I am he, fear me
E.T. is back online and on the mend
Hiya dudes,
Didn't even notice I'd been gone did ya's
Long story short, I had been having niggling health issues for a while as most of you know.
The Medicos narrowed it down to most likely being Gall Bladder so I was scheduled for a short 1 hour Surgery for Camera work, keyhole Gall Bladder removal and, being a Living National Treasure, an overnight stay to make sure I was good to go.
In lay terms it all turned to shit and I ended up on the table for over 6 hours and a week in Hospital...
Gangrenous flesh eating icky Gall Bladder had started to trash the Liver and Bile Ducts, infect the stomach and snarl up the internal plumbing then 1/2 way thru my lungs partially collapsed which really made the Surgeons happy.
Scared the bejeezus out of my Kids as both my Mrs and my Sister died around 5 years ago from medical cockups in Hospital after minor surgical procedures went wrong but I was narc'd off my face and out on a Planet not yet known to science so I was the last to find out.
Anyhow, I'm back vertical again and the typing fingers are working OK so look out...
Plus no work until 2018, yeeeeehah

Dolphins are so smart that within a few weeks of captivity, they can train people to stand on the very edge of the pool and throw them fish.

Glad you good mate, would have been a bit of a scare for sure.
I think most my organs are pretty well picked so I should be good for a long time
