Lost job

[Sonik]

Randy,

I share your conundrum sir. 24yrs and counting doing what I do and the current state of affairs doesn't bode well for me being allowed to stick around much longer unfortunately. You know what the difference is between you and I though??? (Besides the fact you're a heathen) You're a hell of a lot smarter than I am! I remember you talking about selling out and retiring (read: go fishing) a while back. Well, life has a funny way of giving you a nudge every now and then and honestly, I think you'll be much happier in the end. You'll have more time to focus on the WHAT instead of the WHEN. The wife and I really need to get over and spend some time with you guys...its been entirely too long.


I think quite a few of us around here owe you a debt of gratitude for your contributions to our sport. I know I most likely wouldn't be here or still own my Viper had it not been for your help early on....and for that I thank you. If you need anything, you know the offer is always on the table.

Damn I gotta comment this.."send a print and say "make it work" as their draftsmen over the years have not been real sharp."

Machinist back Illinois (Reynolds (Aluminum) Metals) and I'd get some blueprint something to make and what they can do on paper, can't be made real life with out some mods. Spent a lot time explaining the nerds "heres' how it CAN be made though.

Anyway, the biggest part facing you is the "downsizing"! One thing at a time, and next thing ya know? It happened!

Rock from your posts I have read over the years I feel you are intelligent as well as talented. You will not only persevere you will enjoy "doing your thing". And you are correct that you will be busyier than ever. Have a great retirement and cherish this next adventure. Gary
