, out of the trauma unit now and in observation. The other driver was knocked unconscious, but woke up later w/amnesia. Like I said, I am lucky to be alive & had been at SF General Hospital all night and went home w/ no sleep at all. I was not able to finally sleep until late last night after feeling tense and anxious all day replaying the scene over and over again in my head. When I saw the pole coming straight ahead w/ the steering wheel having no control over the car, I thought it was my time. Part of the Prius actually separated and it is a total loss, but I'm not really concerned w/ that right now. I'm just glad to be here.

Thanks, I have the Shepp & McPhee already. Was wondering about the Shipp & Copland.

I wish to lock a certain video file on a USB key so that it can be fully viewable, but not copyable. Is there an easy way to do this? Thanks, Org geeks!

What's wrong w/ the Ella sides? She's in consistently fine form throughout, at least based on the Pablo concert comp in this thread. http://www.organissimo.org/forum/index.php?showtopic=44796

Interesting date. Got it from a board member in the last few months for $8.

Sent you another PM regarding my earlier PM.

PM sent on the Fuller. Big Al can never be wrong.

Just a little.

Read about this woman in BusinessWeek this month. I dunno, if you were on more than 400 first dates and think all of them were duds, maybe the problem is... you. Since this was back in 2005, I can only imagine how many she's had now.
