Hey Guys,

After a long abscence I just thought I would let everyone know I'm back in the mix here again--like it or not!

I had a major family crisis that diverted my attention from collecting for the past few months. After many, many tests my wifes doctors discovered she had cancer. Needless to say priorities changed real quick. So after a major surgery and treatment she just got a clean bill-of-health from her oncologitst today, so I feel like I can relax a little and get back into collecting mode again. We're not completely out-of-the woods yet but I can breathe a little easier now. At least enough to get back into the game.

I'm not sure how much I'll be able to contribute to the site, since I have'nt really gotten any wiser since I've been gone, but I'm always willing to share my witty commentary with everyone! I know not everyone on here appreciates my smart-ass comments but they're coming anyway..... You've been warned Joe! Twisted Evil

Thanks for the welcome back guys. I really missed being on here.

I debated about posting all that info, and it sounded even heavier after I read it again after posting. I hope it didn't sound too "doom and gloom" because things really do look pretty optimistic after todays doctor visit. I hope I didn't bring everyone down too much.

I really do appreciate everyone's support and caring comments. It means a lot. It's a great bunch of guys on here. That's why I keep coming back....or at least try to keep coming back! Laughing

Thanks again guys for all the support. My family and I really appreciate all the well-wishes and kind words.

Now on a less serious note. That's really great news that there might be another raffle in the works for Chris J to clean up on. I'm sure he's very excited Rolling Eyes For the rest of us losers I'm getting my Panchi worshipping done early so here it goes.

Twisted Evil Twisted Evil Twisted Evil bow bow bow bow bow bow Twisted Evil Twisted Evil Twisted Evil
(That's for you Joe--errr....I mean Panchi.....I mean Joe unsure --I'll be getting back to one of you on that whole hugging thing!)

Brad,

A moving post mate on a serious illness that affects nearly everyone of us - either directly or indirectly though loved ones.

I am really pleased on hearing the good news though and wish you and you lovely wife all the best. Smile

(Great to hear that you have time for TIG too!)
