Glad you're OK yoshi! Too bad someone with a truck didn't happen to stop. Last time I was in a ditch was in a company truck, in the middle of nowhere. Not 10 minutes later, a guy comes by and pulls me out, totally saving my ass. "Nobody gets stuck in my neighborhood," he says.

Smile: tons of friends visited me today :)

Surgery in t minus 7 hours. Sleep? Yeah, right. A few more days and I can get home to mail some things out, namely yoshi's GCN component cables, and the arcade stick I sold on ebay to cover part of my NAOMI purchase. I can't freakin wait to get home, someone will have to pry my soldering iron out of my hands when I do.

Consoles: I have too much stuff
Arcade: No seriously, I have too much stuff. Someone grab a shovel and dig me out of my basement.

:lol: Badassery on all accounts.

Don't let the surgery get to you, I was hospitalized a lot for some stuff in '09-'10 and had to go through a few procedures myself including an organ biopsy and colonoscopy to name the least hair raising off the list. Short thing is just roll with the punches, keep a smile on your face and your wits about you.

You've got a goal and a mission to accomplish when you get outta this and we're all waiting to see how your NAOMI setup's gonna come out. Plus, how is Yoshi gonna get his component cables!

There was a guy who stopped, but he only had an SUV. Then a cop in an SUV stopped and called the tow truck for us. It was convienient, because I don't know any tow trucks. Or anyone who drives them.

Don't worry about shipping out those cables until you're healthy. I'm not even back at school yet! :)

You're going to love that Component Cable, Yoshi. Once you see the glory that is Resident Evil 4 in 480p Progressive Scan, there's no going back to the lowly commoner's Composite Cable. 8)
