Spending time with his family, camping, fishing etc...

mike certainly bared his soul before he left.

Mike (Lubemaster) is one of my favorite Pelicans! He's still around, just not here... I'm betting he will be back...

In addition to 'life', I think Mike is the president of the local PCA chapter, Mavericks. He's still getting his Porsche fix.

Any news on his wife?

Red, whats up man? you selling the 914???

I too miss Lube

Mike is a very funny guy and a good man. I just checked and I've still got his cell# in my phone so if I make it to TX., I'll hopefully get to meet him. Just missed him in LV once, talked on phone. :cool:

Yup! I just fixed the very minor rust bubbles, and re-painted it. It looks fantastic!

Me and mike were supposed to meet up once in O-Town but it didnt work out.

Thanks Joe. :) There are many good people on here. Glad to have met alot of them.
I agree that the politcal stuff turned alot of people off. I try to avoid it. I still stick my nose in there once in a while to see what goin on. But rarely get involved.
Most of my time on here is at work. ( I know, thats wrong). Or if I am putzing around in my garage and have the comp on. Other than that, too much other
stuff to do.
"Lifes a garden, dig it!"

If I walked down to the sushi place for lunch, would he be there?

I met up with Mike a couple of years ago in Seattle. He is a great guy...I hope he is doing well. Now that I am in Texas, it would be nice to meet up with him again.

Of topic: The split of OT with the separate politics forum has made Pelican a much more enjoyable place.

That just seems so wrong out of context...

Wow...I don't know what to say. I really had no idea. Kinda like sitting in on your own funeral.

After (and even a few before) my 10,000 I really had become burn't out with writing and thinking. I put in my final edits on the book around that time. That did a number on my brain and energy. Now I'm waiting for the reviews to come in prior to pressing it.

I also had a bit of 'MT Head'. For the first time in many many years I just had zero original thoughts. No sense in blabbering on when there is absolutely nothing to contribute. I didn't even have the energy to steal a thought!

Well all of that has changed. I can feel the ideas, questions and opinions welling up inside. The past few weeks have afforded themselves as a form of intellectual foreplay.

So hang on ya bunch of open recepticles...daddy gonna blow his top soon enough...

(BTW, thanks for all the kind words and thoughts...I missed you too!)

That has never stopped me before, just ask PWD...

Welcome back, Mike!

Holy shat he wrecked his post count for us.

Mike,

You are one of the good guys! (well actually there are a bunch of great thinkers here on this board).

But good to see you post.

Dan

Glad to hear from you Mike!

ah, the peddler of snake oil's returns...
praise Zinc and the friction gods..
