Good to be back ........
« on: November 23, 2006, 04:24:32 AM »
I have been offline for about 20 months. I had another user name (which I long forgot) but I sure remember some of you guys' names. I went offline because my computer crashed and then a fairly long list of other events have kept me away. I have had 3 totally unrelated surgeries in the past 13 months (none life threatening.) My father first had a stroke in March of 2005 and has gone downhill ever since. He has now been given a week to a month to live because of his bone cancer. He has suffered enough and it is his time and he knows it. He is ready.

Anyway, I also got married in April after being single the past 11 years .... it's a very good thing guys. She is pretty special and she bought me this new laptop for an early Christmas present.

Well, this feels good as it is almost like coming back home. I especially remember getting my first NEF and now have three in my collection. My son is a senior in college and soon more funds will be available to buy more.

 ;D Welcome back I went away awhile back and am glad I returned. This place is made up of a group of nice men and women and it's a pleasure to chat with such a good group of people. I'll pray for your and your Dad and family. It's tough to lose a parent I know I lost my Mom the end of July due to a massive stroke I understand how you feel. God will bless. Jess

bigjeepman is indeed a valid user name at this site. Last visit was 538 days ago. If you want to again use that name I can help. Do you recall the e-mail address you had back then? Hint I suspect it's your real name at the ISP you used then.

Let me know if you want me to get your password changed so you can use your old name. You made 318 posts under it.

Graybeard .... my email address at that time was jdprior@msn.com to the best of my recollection. I guess it would be kind of nice to have my old name back. I appreciate your help.

quickdtoo .... I sure remember you as you always provided sound advice. This is a great group and I missed the friendship and helpful advice I experienced in the past.

Thank all of you who responded .... it is well appreciated. What a great group to be associated with.

Yupper that's the one on file for it. I'll assign you a new password and e-mail it to your new e-mail address and also put your correct e-mail address on the old account.

Thanks for your help Graybeard in getting my old username "bigjeepman" for me. What a great feeling to be back and be even a very small part of a great group of people. So now ... "outofaction" is now out - of - action.

Now you're REALLY back. I think I'm gonna hafta delete that outofaction account in order to be able to get your current e-mail address on your old account. I've changed it three times now and it seemed to take it but when I checked again the old one was back. STRANGE.
