What's cool is my blog will likely be taking massive hits over the next week! I'm being featured as part of the December Best of Spaces again. I was featured in July as well. How cool is that? Last time, I took over a million hits in a week!:D

It means I am featured as a "best of" blog with MSN. Last time, I was also featured on the MSN homepage as a top left news item. I was getting a tremendous amount of traffic from it.

Hey Tom.......None of my bees wax, but why were you wearing the fingerless gloves in the "before" picture(Pic where you have the nose hose)? Was it a health related thing? Just curious.

Sorry, not my doing.....

MSN went to the Spaces live format a while back and I had to wind up updating my Java Run Time Environment for it to work right. I still have issues when I go on it with the Linux box.

They are so I could brake the chair on a downhill without getting friction burns and glass or debris when I manipulated the chair. If you've ever tried to hold a chair back going down a pavement ramp and gotten glass embedded in your palm, you'd know A) It hurts like hell and B) A Heck of an infection risk.:rolleyes:

Think hand braking a track bike.
