Get Well Alien!
 
Hi,
Heads up for fellow Slackers!

From http://alien.slackbook.org/blog/i-go...-i-get-better/
Quote:

I got the flu, no new software or posts while I get better

I caught a bad case of it, I have been slowly deteriorating during the week and not accepting it, and I was finally felled on thursday evening.
If you wondered, why no new calibre packages, why no talk about the upcoming libreoffice or KDE, well that is why. I am unable to work on computers right now.
See you soon. Eric
Hope you get well soon.

Yeah, I left him a get well comment on his blog. Never had 'flu myself, but I know some who have. Not a pleasant experience. I hope Caitlyn Martin doesn't think Slackware is doomed because Alien Bob is ill. :)

Get well soon Alien and thanks for all you do for us Slackers! I don't think you hear it enough.

H_TeXMeX_H 01-28-2013 11:23 AM

Sorry to hear that Alien Bob, hope you get better soon.

I did get the flu only once, in New York City. It was pretty bad, it was hard to move around, I felt really sick. I ate a lot of oranges and garlic soup (not sure they helped), and I got better in about a week.

Enjoy warm food, and comfy couch. Get well soon, Alien!

mlangdn 01-28-2013 12:03 PM

Get well soon Eric! The flu is a nasty critter.

Get well soon!
 
Eric, I appreciate all that you do on your own time to see that we get quality Slackware packages. Sorry to hear about your getting the flu. It's a nasty bugger, to be sure :(

Hi,

I am a believer in inoculations for flu & pneumonia. I am a severe asthmatic and either would put me in the hospital. Add all the other issues and I can become very ill.

Chicken soup! Great for the immune system along with other good eating habits. Still love my occasional beer and warm vacations. :)

:Loving the Alien:
Good vibes crossing the ocean

Get well soon Eric!

Get well soon, and a big Thank-you for all you do for us Slackers.

gilead 01-28-2013 05:18 PM

Hope you feel better soon - I also hope you're a better patient than I am when I'm sick :)

Beelzebud 01-28-2013 05:56 PM

Get some rest, and get well soon!

hitest 01-28-2013 08:20 PM

Get well soon, Eric! I hope you feel better soon, man. :)

MannyNix 01-28-2013 08:51 PM

Don't underestimate the power of the damn flu!
Get well soon!

Yep, nasty stuff - I have had the experience.

Get well soon, but take your time coming back!

Your work with Slackware has been so prolific that we are all still catching up, so no rush!

You can't keep a good man down! He is recovered enough to be posting at SlackDocs. Then again, maybe that is just delirium:)
My best wishes and hopes for a speedy full recovery.

Bindestreck 01-30-2013 06:30 AM

I hope you recover soon!

PrinceCruise 01-30-2013 06:49 AM

These mere humanly microbes can't knock an Alien down, that too from the church of sub-genius. No way!
He shall be back soon.

Regards.
