Greetings from Berlin - I just had a titanium implant in my neck
Just had my surgery last week and it was a success. Now if healing goes well, I'll be returning to the States at the end of the month. I've not had regular net access, unfortunately, so I've been missing the fun with all the recent news. I hope all is well with everyone else and hope to have a regular connection soon.

Happy holidays, everyone.

BTW. these German keýboards are a nightmare in the net cafes!

Atlas.

Hey you are missing all the fun over here. The Secular Humanists have made it illegal to say, "Merry Christmas" and now Bill OLIEly is mad! ;)

6. I know what you mean about the keyboards
just a few letters moved around - so you think you can type as normal but remembering to do the special letters differently, and then you find out how automatic your typing really is.

The bummer is that if you spend long enough there, you'll find you have to readjust when you get back to English keyboards.

10. Havocdad would advise you to partake of all the holiday goodies
while you are there! His tales of Christmas time in Austria and Germany actually make me want to travel!

Get better. Get strong. Glad things are going OK for you.

Oh, and since you are posting from a foreign place, are we all being monitored for reading it? ;)

11. How are the nurses treating you?
Who gives a better low-back rub; U.S or German nurses??????? ( I know you don't want your neck rubbed at the moment)

How long does it take for them to answer a call light?

Greetings and Happy Healing......:hi:
