Right with you, there. I wish he would come back.
I am the Doctor, and THIS... is my SPOON!

I came here just as Sushi bowed out. I REALLY wish he'd return! Everyone here speaks so highly of him.

I pray nightly for the second coming of sushi.

I check in almost every day, even though I don't feel like I have enough to offer in most cases. Everyone has always been very kind and gracious to me, and the casual nature of this forum keeps me coming back. It is, thanks to those of you that continue to participate, still enjoyable for me. I learn here. I do not have time to establish many internet "homes", and this remains the one I choose.
I miss Sushi, too. And chesseroo, when so inclined, conveyed his knowledge and experience in an exceedingly clever way. I continue to deeply value the relationships I have with so many of you. Though we've never met, I consider bigwill a friend, and I would certainly not hesitate to look up Doc Orgel if I am ever lucky enough to be in Kentucky. 2x6spds remains a mentor on tubes and autos. I eagerly anticipate the day when I force Ray to drag me around the golf course. Jack has given me, god help me, a sincere desire to go to Cleveland. Between sidvicious, bren and neverhappy, I now have friends in the Canadian heartland. Having visited Texas several times, I yearn to return to the Republic and share a beer with bigjohn, bray and whatfurrer. I know that capn_pickard and I would hit it off, perhaps at the Old Ebbitt Grill next time I'm in the District. I am certain that, someday, Peter, Ken, Adam and I will share a pint at the Toronado. For those many others who I admire and respect but have neglected, please know that your contributions to the fabric of this community are appreciated, and that I remain grateful for my extended Axiom family. When you're near Seattle, give a holler.
ps - I've seen The Hip three times, including at a smallish bar on the Road Apples tour about ten years ago. They Rock. Fully, Completely, indeed.

Speaking of The Toronado, they're having a barleywine festival Feb. 19 - 26. Is that reason enough to drag the family south?
(Sorry! Just pretend you're all in the beer thread. )

Tom - eloquently put, as always.
Except for the part about wanting to go to Cleveland; NOBODY is buying that one. By the way, I am equally as happy to drag you around the 19th hole rather than the golf course

Ray's great, but don't let him show you the 20th hole.

Ray, typically, you've missed the point entirely. The dragging me around the golf course wasn't SUPPOSED to make you happy. And wouldn't. There is nothing more painful to accomplished golfers like yourself than witnessing the awesome power of a truly horrific slice for three hours.
But yes, we'd probably both be happier with libations and music
Peter, I'll check my calendar for February, but I don't think it looks good. Someday, my friend, someday. You guys go and give a full report. I can send you a picture of me to take with you to the bar and you can sportingly mock my absence.
