Tomorrow morning I am going into the hospital to have this stone blasted. The procedure is at 12 PM central. It costs $11,900 which the hospital would have discounted to $7000.00 if I could have payed 1000.00 tomorrow. I can’t. Instead, Dr. Lapin (who is still a total bad ass) called it in as an emergency, so they have to let me have it done, but will be billing me the full price. I can call afterward and try to work out some kind of financial arrangement.

Anyway, Think of me tomorrow around noon.

I won the coveted Louie Award this week on Chris Doelle’s Riding With the Window Down!  I officially have the “greatest heart in podcasting!”  Lets see if it gets revoked once I break all those hearts in the Big Apple!

Seriously, Chris is a great guy and a podcasting powerhouse, it is really an honor to be recognized on his show.  THANKS CHRIS!

I got up early this morning so I could upload this podcast in hopes that it would go faster. The only thing worse than a feeble internet connection is sharing a feeble internet connection with seven other people. Well, it’s raining and that screws with the satellite dish so I will be lucky if I can post this blog entry. Let’s just say that MikeyPod will resume when I get out of the boonies. I am making myself crazy with trying to get this thing uploaded.

When I get to my mom’s house on Sunday, I will upload this show. Thanks for being patient, and happy whatever holiday it is you celebrate. 🙂

One thing I will NOT miss here is the super crappy internet service. As I have mentioned before we are connected to the internet by a satellite connection…. it sucks so terribly bad, especially for the past couple of days.

I interviewed Millard yesterday and it was just great.  really really good.  I can’t wait to share it with you all.  Sadly, it is uploading at 1.6 KB/s….that is when it’s not stalled out.

I will get it up just as fast as I can, and will be in civilization again soon.

Thanks for your patience.
