Jeez... i had no idea. me and Craig go all the way back to to our AK days, back around 2006/2007 or so.

a silly question he was kind enough to come along out of nowhere and attempt to answer for me, in regards to the occasional "static snap"
i was hearing somewhere within the confines of my stereo receiver's chassis when it was powered off.

hell, i never even knew what a "SuperMetal" cassette was like until he gifted me one of his 1985 version TDK MA-XGs, a treasured gift to this very day.

he even picked up locally, and gifted me, the like-new-in-box PIONEER GR-777 EQ
that was then one of the final required components of my personal, all-PIONEER dream-system i was then still in the midst of attempting to assemble.

here's to your full and expedient recovery, Stuster, and Thank You for your friendship through these years...

Tasuke, you have been a good friend to just about anyone in general on forums. Even my niece has had a brain tumor recently. Why this is going on so much God only knows.

I had to discover this news as well as her mother's diabetes (my sister) at my birthday picnic last Saturday...I turned 52 on Tuesday.

BTW I was planning to get another round of new blanks sent out your way but with all the bike building for me and my niece and two nephews it's going to be August before I both recover and can afford to eat better again.

My older nephew is running around on a Columbia '1937' I got at a good used price and he his brother and dad love it. The younger boy gets a 1995 Schwinn deluxe springer done up as much like a Phantom as I can and I'm trying to finish a 60s Huffy for the niece that I've worked on now and then for about 2 years.

PS She graduated high school last month and got a ton of stuff from me as well.

We're all hoping beyond hard for Craig.

God bless. I miss Stuwee's humor...hopefully he will be able to humor us some more.

I remember the last time he was going through the same thing, so sorry to hear that it's back again.

My prayers are for him, such a horrible thing to endure, especially for a second time.

Sincerely hoping that you pull through and that autism returns to being the trendy thing amongst the kids (not tumors, as my niece also had).

My friend on Yesfans in Britain had her second one removed a couple years ago and now I can see the connection between tumors and behavior...we all know what it was about now.

Miss you like crazy and want you back to your Stumeister best.

I am so sorry to hear about this. I haven't been on the board for a long time myself, having had a Desmoplastic Melanoma surgery and a month of radiation, that I am still recovering from. I hope everything turns out well. I know how scared he must be. I hadn't realized he had fought this fight before. I pray that all goes well and he has a speedy recovery. Through the miracle of modern medicine and with God's help, he will be back here on the forum soon.....We love you Craig..

Nope, none yet. His mom was supposed to text some folks from a list he gave her so who knows. I left 3 messages at his house phone thinking John might answer but no luck there either. Voicemail is full now. I dont know which hospital either...
