 Well phooey, could not make up my mind to which challenge to enter; so went with all of them.  It will be interesting to see how we are doing compared to other teams.     |

Oh, that's what I feared.
I had hoped that Base Camp could have leased mike047 if he had agreed, but I see his fate will be sealed year round with your appetite for challenges  - which by the way is not much different from the one I have aquired ....   |

As I have absolutely no control of anybody on the team, I can only hope everybody stays for the duration.  If anyone leaves I can always pull out of the challenges ( I probably won't, but Hey It's a choice.)  Susie and I are talking about a big upgrade to the fleet early next year. Her brother has stage 4 pancreatic cancer. That makes 2 brothers, 2 fathers ,4 uncles and 4 aunts all gone now except 1. We are in it for the long haul. You can take that to the bank. PS: If anybody wants to ride along with us, we would be proud to have you.   |

t would only had been a lease, if at all, sujo1. You would have had him back again, and me too for a bit as a sort of interest ....
no, no, I wouldn't steal for good. I'm just happy for you to have so good company. I'm so sorry to hear of the many cancer deaths in your and Sue's family - certainly a motivation for carrying on. |

I think that Susie and Myself are blessed with many good people having our back. She also said that cancer runs in her family like some have red hair in their families.  My direct family only had 1 (my Dad) but, he did smoke for some 50 years.( Died of lung cancer) Unfortunately there are many people here that have had just as bad luck with this insidious indiscriminate killer.  I look forward to kicking it to the curb. |

I have had two recent surgeries for a basal cell carcinoma behind my ear. They managed, the second time, to cut it all out. No cemo or radiation
---------------------------------------- I plan on staying but won't be able to run full power all month. Fixed SS income so the electric bill has to be watched. Still be able to provide 20K+ a day

Glad they made a clean cut, mike047, and I'm glad you stay with SeriousCrunchers
- only I would have liked to lease you for a bit - I'm a lucky 15 year breast cancer survivor myself. Yes, sujo1, let's kick it to the curb |

Glad to hear that they got it all.
---------------------------------------- I am so glad you are staying. Only 20,000 ? I get 6 on a good day. I understand the fixed income, lucky for me there are four (small) incomes. I retired early. My ss kicks in in feb. I will be a whooping 62 in December. Since no males in my family live past 70 decided to play the odds. If I make it to 65 I get another small pension. yeah me. Thus the upgrade in equipment in around march. |
