Hi all,

Bad news...


quote:

ORIGINAL: Jim D Burns

Direct from email, but he was already back in the hospital as of a week or so ago and only recently got his laptop brought to him there.

He stated he has just now taken a turn for the worse and they are now flying him to the city hospital and he will not be allowed to have his laptop anymore, and "if" the ops work he'll be out of commission for a very long time. It does not look good.

Jim



Leo "Apollo11"


let's just pray it DOES work. He's going to rip someone's arm off to get that laptop.

I think that over the years our influence on you has been stronger than yours on us. Being late to wars used to be our thing and getting into p!ssing contests with the fuzzies in various desert regions yours.

I wonder if Dixie's film career may be interfering with his gameplay responsibilities?

Yeah, I guess belonging to the jet set is quite exhausting.

I'm not a pro. But the race across america sticks to my mind since i first heard about it.



You have to be into serious sleep deprivation if you want to be competitive in that one. I wish you luck if that is what you want to do.

At the rate he was going, I think he would have easily made it past your house.

Kind of a downer: I officially ended my long-standing PBEM today (vs. USSHenrico). The game was in September 1943.

No communication or turns for two months kind of killed it. Prior to that, we'd only played a few turns over the previous three months.

I think it's clear that either RL interfered or his heart was no longer in it. Too bad.

I'll have to take out all my frustration on AW1Steve now.

Give him my best regards, Torsten. And please put in a subtle hint that if we're ever within hailing distance, I'll invite myself for a boat ride.

Well, since the Brits havent shown up and I dont think that Scott will be able to find anyone to replace John, I'm pretty much free....
