Went to the Doc today, and got the rest of the area excised that was under a pre-cancerous mole.
Got 15 stitiches on me shoulder, but am doing okay.
That too, beats a poke in the eye with a sharp stick!

Shuffle? I have an 80G video iPod, not that I’m showing off or anything.

Well, camping is about, you know, roughing it.

Main thing I like about it -- you dont' carry it around, you wear it. It's nothing. I don't even carry my PDA anyplace because it gets annoying, especially in the summer when I don't wear a jacket so I don't have an inside pocket to put it in.
