Hey Man that was awsome to watch. Thanks for posting that it's cool to see Bill up and going again. It looks like he's going to do ok seem to be somewhat comfy it will take a little time. But again thanks COD.

Just finished all 26 pages of this thread at midnight here in Reno. Thanks COD for all you've done for Bill, and for reassuring all of us that the spirit of helping a fellow human is still alive in this great country. Your character shows through in the way you take the time to respond to every member and your constant reflecting of the spot-light away from yourself. You are a class act, sir, and I salute you. God bless you and yours...

RIGHTEOUS!!!! I'll bet he didn't sleep all night, hearing those badazz pipes in his head all night! Talk about MOTIVATION!
Saw him test the handling a bit, and he's feeling it out, piece at a time - way ta go!
