That's great and amazing, usually those things are the end. He was really lucky to be close to a hospital and got air lifted. Man he is one lucky guy.

Yes he is lucky. He is an ER nurse too. The gym called 911 and the ambulance drivers know him. Rushed him to the hospital he works at. The Dr is also a good friend of theirs. One look at the CAT scan and she immediately had him air lifted to Shands. So everything just clicked. It was the quick, intelligent response that saved him.

They drilled through his skull to insert the stent, and hit it perfectly. One lucky guy and excellent medical care. Doesn't happen every day.

from what I've read, it works really well on Android and Mac...
I used the last of my credit card points at 11:59 this morning, and by 9PM, had a new Android 6.0 Lollipop TV Box
Prime membership is great for those same-day deliveries... watched the last 6 episodes of season 6 for the Big Bang Theory, searched around a bit, and just finished watching the first episode of Gummi Bears.
I'm sure you can find Winkie Dink

That's a nice looking gadget ... with a bunch of add-ons already ... let me know how you like it. Our son's on a tight budget after buying their 1st house. They don't have any cable/FIOS TV service, trying to save money. Something like this might benefit him 'till they re-bound a bit money wise.

Still gonna need a wi-fi provider; unless there's a local 'community' network. If so, then security may be an issue.

Well, I loaded Exodus into Kodi and watched 'London Has Fallen'.

that was good, but I like the first one better. I got to see it on one of the movie channels the kids had. I'm with you, there are a ton of movies I've missed over the last 5-6 years.

My friend's husband was better yesterday evening. Coherent, talking, responding, all very positive. He has a long way to go, but it looks better than it did.

Not only that, but my nurse daughter has accomplished more than any of my rants with Patty's past hospital visits as to treatment!

Good for wifi ... that they have. They live off HBO-go, Netflix, and a big library of DVD/Blue-Ray.

    Sounds great! I'm still trying to get the VPN installed. I thought I did, but can't find a way to check...

    They must have a smart tv huh? I've got one a Vizio and it doesn't have HBO go. When I looked it up at the time Samsung was the only one I wonder if they've changed that.
