you should eat a thick juicy steak and some fries followed by
a milkshake.

IBB I came in to one email from the gym administrators saying "sorry--we
accidentally cut the lock off your locker and threw out all your stuff
because we didn't realize you'd renewed it" and another from my advisor
ordering me in to explain some results--understandable, but not quite the
welcome back I was looking for. Bah.

Are they going to compensate you for the stuff they threw out?

IVBB Herb Brooks, the former coach of the New York Rangers and coach of
the 1980 U.S. Olympic gold medal hockey team, died in a car accident
this morning. "The miracle on ice" was one of the great sports
moments. I remember watching the U.S. stun the Soviet Union in the
semifinals like it was yesterday, so its hard to believe it was 23
years ago now and coach Brooks is now gone. RIP
Also Gregory Hines died of cancer yesterday. Hines was one of the
pre-eminent tap dancers in the world and a wonderful actor. Somewhere
on one of my old tapes, I have on tape the tribute concert they did for
Hines's idol Sammy Davis Jr., who was himself dying of cancer at the
time and had only a few weeks to live. Davis was Gregory Hines' idol
and mentor, and Hines came on and did a tap dance tribute to Davis.
And then he invited Davis-- by then very sick and unable to speak due
to throat cancer-- on stage, and Hines gave him some tap shoes, and
they danced together and brought the house down. A great tv moment.
Now both are dead and both dyed of cancer. Gregory Hines RIP

re 402: I dunno, probably not. They're strapped for cash over there since
the new gym went *way* over budget. Besides, a significant amount of the
stuff isn't really replaceable--my athletic shorts from being in the
NU marching band eight years ago; some shampoo that I've been hoarding
because I loved it and they discontinued it. Sentimental value only.
Bastards.

Herb Brooks did not die of cancer - he was in an automobile accident. Roger
Neilson died of cancer.
I am sad about both losses, but Brooks hit me harder. I thought he was an
amazing coach and the game has lost something.

407-- I didn't say Herb Brooks died of cancer, I said Gregory Hines
died of cancer, just like his idol Sammy Davis.

The housing situation is frustrating me.
I moved into a new house at the last minute, on assurance from the co-op
office that they had a wait list and several people waiting to take my room
if it opened up. Well, go into the office today and find out that Joan shooed
away everyone on the wait list because she didn't have a written release form
from me, even though we had been phoning and emailing all last week about me
getting out of my phoenix contract.
On Saturday my dad and I painted my new room in the new house "jungle green",
which was fun and the color is cheery and far superior to the depressing dark
blue that it was before. However, I still cannot get the room to air out,
and the two guys who live in the house keep turning the fan that I put in the
window off. The doors don't have individual locks so I can't leave the fan
on and lock the door.
Any suggestions for airing out a room? I have never had it take this long
in my life before... I want to get my stuff moved out of the co-op, and all
my furniture up from A2, and its hard to do when the room still gives me a
headache if I'm in there too long!
Grr.

Is the fan blowing out? If so, why do they keep turning it off? Don't they
realize that it will help with the paint fumes?

My CT scan was Wednesday and was one of the worst days in my life. Someone
forgot to tell someone else I was supposed to drink a contrast solution (which
is why they have you come in an hour early) so they jabbed a needle in my arm
at 2:30, left me for 1/2 hour on my back on a stretcher and then brought me
16 ounces of really smelly stuff to drink and then had me wait an hour. Two
hours with a needle and syringe in my right arm. Could not use left arm
because of pulled muscle and I had to keep getting up and down. Had to climb
up on the machine with no arms.
Another bad day was when I got the results - probably lymphoma of the spleen.
Lymphoma is suppose to be easily treatable with radiation. It will hopefully
let me gain back 20 pounds and sleep at night so I guess a diagnosis is good.
Anyone have any good stories about lymphoma?

Indeed.
Have heard no good stories about lymphoma, but no bad ones either.
