"Not an entry"

I just wanted to congratulate you on the good news of being able to keep your house and to say I found your story inspirational.

I couldn't agree more that there's always hope and prayers do get answered.

Sometimes it's nice to read about thing's turning out well and a nice reminder that no matter how bad thing's may seem, even when it goes on for a long time there's always hope, never give up.

Thank you for sharing your story and wishing you continued blessing's in the future.

Not an entry, just wanted to say congratulations and I hope things continue to improve. You're always a class act on these forums and I try (often failing) to model my online behavior to yours.
 
Sending good wishes and thoughts your way Ted. I know what it was like to be out of work for awhile and don't wish it on anyone, much less the hard time you and your family have had. I pray that things continue to get better for you, and because of the generosity I have been given here, if I did win I would then pass it on to one of my Scouts. I have a few new boys that could use a good knife.

Sincerely,
Griff
 
Your efforts are admirable Ted, I am very glad things are starting to be good again. Happy birthday when it comes and may this year be the the break through year.

Please don't consider this an entry I've just won a great knife.

Hey there Ted-

Sounds like you've had a tough row to hoe...


But your teaching your daughter, and anyone else that knows you a very valuable lesson.

NEVER GIVE UP.

Hope things continue to get better for you and yours-
 
Slow and steady wins the race, or something like that. Thank you for sticking it out and making the best of less than ideal conditions. Thanks for showing the rest of us that if can be done.

Sometimes I wonder how the lives of the other forum user are. I really hope you are able to keep your house, I can't imagine being trown out of my own home.

I'm in.
 
Ted, tough times my friend...very tough times, and I am overjoyed that you are coming through the other side, that's extremely good news, I would Rapt if you were to consider this an entry, this is a most generous giveaway-ESPECAILLY under these tough times, it makes the knives even more special.
Ed, I hope this Birthday is a birthday that you will enjoy like no other, now that the pressure is off a wee bit, the most important thing is around you - and they will help you celebrate the fineness of life Im sure!

Here is a very cool knife...beautiful knives Charlie!
 
THIS IS AN ENTRY. I'm liking the odds.
I have to congratulate you especially on losing all that weight. Should be so simple, but isn't. Especially when life stinks in general. I'm inspired to lose the ca 80 lbs surplussage on my 6'2" frame.
Thanks for the chance and best of luck to you.
 
C'mon folks don't be afraid to enter, this is open with minimum requirements so by the time drawing comes this should be full of entries, this is a very knice pocketable knife it's not a big canoe and it's on a slim frame with a single backspring, also very pocket friendly with no sharp edges except where they're supposed to be. ;)
 
Wow, Ted! What a roller coaster ride! I'm very happy to hear that your situation's looking more manageable these days, and that some of the dark clouds are lifting. Keep up the good work. :)
 
Ted, I hope your story inspires others to not give up even in the face of seemingly insurmountable obstacles. You have done great so far and though you are not in the clear yet, I have no doubt that your strength, tenacity, hope, and love for God and your family will see you through these still-tough times. Stay strong and know there are lots of folks in your corner! :thumbup:
 
Ted - I´m a little sorry to hear about the ups and downs in your life the last years. But somehow you managed it and this is great. Really impressive. Thanks for being part of this community and your contribution you are giving.

Usually I didn´t want to enter this GA - but I would be proud owning a knife if I can get the chance. So this is an entry. :)
 
I'll enter. I applaud your tenacity, and am glad you have been given the chance to keep your dream home. YOu are an inspiration, and I am happy to accept the offer of generosity, as an expression of your thanks to the powers that be. I'd be happy to carry such a fine knife from an even finer person.
 
It takes something to talk about all that you've dealt with like you did Ted, even among a group of people you consider friends. I'm glad things are on a better path for you and your family.

I've admired those Bokers and would be happy to own one, so I'm in.

I'll wish you an early happy birthday and toss in a picture of this old Waterville jack because it's built of sturdy stuff, just like you must be, and still kicking despite whatever it's been through. ;)
