going for broke....... wait, I'm already there!
« on: April 19, 2014, 02:39:52 PM »
HI guys, I've been on here a long time and haven't tried to sell stuff. Probably because I quickly become attached to them!  But, I just put new flooring and tile in my house. So, it's time to try and sell a few things.  I'm not sure about prices.  But, I guess I have to start somewhere!  I forgot to list a bunch of proto sockets I have, but I need to take pictures first.
     It's been a long journey to get to pictures! So, now I'll start another one. You folks are all friends of mine. I do love this site!  I hope that everyone is doing well. For those of you that have come to know me -- I have big news: I'm on day 67 of being sober!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
     I wanted to thank all of you have given me advice, listened to me, and shared some very personal stories with me about life in general or struggles with addictions or both. Who would have thought I'd wind up talking to some of the greatest persons via a "tool talk" site?!
Thanks goes out to all of you-- I truly mean it.
cheers
bird.

Bird,

You have my utmost respect and admiration. Overcoming destructive habits and learning to be better should be goals for all of us.

Keep up the good work.

Yours kindly,

Larry

You still have those vlchek wrenches you sent me pictures of...ohh, two years ago or so, that we never did strike a deal on? You never did get back to me after I said I'd take them.
