Has Anyone Heard from Ryan (bigchillcar)?

Last time he posted here was August 13. He mentioned a new girlfriend. So either he is having one hell of a time with her or??????

No, but as you say, parts of his life seemed to be heading the right way. Hope he is all well. Real nice guy.

My awesomness out weighs yours by the width of Ryan's shredded pec's!

Come on Ryan, show Terry your shredded pec's!

Or maybe just your shorn scrotum???

I got a joke (spam) email from him a few weeks ago...but he has been slacking off here since applying himself elsewhere.

I talked to him three weeks ago and he was doing ok more or less.
More rough times but ok. He's always got a good story to tell though and this story will be just as good. I tried to call him last weekend but he hasn't called back.
He's always got a good story to tell though and this story will be just as good. Sadder but wiser.
The crazy mis-adventures of Bigchillcar. I swear he has as much drama in his life as that movie.

Maybe motion could lend Ryan a Ferrari for a few weeks? That might cheer him up...especially if the car was delivered by a Hooters girl.

gotta say that it's nice to be remembered. nope, rumors of my demise have been only slightly exaggerated.. i got married on august 15th after a rather short courtship (first marriage and at 40 years) and we're going through 'growing pains'..in fact already separated, but working through things gradually. i also began a very demanding job back in a prior career before my airline days..working as a researcher doing veterinary surgery, etc. it's been a while and the hours and learning curve have been exhausting..a couple days a week getting up at 3 am doesn't help. anyone else hate 12-hour days?? so, i've been missing not only the board and my many good friends here, but not seeing as much of my local family, workout maybe once a week as opposed to the old 5-day per week routine. you're supposed to gain weight when you marry, but i've managed to drop 15-20 in the past couple months..go figure. thanks for noticing my absence, fellas, and for getting my attention. my apologies for being out of the loop. hell, i just cranked my 911 for the first time in weeks tonight. now that it's cool here in arkansas, she'll be getting driven to work everyday and not the 'air-conditioned' pickup i bought back in march to survive the arkansas summer.. robert is correct (74cookiecutter)..i'm a definite drama king down here..lol.

Been there done that.

Get into counseling right away, your new employer my have an Employee Assistance Program (EAP). Take advantage of the program.

Good Luck in your marriage and I hope everything turn out for the best for you and your new bride.
