Gee Kilo-Kilo-

Thanks for the unsolicited analysis of Tim for us...and
particularly under an anonymous name. Just wondering
if this is how you treat your 'friends', what we should
expect from your comments about 'nonfriends'.

Tim is blessed ... he is a great guy as we all know

across the country ... many who probably never met
him. He used to go
to a couple of meets a season .... competing or selling
stuff ... and
it was always great to hang with Tim. However, over
the last few
years, he has become something of a hermit ... running
his business 14
x 7 from his basement office ... never going to meets
anymore. He
really has sounded burnt-out and borderline bitter
the last few times I
have talked with him ... I hoped my trolling would
elicit some
supportive comments to remind him how much he is liked
in the community
.... that he should get out ... go to a few meets
next season ... and
meet old and new friends again. Merry Xmas, Tim.

Um,

Is this an international discussion list, or is it
the society page from a small-town newspaper?

Inquiring minds wanna know.

It's actually a local node of the international discussion list,
populated primarily by frustrated Northeastern (US) pilots facing 4
months of non-flyable weather. Don't worry, it will only get worse...
Eagerly awaiting the first salvo in the annual "PW-5s are the reason
for the downfall of western civilization as we know it" campaign.

From beautiful downtown Jersey City New Jersey, where it's cold and

raining - again.

Think locally, talk globally. It's the American way!

Who gave write permission to these foreigners anyway?

Cheers!

Before this thread gets too far off topic...let me just chime in to say -

KK, in a strange way, I'm glad you made that original post. However you
intended it, it doesn't really matter, but gives us all a chance to give Tim a
MUCH deserved "thank you" for the many, many years of GREAT service.

THANK YOU TIM!! Your service is Superb and Very much appreciated.

Same here. I just wanna remind the Neds in the local
node that they should give a nod to the international
list by noting that they don't need to know all this
-- but you knowed that.
