    Dude, as you well know, I flick you great amounts of crap in these parts. That said, however, I wanted to let you know that I really sympathize with the health fights you are battling. I read those accounts of your ongoing struggles in amazement. I wouldn't wish that on anyone!

    Anyway, just wanted you to know that I'm pulling for you....and that, upon reading all that stuff, I can now understand why you get the way that you do. ;)

    Cheers. :cheers:

    I just looked you up on IMDB out of curiosity. Hadn't realized you'd appeared as a delivery person on Curb Your Enthusiasm. Dang. Lucky dog.

    Thumbs up. I always supported KS. I was wondering though if ABM can understand why I get the way I do?:dunno: Of course I did go to highschool in the sixties and I am half Norwegian.

    Just gave me the idea to do the same. Look at this from his messageboard:

    any truth to that?

    That doesn't seem like the "appreciation thread". Imagine how each of us would look if there was a message board devoted to our individual behaviors on a daily basis... I've been an ass in public plenty of times, there just wasn't a message board to write about me.

    It's sad that the thread got directed towards criticism of one of our posters. I can imagine someone seeing me on one of my " much less than perfect" days, and evaluating my character online.:tsktsk: Personal attacks.................it's been happening a lot lately. I think we need a sticky thread for that so we don't keep changing all the thread topics.:drumroll:

    I have had the pleasure of meeting Eric and catching up with him around the country 4 or 5 times. He was nothing but very cool and down to earth to me. He is a bigtime Blazer fan and just has a very special way of showing said fandom! He is def a cool guy!

    He's cool. But sometimes I seriously can't tell if he's being sarcastic or being serious.

    I'm usually good at detecting sarcasm. Eric is the only one that has ever stumped me.

    The most shocking thing I learned about Eric from his IMDB page is the dude is 35 years old. Holy crap, he looks at least 10-years younger. Being blessed with a youthful appearance if definitely an asset in his line of work.

    I met the infamous King Speed at a clipper game really briefly. I was quite drunk.

    I enjoy reading King's posts. Love him or hate him, you have to admire his passion for the Blazers' and the game in general.
