I guess Zeke is alright, right?

No posts from Milty lately; he seemed to be getting burned out, so I assume he's just taking one of his sabbaticals....?

I've always liked his point of view. Not necessarily mine, but he's never wishy-washy!

Just wondering about him the other day. I had a question about welding, and then thought that I had not seen any posts from him as of late.

I just left a message for him. I'm at a family wedding, so I asked him to text me or check in on the thread.

He is still posting on another board, as of today, so I am sure he is OK.

I wonder if he bought DrDogface's yellow hotrod 911.

Apparently supposedly the buyer lives in Long Beach...

No new purchases. No interest left for much anything Porsche. Will be keeping the Boxster, so I show up on the Boxster forum from time to time. Lost interest in PPOT as well.

Then there was the PM inviting me to leave. Turned out to be a good idea. I should never say anything though, because there is always the one or 2 ass holes that say don't let the door hit you in the ass on the way out.

I won't.

What?

What's that about?

I know you're too classy to tell us who it was, but why would you quit the clubhouse because some loser "invited" you to leave?

Also, if there are other reasons, why not just take a break... why make it all or nuthin'?

You're a good guy that actually adds to our board. In your shoes I wouldn't be going anywhere. Remember: some people take message boards incredibly seriously...no need to dignify those persons comments with a reply or action. You can't always be right or always have the flavor of the month opinion but that's life. I vote stay.

I think Milt may be going through some kind of restless period in his life. Remember he left the board some time back for a while & returned. He changed his board handle from Zeke to Milt & back to Zeke. I agree he brings substance to this forum, but sometimes it just feels like a time in life to move in some other direction. If that's what he's feeling, I hope he finds it.

Guy who bought my 911 does live in Long Beach but is not a Pelican after all. Strange that I don't miss that car at all. Guess I "grew out of" the P car thing. Still appreciate them but don't want one any more.

I like the richness he adds as well. Interesting guy, although sometimes the posts come off a bit tortured (I'm sure mine do too, so maybe that doesn't matter so much).

I hope he changes his mind and decides to hang around here again.

Zeke/Milt - for my money, you're one of the good guys on this board. I hope you come back when you're ready. In the meantime, a whole lotta guys & the ladies are going to miss you.
Take care of yourself & stay well
Cheers
JB

Milt's a good guy, and he adds to the board.

The internets isn't for everyone, though.
