"I'm on a Highway to Recovery"

So here I am on a nice Saturday night. I have been doing both Physical, and Mental Therapy. Playing My Gibson SG is just like everything else that I Do. Yes Playing My Guitar is a great WAY TO IMPROVE The Muscles in My left Hand. I am working so that I am able to have more Mobility up and Down the Neck of the Guitar.

Ok since this is a large group of People. I want to ask if anyone could help me? I need to find a dictaphone with cassettes, the old style, this way I can record my days in my voice and carry with me my memory. My brain won't give up stored information until the information is spoken, my sister is the one who goes into the previous days and events whether falls recently or one from years ago that resulted in a Grand Mal seizure two weeks later, this way I can play in my own voice my memories and trigger my brain myself to give up move forward the memory I need. If any of you can help me find one I would be grateful.

My sister helped me put this request together.
Have a great day and great flights,
Chris

Chris,

If you have a modern cell phone, you don't need anything else.

All modern cell phones can record videos with sound, and many can record sound without video. Video uses much more storage than audio, but you can minimize the video component by blocking the camera lens. The video compression algorithms will generate a much smaller video file if the image through the lens isn't changing at all (as when completely blocked). Just put a small bit of black electrical tape over the lens whenever you want to record voice. You can play them back on your phone or upload them to a computer for longer term storage.

' SANDIEGO HANG GLIDING TRAUMA


Thanks Bob for the tip on recording what I say. I was thinking about one of those "OLD SCHOOL" tape recorders. I wonder if I will be able to find someone is selling one?

FLYING:

Flying, is always on My Mind. I think about You Bob, and other Hwk Pilots those who live down in Sand Diego. You Guys are so blessed, For the main source of Trauma. Trauma that that is induced upon a Pilot each Day is: Just which site I will Fly From Today? Then after Your Flight. You must Question Yourself. Did I choose the Correct Site from which to Launch My HG?

So I still Harbor that I will Fly again. Heck the way I see it; Now that I am weighing right around the same weight that I weighed way back in High School. Yes on My last Flight Thirteen Years ago, My Body weight the morning of March 28th. 2010 was Two Hundred Ninety Eight Pounds. But then I went and did the; "POUND DIET". Well the weight Simply melted off My Body. This Morning this Six Foot and a Half Inch Tall Man. But now it is becoming quite slow regarding the Rate at Which I am loosing Weight. It might just come down to My going up in the Air. Then doing an intentional Pounding, Ouch!. It is like this if One's Quest is to lose say a Hundred Pounds. Then the Piper must be Paid, Paid with Pain!

Anoter thought; Does anyone know where I will be able to get Myself an Old School recording Device? One that uses' Cassette Tapes?

Maybe I am Merly Kidding Myself. I might not Fly Again. I mean I have not exactly had a {CHEERING SECTION} Making Noises about My ever recovering. Well I do have One Doctor Who has spoken to My to Friends at My Barbeque in Brentwood |Maybe Five Years ago; "I do not think that Chris is One and Done". That I am not. One in done would mean that I had not recovered to the Point where I am now. Or Where I will say in Two Years. I am in it to Win it Definitely Yes, I want it, I want to Win it, I want a Hundred Percent Recovery, or More than a Hundred Percent Recovery.
