Sheesh, I must be cursed.

First off, apologies for the delay in getting the Stomper passaround knife off. It goes out today.

Last week: Had someone close to me in ICU, my dogsitter bailed at the last moment so I could not attend SHOT, my new (well, bought slightly used) laptop was fried by a power fluctuation (yes it was hooked to a surge protector but that did not save it), and it will be awhile before I can save up the $ for a new one. So, I will not be online nearly as much for awhile.

I'll pop in as often as possible.

Ugh!

Brian,

I have a Dell D600 laptop I can send you to use until you replace yours. It certainly isn't top of the line anymore but it still works good. 1.4 Ghz processor....1 gig of ram...15 inch screen running Win XP. Shoot me an email if your interested.

That sucks Brian, sorry to hear of the misfortunes.

Remember, it’s always darkest before the dawn.

Take care my friend.

I have to say - this forum is unlike any other I ever frequent. What a great bunch of people.

Nice gesture morrowj!!!:thumbup:
 
For what it's worth, the SHOT show was not as mind-blowing as it was the past couple of years. All the same manufacturers, but only a few really pulled out all the stops. Just solid users mostly.
 
That sucks. Hope you can live without visiting as much. Maybe it won't be too hard. Just think about knives .. wait, that would make it worse..
 
Sorry to hear it Brian, hope things turn around for you soon. I had a computer die on me last year...replacing it unexpectedly really sucks.
 
Sorry for your troubles.
I hope that the person close to you has a rapid and full recovery.
We look forward to having you back here with us often in the near future.
