well....

[walkin jack]

To paraphrase an old saying, There's a LAST time for every thing. As I write this, my last post here, I have a tear in my eye and a lump in my throat. But the time has come. I would never leave y'all without saying goodbye. I dislike goodbyes but to just disappear without a word would be disrespectful and rude. I lack the word skills to express my love for this forum. Lee, the moderators, and all the members. The quality of my life for the last 12 years has been tremendously enriched by my association with this group.

I have learned a lot about guns, life, and myself. As for my reasons for making this decision...well, I guess just general circumstances. Not all of them are related to health and physical condition. I won't bother you with all the boring details. just know that I will keep you all in my heart. My deepest and most sincere thanks to all for putting up with me and allowing me to hang out here. The friendship I found d here has helped me through some "stuff" and to say I will miss you is a whopper of an understatement.

I wish you all good luck, good health and happiness

Best regards on the other side. I've been told that there are 3 key events in life. You are born, you live, and you die. The first and last are out of your control. A rich life is a blessing. Success!

We just lost Iggy, and now you're leaving too. This is turning out to be a very bad day on the Forum. I hate to see a fellow Texan leave -- it's getting kind of lonely around here. We will certainly miss you! I'm sure I can speak for my fellow Forum members when I say, feel free to change your mind and resume your posts any time you wish. In the meantime, I hope all goes well for you down the road.

Jack, One special thing about this forum is having friends one has never met.
You are one of those friends. Most on this forum, I believe, would say the same.
