Lying here, I realize how much has changed: I lie waiting for a nurse to get me OUT of bed! :eek: :eek:

Ahhh, yes. But doesn't she eventually have to get you IN bed too? Knowing you, I'm sure you'll find a way to at least get that thought planted in her mind!
:D ;)
 
Hey buddy, good to see your words online again. Can't wait to see you soon and talk about the upcoming SherpaPalooza. Heal well, don't annoy the nurses too much, stay sane.

Hey Sherpa, good to see you back online. I guess that means that the vision is back nice and sharp now, right?

Good. Look at this picture from a bike race I was in. Notice what the girl behind me is wearing... or should I say is NOT wearing.

Been waiting to show you this, because I know you had some vision problems at the beginning.

hahaha! Pete Hickey is a big tease!!! We should take a poll to see how many people came away disappointed after viewing that photo!!!

Hope laughing doesn't hurt your ribs and I hope too that you will soon be home sending funny messages from your very own computer!...... :D

Hi Sherpa, I was thinking of prank phone calling you on your cell phone but think I'll wait till your ribs heal a little more :D Let me know when you're ready to have a guitar in your lap... I'll come up and show you some tricks, alt tunings, etc.

Hang in there and heal up, hope to see you soon! Fred

Finally managed to visit Sherpa Kroto yesterday in the hospital. He is still in rough shape and it is still very different from hour to hour. Getting out of the hospital to rehab this week and then back to home will be a big lift for him.
Was able to watch a couple of innings of the Red Sox (we got to watch them leave the bases loaded two innings in a row - not what a recovering man needs to see!) but it was apparent that he was quite tired and needed to rest.

He enjoyed to posting, but the computer set up is pretty tough to use, and his eyes are the same...so he may not post too much.

Let's get him home soon!
 
Great to see SherpaK back on-line.

Did anyone notice how this thread dwarfs the next one with the most hits, Mooning the Cog? Wonder if it has anything to do with those hospital PJs they issue? :eek:
 
spoke with the man today - he sounded pretty darn good :D , seems to have his sense of humor back. - thinks he may be back at the rehab place soon.

I told him about the rainier 2005 stats and that he was part of the 44% of unguided climbers to summit in 2005 - as crazy as it sounds as that fact means nothing now - he has more imprtant things on his mind - when I told him this - his spirits seemed very uplifted to hear this and there was proud joy in his voice :D :D

Pete You are on my Crap List now!!! I must spent 3 minutes with that damn photo squinting trying to see what the girl behind you was wearing. That is Til it finally dawned on me .....Duh!!!!! Grrrrr....... :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad:

On a better note, SherpaK it was nice to talk to you the other day. I know a lot of folks are calling, but I do like to check in from time to time.
Hope you are feeling better.
