Happy birthday buddy! I know you kids are going through rough times, but in the words of my dad.. "FIGHT!"

I heard a story where a guy crashed in an airplane up in the mountains one time.. Landed in a lake, so he ended up surviving the crash. After realizing he had no radio or a way to contact help, he took the pistol that he had with him and took his life. A few hours later a rescue chopper found his plane and his body. Moral? Sometimes when it feels like you can't go on any longer, you are closer to the end of the tunnel than you think. You just gotta hang in there.

dang it - i KNEW your birthday was early in july but i couldn't remember the exact date. shame on me!!!

happy birthday, my dear friend alan. i know all of those things you were talking about are difficult & sometimes you don't know why you're still here but let me tell you something...the game that you, LJ, my dad & i went to was a memory i will never forget. your being there made an extremely emotional night for my dad & i much more bearable & enjoyable. we both knew it was our last trip to lambeau together. i was near tears almost every second we were there...until YOU & LJ showed up. you helped me take a deep breath & actually enjoy that final game together with my dad. THAT my dear friend is ONE MINISCULE reason that you are still here.

Happy Birthday, Cheesey!

Hey, you're one of the few...the proud...the old-timers who got to see the Lombardi era...

Hang in there, buddy. Don't know if it's worth an awful lot, but you'd be missed around here by a bunch of people.

Yeah, Cheesey.

Echo what everyone above said. You're a great guy who made me feel welcome when I first joined this board. I hope you get through what life is giving you. Take care, my friend.

Happy belated Birthday, Cheesey old man! Hang in there 'cause I want you to get to 68 so you can be the same age as me. I'm on a holding pattern now, so until further notice, I'm 68 and gonna stay that.
Best wishes,

Bob

Happy belated birthday Cheesey! Life can be rough sometimes, but you gotta keep fighting. Like some, I was one of the members who felt welcome on this board when I first joined because of you.

I'll say a prayer for you and your wife. Stay strong.

Thank you. ALL of you.
You don't know how much the words of encouragement mean.
I haven't given up yet.
My wife has been out "pounding the pavement" for a job. Had a promising lead today, and it fell through.
I guess sometimes i don't realize that maybe i do matter to some people.
Again, thank you.
I'll keep you posted on how things are from time to time.

Cheesey-

Here is a link to the local paper's classified that run each week on a Tuesday..

http://www.centralwinews.com/starnewsshopper/shopper.html

Not sure what type of job LJ is looking for... but I have some contacts around in the manufacturing realm if that is the area... rent/homes are affordable enough some even out in the country..

If of interest.. PM and we can go from there.. I would be willing to drive down.. pick you up for a couple days visit up here and let you see what the area is all about.. I have little doubt the you would enjoy it.. not sure on your wife and how attached you are to that area, but it is a quieter life up this way.

dfosterf (12-May) : Today would be a good day to discover the Pack signed Taylor Engersma, the Canadian QB

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Collin Whitchurch @cowhitchurch · 1h Chicago got a pope before it got a QB to throw for 4,000 yards in a season.

beast (7-May) : My first name starts with R and my beer belly is quite voluptuous! Thank you for noticing 😏

Zero2Cool (7-May) : beast, you're just one R from being voluptuous.
