mid december, a nasty bug bite(d?) me in Mauritius...
Infection, abcess, wich was pierced and treated in Mauritius .I went back in France 5 day later.
The gash wasn't better after 10 day. Went to the hospital where i spent my christmas and new year eve.
During my days in the hospital, they found out I had ZE diabetus..
Got out of the hospital in mid january.
I have to see a nurse everyday since then.

XYYXF recently sent me a PM reminding me that I made a promise to do some work on prp when i get back.
Well I'm not home yet but i'm alive and mostly well.

If not for the bug bite (which stressed your system), maybe you could have gone untreated for diabetes for a while and that would have been worse. It might be the silver lining that you happened to get diagnosed early. Wising you best of luck with your treatment!

a note to add to that : it is to treat the bug bite (almost finished now). I do my insuline shot myself.

rms' GNU Manifesto is 30!
 
I found this [URL="http://www.newyorker.com/business/currency/the-gnu-manifesto-turns-thirty"]New Yorker[/URL] article quite interesting and sweet.

Particularly like this:[QUOTE]Nowadays, he spends much of his time flying around the world, giving speeches and continuing to spread the message of the GNU Manifesto. Prior to such engagements, his office sends a ten-thousand-word document to prepare his hosts for his arrival, which makes for oddly charming reading. (He loves good food, folk dancing, and beautiful landscapes; he hates avocados, dislikes hotels, and is indifferent to wine. Also, don’t buy him a parrot!)[/QUOTE]

I can't believe he hates avocados. That's like saying Santa hates strawberries.

I've spent seven hours today building a local branch of Gitmo.

Anyone know where I can get orange jumpsuits to fit chickens?

And this a happy day?

Two things:
1) I think Cool Hand Luke is a closer match but YMMV.
2) Nobody can eat 50 eggs.

Spray paint?

Are you going to water board them, or just season? And, separately, when are we all invited over for dinner.
