Does anyone know where Charles lives in Staten Island?

DS is such a big part of his life~~and all our lives.
Maybe we can send him cards when he gets home?

It could be nice to send Charles cards - but it wouldn't be nice to post his address publicly without his permission. So, if anyone does know, please only reveal the address in a private message or e-mail. Thanks.  [ghost_smiley]

Well, here's one thing I can post publicly:
My film, Next Year in Jerusalem, makes it's DVD debut on 4/23,
Yes, the date is set.

And Charles, who told me how much he liked it, when he bought the VHS in '99, gets a free disc as a get well present.

Charles,

I am just now reading this post and am so sorry to hear about what all you have been going through.

I pray all goes well with your surgery, my friend, and that you'll be back on your feet, pain-free, in no time.

Let me know if there is anything I can do for you.

Paul

 [blob6]I'm back from the hospital!  The surgery was a success, though right now I'm moving slow with a metal cane and have roughly six inches of surgical staples in my back.  Thank you all for your thoughts and wishes.  For the next few weeks I'll be having physical therapy and will be watching a LOT of DVDs.  It's moments like this that makes one feel proud of being part of such a unique group- DS Lives! (and I'm not doing too badly either!) [thewave] [crowdhappy]

So glad to hear it!  Just take it slow and don't overdo and get ready for the 2009 festival in NYC.  Chances are I may be at that one as well.  Sure will miss you this year.

Take care.

Certainly- I'm now back at work, and my physical therapy continues.  The hard part will be going on a diet to lose pounds as not to aggravate my back any further. Other than some residual aches & pains, I'm doing much better now.
