He asked me to forward this message.

"I am taking a sabbatical for personal reasons that have nothing to do with the board and I miss all of them". 

He will see your comments in this thread.  smile

Andrew,Thanks for the heads up...I would've definitely thought that a share from anyone would not send you away,in fact it would bring you a way to search  out the solution  that worked for you...You were actually the last one to say "some times things piss you off" (paraphased etc)Your ESH is very valuable and I have learned a lot from you.There are no Big I's or little U's here,were all in this thing together!!I will pray things work out for you and hope to see you back ,when you can get here..Peace and serenity...c ya soon!smile :)

AGO! If you are lurking.....................come back! You cracked me up and you were a real positive to the site! You told it as you saw it with very little side sauce. That is refreshing in todays world. I considered you the best "technician" on the board and the most willing to pursue a point to its origin. Its an opinion board! You are never going to make everyone happy! We are human and are prone to errors in perception about how things are projected! I am probably the most perfect poster on this site, but you were a close second!ashamed I also want Jerry F to come back.  If you guys need the space thats fine, but come back when you had a break.  You are actually being selfish and "holding back" on your duties to "reach others" if you leave us hanging.  Seriously, please check back and at least tell us how you are guys are doing. We..........care......about.............you!!!
Tom
P.S. I really think a quote from the movie "Anchorman" will sum this up nicely:
Champ Kind to Ron Burgandy: "We need you. Hell, I need you. I'm a mess without you. I miss you so damn much. I miss being with you, I miss being near you. I miss your laugh. I miss your scent; I miss your musk. When this all gets sorted out, I think you and me should get an apartment together."

Dean, Thanks for keeping us all in the know.  I'm very glad to hear that AGO is taking a break for personal reasons.  I like to think that we can all get along and progress in the this thing together.  His knowledge and experience with AA will be missed by moi.

Ago,
Nice to hear that it's just a sabbitical and you will be returning.  You were honest and very knowledgeable about AA and the way the original members meant it to be.  By the BB of AA.  You are funny too!  Sometimes we take ourselves to serious and some of the jokes or pic art you posted cracked me up............  biggrin  Just when I needed it.   I hope to hear from you soon.

Hope all goes well in your world....AGO---I did like your approach to things. Your posts educated as well as added levity at times to this deadly serious disease known as alcoholism.
You also boiled things down to the bare basics at times when necessary.
Come back when you can....know that you have added to my arsenal of maintaining my recovery day by day!!
