OMG!

This is quite a list!
Boy, am I upset that I had missed many of these on the first go-round!
Thanks, Rested Gal!


Pssssst!!
Do you think the author would mind if I linked to this from one of the "other" discussion boards? Hmmmm? That way we can spread the cheer around to even more humor-deprived sleep apneacs.

Well this as good as time as any to announce that I will have a book forthcoming in the next two months. It is a compendium of all the above.

I figured this could fall under the heading of compliance assistance. I am self publishing it with and on demand printer. My only goal will be to try and recoup my publishing cost. Hopefully enough will buy it for friends and family who are struggling.

I have no problem with you spreading my work since I wrote it for fun and hopefully some help for others.

Mike

All great suggestions. Toyed with "The Few, The Proud, The Inflated" but decided to go the simple route.

Okay, I HAVE to have one when it comes out! Maybe a half dozen, for friends as well!

I'm about 6 weeks into CPAP, and your humor has been such a help to me. I've had days I just wanted to give up - then read one of your posts, and settle back down to try again.

Thanks for helping us get through this with laughter - it is the best medicine, as they say!

Great work from both RG and Mike.
although I must wonder.................
What do you two do in your "spare" time? I don't chime in very often but I am often lurking in the background and this is a really good forum full of useful information and wonderful, colorful personalities.
thanks!!!
WooHoo! Life is good.

LOL, Peg!!

In my spare time I'm counting and re-counting coins.

I plan to buy a moose branded with Mike Moran's autograph on its rump!
