That is fantastic news. Were you able to choose between a nice shapely girlie leg or did you opt for the hairy man leg?  ;) 

Really all kidding aside, couldn't imagine what you've gone through, and boy, what a great Christmas present. Not sure about you "status" but how soon do you start chasing after the young ladies? Oops, sorry.

And here's me planning to cut off your other one for the crappy jokes you tell on IRC....

Be careful you have them the same length....otherwise next time you're crossing the Nullabor you might end up going in ever decreasing circles and dissappear up yer own bum...;)

I just wondered if you are going to customize your leg. Maybe give it a nice skin? At the very least, a nice wallpaper would be prudent.

Good News, Nimbin. If you ever need encouragement read the book or watch the film 'Reach for the Sky' - The life of a famous WW2 Pilot Douglas Bader who lost his legs in in a plane accident before the war. Amazing story of triumph through adversity.  :)

Way to go, Nimbin! Lexan would be my first choice, followed by titanium fishnet...
