!!!cHaiNdoG IS BACK ON THE TRACKS!!!

[BFM_Chaindog]

CHAIN IS BACK!!!!
It has been a long series of false starts, dial-up internet, two-faced employers, local disinterest in helping a foreigner (American!), completely -bleeped- disorganization as to living quarters and moving from one villa compound to another like some vagabond Persian kitty (lots of those around here).......    

.....but finally ol' Chaindog has his Middle Eastern villa with a master bedroom, his 2Mbps ADSL+ internet finally connected (the installers even knocked out the entire city block trying to install it!), and almost 60 GBs worth of software/hardware updates to download/restart/download/restart/download again.  Heh, and now I see that there is even a WinXP Service Pack 3 out to download!!!  Once all of that is completed for my desktop's security (I seem to be only one of two contractors around here with a full desktop instead of a puny laptop or desktop replacement notebook), y'all will see why Chaindog was a feared puppy on the tracks (especially combined with SGjr).   

For now, Chaindog WILL BE PLAYING, but without RCON or for long periods until everything is re-downloaded.  No need to ban me, imposter I be NOT!   

P.S.~  Ahhhh!  Forgot to mention that when I wasn't dealing with those issues above, I've been working between 12-18 hour days, went 7.5 weeks w/o a day off due to manning shortages, and when I wasn't working or sleeping I was always in the hospital.  I'll be updating those misadventures and the reasons behind my continuing medical time in my LiveJournal.com blog once I get the time to backdate and update all of those missing months (and even add pics that've been stewing on my hard drive!).  TTFN!   

CHAIN IS BACK!!!!

Will be great to see (& hear?!?) you on the tracks, and when you have the time to post your updates.
