Benson, I even learned how to say 136 in Spanish as the operators are both Mexican and don't speak English too well.  

I tried again today. Ed swears he's always there, but they came on and said, "he not there now."

You'd have to google Super 9 Hotel in El Paso, TX, Brad... I think I found it easy enough once.

Heelo everyone,

I can't thank each of you enough for the prayers.

BenBow gets a very special 'thank you'. He drove down to loan me his old laptop. It has a few keypads missing, and a temperment all its own, but I'm really pleased to have contact with the world! I'll go to Wally World to get a keyboard for it in a few days.

Doing okay but, as Dave noted, I have very little get up and go. This gives me a whole new perspective on fatigue; as bad as a 20 mile day of elephant tracking ... but without any of the fun!

Please keep those prayes coming. I really appreciate them, and I've still got a ways to go yet!

Indeed, it is a joy that we see Ed amongst us once more...

God bless you big time, Benson! You, Sir...are my hero!  :)

Ed told me yesterday that he had an accumulation of over 180 personal emails backlogged. He even had a friend sorting through and getting rid of the goofy stuff...but alas... he's a globe trotter and will be inundated for a while catchin up.

Remember his hotel room phone # is (915) 584-3441 to the hotel switchboard.  Just ask for room 136 if you'd like to give him a jingle. He's usually back in his room after 10-10:30 Tx (MT?) time.

I'm glad to have gotten to meet you Ed. I enjoyed the reading material you gave me. Looks like I have to build the 12v paper disk sharpener I've been putting off. You've noticed that computers unique character have you 8^). Still praying for a good outcome and the strength to go through it all.
Hang in there.

Ah! Picked up a wireless keyboard and mouse at Radio Shack. The screen 'fritzes out' at times, but i can type now! (Wops, I'll take that back, the keyboard works. I'm strictly a 2 finger typist.

Having some contact with the cyber world has helped me a lot! Thanks again, Galen.

Dave, this new keyboard doesn't spell any better than the one with missing keys did ... but it makes making the mistakes a lot easier to accomplish!

:biglaugh:  Ed, that has to be one of the funniest quotes I've seen yet! And it's the reason why you're going to be just fine! Attitude is 90% of beating this mess!

Keep the Son in your eyes, Ed...and that song in your heart!

Galen, I'm sort of looking at the screen as eye-movement exercises for tracking a pinpoint spot on running targets!

One of my bowhunting friends from high school just tracked me down. I haven't heard from a single person from my high school class in 40 years. Small world. He passed along my contact info to a few others, and now I'm getting emails and phone calls from folks I figgured I never get to see again. It nice.

Last I talked to Ed, the treatments are starting to really suck the swizzle outa his energy.  He says the best he feels is early so he's up early to work on his research notes for the next update...then gets his morning treatment and crashes like a downed fighter jet afterward.   :(  

He's got the spirit of a mule though and just keeps smiling.

he enjoys calls so check the phone number listed for his hotel room earlier and give him a shout.
(915) 584-3441 to the hotel switchboard.

Just ask for room 136.or if a very spanish sounding lady answers, Quarto (room) Uno, tres, seis.  :)

This weekend, he's been invited by someone to their home to get away from that hotel room. He's been there several months in El Paso and doesn't know Jack...

Even Jack could call...   :)  

Ed, Keep the Son in your eyes, bud!

Tomorrow is my last radiation treatment. Whew! It's taken a toll. I'll be headfing over to stay with a friend after tomorrow's trearment. Thank you all for the help in getting through this. Much appreciated. It will take a while to recover from the radiation side effects, but I'm really looking forward to getting started on that!

Hunting was hazardous, but at least it guaranteed the freedom of the individual.

There is no doubt that the onset of farming saw the end of leasure for the majority of people, who were destined to toil in the fields.
