Well, now I can really kick myself. I knew where he lived. I bought some stuff off him a few years back.
Tried to locate his house a couple times last month, and failed, but never went to the trouble of looking up
his address in my archives :(

MS affected his motor skills, but never affected his mind. Not sure what did affect his mind :)
He was sharp, mentally, but pretty much in an alternate reality when it came to a lot of subjects.

I know he lived on Virginia Ave., but don't know the exact address.
Nothiing affected his mind - he just thought he was a know-it-all. I used to talk to him a lot at the VFW - was actually likable.

And the rest of us aren't know-it-alls? He was a decent guy, though. Sorry he had crappy health.

He used to talk to me about football and knew nothing. Believe me, and he thought football knowledge was his strong suit. lol

Frankly, I think he just let you think that. He did have a pretty good knowledge
of all things mid-evil, but there wasn't a whole lot of interest in that, on here.

Medieval. There may not be interest, but some of you are stuck in that era. :))

Thanks. There is a lot to be said for NOT being a progressive.

I was being cynical. The man knew little about sports, as he obviously couldn't play them.
But he was likable. At least he and I used to talk a lot when we were at the VFW.
You would think most people in his condition would be pissed at the world, but he accepted it.

He lived with a debilitating disease which no doubt limited what he could experience and it was pretty obvious that the internet was where he got most of his information, good and bad.

Of all the internet sites out there, I am honored and humbled that he chose to spend time here and that we could provide him with some social interaction that he wouldn't otherwise have.

So sorry to hear about his death. I wondered about him not too long ago--I noticed he hadn't commented in quite a while. It was after school ended, so it was after he passed. He will be missed.
