Hey UM,

I've been meaning to ask, how did you come to pick the "Uncle Monster"
nym? It's pretty creative and I was wondering how you thought it up.
Or did it just pop into you mind?

Also, I read some of your posts where you describe some medical issues
you have been having, and I think you are doing an inspiring job of
dealing with them. Instead of getting depressed (as I would) you make
the best of it and get actively involved in this news group community.

Let that be an inspiration to us all.

I am also curious, but didn't yet ask. He's got my

It's a shame Mister Meanie dropped the hammer on his silly ass just

LOL But this poast demonstrates the sympathy some folks have for our

I was given the name Uncle Monster by the 4 year old son of a lady friend of mine. My gal worked with a bunch of guys so when friends from work dropped by, the 4 year old was in heaven, he had all these uncles to play with. There was Uncle Grouchy, Uncle Smoky, Uncle Goofy, Uncle Stinky, etc. I knew the gal from someplace else and whenever I dropped by, the 4 year old would head straight for me. He was hanging off of me and in my lap where we wrestled, played vampire, pretended to be cartoon characters or Muppets. Of course I was Cookie Monster but instead of cookies, I ate little kids. When I switched to Monster mode, I'd grab my little buddy and eat him up. Of course, he gave me the name "Uncle Monster" which is what most people call me. That 4 year old is now over 30 and one grown man I can really embarrass. I'm Uncle Monster who thinks small children are great with barbecue sauce and the toes are the crunchy part. I'll never understand why any adult would ever harm a child even though some small children are the spawn of Satin. No one should ever hurt a child in front of me, I can't stomp their ass anymore but I can put a bullet in it. ^_^

As far as medical problems, I'm angry because I can't get up and go when I want and I can't do some of the simplest things to take care of myself. I used to be able to pick up a car engine and now I have trouble picking up my three pound Chromebook. I can't feel sorry for myself because there are people out there with problems far worse than any I have. It's very frustrating to be hampered by injury related disabilities but I refuse to give up. I don't get depressed because I learned how to beat the depression monster long ago. When my friend LM told me his problems had him depressed and he didn't know what to do, I told him to get mad at that depression SOB and let it know you refuse to let it beat you. When I later spoke to him, his depression was gone, he said my advice had worked. I think that those who give up are often those who die. I'm nothing special and have no delusions of my importance because the world will keep on spinning and the sun will keep on shining long after I'm gone. If someone is inspired by me, that's cool but there are much better examples of humanity than me to look at for inspiration. I have no desire to be up on any pedestal. ^_^

I can understand. Most of me is in pretty good shape, but getting up
from a chair is not so easy unless I assist with my arms and stairs keep
getting worse. I always thought that was stuff that other people had,

40 years ago I hadn't a care in the world about medical issues because I bounced when I fell but now when I fall, I go SPLAT! I got my Chromebook a few years ago from a web merchant called Woot.com and the company sells all sorts of stuff that's surplus inventory from retailers. They also sell factory refurbished computers and electronics. I have an Acer C710-2833 11.6" screen, 2gb memory and a 16gb SSD drive. It's around $300 from Amazon but I bought the cute little refurbished Chromebook for $150 from Woot.com. I bought the laptop bag that fits 11.6" laptops from Amazon which has three zippered compartments with room for my wallet, cellphone and charger, small paper notebook, ink pens, medication, USB thumb drives and other computer accessories plus the Chromebook and charger. I can also slip several pages of medical records into the same compartment holding the computer. I call it my "Hospital Bag" because it has everything I need in one bag for a trip to any medical facility. I keep a list of medications and other medical information on a thumb drive that I've given to medical personnel when I'm asked for lots of info. I'd recommend the same sort of setup for anyone who makes frequent trips to a hospital. Chromie, my cute little Chromebook has been my constant and loyal companion and he has yet to let me down. He keeps me sane, most of the time, because I can look up WTF drugs are being given me, Email whomever, do online banking, pay bills, watch videos, listen to streaming radio stations, Skype video chat, tech support for my housemate to help him with his business, fuxor with trolls on Usenet and I even used the builtin webcam to look at my furry ugly face when I couldn't get out of bed and roll into the bathroom to use the mirror. I have my full coverage noise isolating earphones to use when I want to hear Chromie over the TV or to not disturb my roommate late at night. I wish I had one of my full sized 15 or 17 inch laptops with me but those beasts are too heavy for me to easily handle. Most hospitals and nursing homes have WiFi and the highest speed I've measured here has been 50 Mbps down and 4.5 Mbps up. ^_^

successfully, at that.

Now, for tow truck and trip to the repair garage

That includes his politics.

Nerds are usually smart and have more than one thought buzzing around

doesn't lower intelligence, so it doesn't bother me any. What
