Whoa! That is good news, mate!

Are you well and truly alive then? Getting better and all that?

@ Mike: Smooth move, dude.

We don't need to have a chat with you about Nigerian lotteries now, do we?

I know it has been posted but I have tears in my eyes:

Hi Tim,

I am still alive, but have been very sick. But I think my G-mail has been hacked, and Mike (USS America) was scammed. So if you get any messages from my G-mail account please disregard them.

I am afraid that I am in not condition to resume our pbem (Doctor's orders), and would be for sometime. So I will ask you that we please cancel our game, anyway you would have moved on by now. But I wish to thank you for your incredible patients with our game, and you were an excellent opponent.

Cheers Des.

I feel like I am on a '80s night time soap opera. LOL

I have E-mailed the G-mail Admin from my other contact E-mail, and explained what I think happened, but haven't heard back from them yet. But if I ever get my hands on the SOB, I know what I'd like to do, as it is real hard explaining to Friends that you are still alive.

You realize that we take back all the nice things we said about you!?

Crikey! Whoever that bastaard is he should take up pulling the wings off of flies instead.

Glad you're back. Do obey doctor's orders, but not too much, eh? No fun, those guys! Glad to see your smiling face, er, beak.

Welcome back, Des... truly great news.

Years ago a friend of mine was reported dead by his college alumni newsletter. Apparently his newsletters had been addressed to his father's house and when his father died one was returned as "deceased". After the issue reporting his death was published we held a wake for Michael. So far, he is the only person I know who has attended his own wake - at least in an ambulatory manner. Perhaps Des may have a chance to join that exclusive club...
