I sent him and email to see how he was, hoping the email was still well. He is now in Walla Walla close to his kids and all as his last surgery seemed to do more harm than good. There his kids can help his wife with taking care of him. He has trouble typing as he has no feeling in his left arm and his right is almost useless. Having a lot of pain issues which sometimes sends him to the hospital for relief. He says he quit the boards as it was just too difficult to type anymore. I replied and let him know he wasn't forgotten and people were asking what happened to him. Told him someone mentioned gary's sausages at the get together did him in, so let him know that although i don't remember anyone cooking those but Flip that blaming gary sounded good so we would just pretend it was his fault.
i totally understand the typing difficulty as i only have issues mostly with my left and the pinky being the worst. I hate cap lock which is what my pinky finger constantly is hitting instead of the A!
So now we know the rest of the story. He moved to onion land, home of the sweet walla walla onion.
