Thought I’d knock down two birds with one stone – hmmm, there’s got to be a less violent analogy that means the same thing.  No matter!  First of all, let me thank you for your generosity. Our little eBay fundraiser was a success and since it’s looking like the medical bills are paid for, I get to use this money to do something fun for my family. I’m so proud to be a part of this industry. Gamers are generous, never let anyone tell you different, and Linda and I are proud to know you. Second, I’m going in to the hospital next Wednesday to have all the metal removed (sounds scarier than it is) this will be an outpatient procedure and I had something similar done back in November. I recovered in about 3 hours then, I can’t think why now would be different. I can’t wait to be rid of this low-level pain I’ve sadly grown accustomed to. And lastly, a big thank you goes out to Alienware. They offered me a generous discount on one of their super-gaming computers. It arrived recently and it sits in my office – looking malevolent, cool, and powerful enough to handle anything. (Note: It’s black like the one in the picture but that’s actually a MUCH more powerful unit than mine.) Thanks again GamerDad Nation!

Love, GamerDad
