Latest news: Rick managed to take 10 steps this morning, is extremely hoarse from the breathing tubes he had down his throat, and was shocked to learn he has basically been in la-la land for 18 days. He still suffers a bit from what they call "ICU psychosis" and gets confused. (Not to the point he'll be asking about your Corvette...) He nonetheless said he wished there was something he could do for all of us, and Colleen told him the best thing would be for him walk out of there once he's well. Let's hope that happens soon!

Wow!  Good news!  I dare say he's lost a considerable amount of weight. Are we ready to see a skinny Kopec?

With all that's going on at this time, it's great to hear news like this.  Colleen can stand behind and snap the "nerf whip". It's for who want to be strict, but gentile.
Ok, now we know the truth, Rick had SAAC 45 cancelled because he couldn't be there
Keep him up and walking, as for confused, aren't we all a little like that
Hurry up and get well
Owned since 1971, now driven over 245,000 miles, makes me smile every time I drive it and it makes me feel 21 again.😎

I guess if you dont have the convention, your streak of not missing a convention is intact. Very clever. Best wishes moving forward
