Hey there guys!

As some may remember, I went to Uganda about two months ago now. The trip was awsome, thanks again to those who donated. The soccer balls were a MASSIVE hit with the kids! If you heard the screams you'd have thought we had given them a bag of gold!

The only down side was that I managed to pick up MALARIA!! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/mad.gif) All the shots, all the pills, 'skeeter repellant and everything and the little bugger still managed to get me. It didn't hit until a week or so after I got back and turned out to be a pretty bad case, actually. I ended up spending a week in hospital, but the good docs got it all wiped out and I've been home for about a week now and getting better every day.

I've got some pics and stuff of the trip, if anyone is interested.

More later, just wanted to let everyone know I hadn't dissappeared!

Now, time to get to work on the turbo... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sawzall-smiley.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/welder.gif)

malria pills.... those are the best. Nothing like a complete system cleansing to prevent malaria. lol. I've had all kinds of fun shots. Malaria, Smallpox, anthrax, ajax, applejax, flapjacks, nick nacks, paddy whacks... some of them on the shot records say 'investigational'... WTF????

glad you're getting better. Sick Sucks!
