ddewees Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 Anyone know? He doesn't seem as active as he was, and I know he still has a tough road ahead of him. It was quite amazing to see his enthusiasm after going through what he went through, but I'm sure "normal life" can start to wear on that... Just checking in to make sure he's doing fine, and still the same annoying high spirited guy we all know and love. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marks265 Posted June 19, 2015 Share Posted June 19, 2015 Maybe he is in jail or participating in the new secret forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah, took me a bit to get the "vine charcoal" reference - perhaps that's his ulterior motive Hope it all pans out well for you Dags, and that you keep contributing to this forum - especially the Rocketry section. Otherwise, who else am I going to argue with? Cheers. Edited June 30, 2015 by stix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrB Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 Ah, took me a bit to get the "vine charcoal" reference - perhaps that's his ulterior motive.Of course it is. No responsible pyro intoxicates him self with alcohol, and then does pyro things. Since pyro is a lifestyle, there is no alternative, he's going to do pyro. And he IS a responsible pyro.B! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taiwanluthiers Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 Could you get drunk from the alcohol fumes while binding red gum based compositions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maserface Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 You'd probably die from the methanol in denatured alcohol before you got drunk from the ethanol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dagabu Posted September 2, 2016 Share Posted September 2, 2016 (edited) Sammy and I put down cheap vinyl planks to cover the plywood floor in the downstairs 3 season porch. Jarrod and I put down 5mm vinyl plank and laid in 3 LVL Lams to open the upstairs porch (4 season) for Patts plant. More time with Hazel grace!

Boophoenix Posted September 2, 2016 Share Posted September 2, 2016 Nice looking work Dave. Sure wish I had part of Sam's energy. She made some us fellas look bad during some of the cleanup at PGI on Friday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dagabu Posted September 2, 2016 Share Posted September 2, 2016 She is a determined young lady for sure! She is a great daughter and is able to deal well with grumpy old me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boophoenix Posted September 3, 2016 Share Posted September 3, 2016 (edited) Lol Dave, maybe that's where she got the skills to handle the ruffians her age at the event. Jake almost trapped me under the bus and got me into trouble, but I was saved by blaming the events of a couple of years ago on you. Somehow the formal dress event came up and figures started pointing, lol. Edited September 3, 2016 by Boophoenix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dagabu Posted September 3, 2016 Share Posted September 3, 2016 Hmmmmm. Funny, I thought that started with somebody else. I just ran with it since Sammy got really embarrassed by the whole thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boophoenix Posted September 4, 2016 Share Posted September 4, 2016 I started it with Jake as a dare kind of. Somehow you or someone nominated Sammy into the the mix. I wasn't able to attend that event, but all indication were it was fun. Even if there were some embarrassing moments they still recall it pretty well so it formed a lasting memory. That made it a priceless moment since it's been what three years now and it came up in the first few minutes of meeting Sammy in LaPorte ( thanks Jake ).

dagabu Posted September 4, 2016 Share Posted September 4, 2016 The four kids, Elizabeth, Forest, Jake and Samantha were thick as thieves that year and have continued to be part of the growing leadership at PGI. I just hope those in key leadership positions don't lose their chance to mentor these young people and lose them from pyro. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dagabu Posted September 4, 2016 Share Posted September 4, 2016 Speaking about how I'm doing... I took SWMBO to the North Shore yesterday for a micro vacation. We took the train up to Two Harbors and back. Very fun, perfect weather. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boophoenix Posted September 5, 2016 Share Posted September 5, 2016 I was impressed by the efforts and involvement that I saw. Not your run of the mill young people it didn't seem. Also boy they are funny to be around if they stay that way PGI will be a hoot when they are well known names people look to for information. I had alway thought Jake to be a little of an anomaly with his maturity level and respect. You've done quite well with Sammy it seemed we talked for a brief period during loading up of the manufacturing container. I don't recall the other yound fellas name though.
