Its gotta be getting better soon. This has been the worst month ever for me since I can remember. Last night I found out a really good friend of mine had a massive heart attack and died, my mom needs an operation on her legs for a vascular disease which causes blood clots and the Dr tells her shes a walking time bomb..which means the clots will eventually work their way to her heart or break off and move there on their own, either way they will eventually make it to her heart. Weve had voluntary layoffs at work which put a serious dent in the wallet right before xmas. Just had the stomach flu for 3 weeks etc. etc. etc. Even thought about selling the AAR Registry and the .com rights to my site and everything that goes along with it cause im just mentally spent. Im also mentally drained from dealing with people on other web boards and all the mis-information and hate and discontent they cause. The last year ive dealt with people who post information as being correct and or gospel and they show proof in the form of pictures, but not pictures they themselves have took but pictures from E-Bay auctions that someone else has taken and they know nothing about the history of the item or car they have now copied paisted. This is a GROSS example of mis-information and misleads people on every level. I've had to deal with parts vendors who make 2nd rate parts argue their point till its nothing more than a broken record of again misinformation to only make themselves look good or as all knowing which they clearly are not. While I started my site and web board to help people find answers its hard to participate on other boards when everyone is a text book know it all and is willing to argue with you at the drop of a hat because they have organized 30 car shows and have half assed restored a car they know half the history on but sit and say absolutely they know the complete history of that car. IT GETS OLD!!! And im tired of fighting the good fight. I put this board up for people to use to get the correct answers they are looking for. People on other boards ask for an AAR and T/A forum when there is one right here, but its not good enough to come here and use it they have to have one somewhere else. Put all the things ive had to deal with this month along with the last 2 years and I hope you can understand where im coming from.   I hope this is it and things get better cause ive had enough.

Think of it this way--it's either the Creator issuing you challenges to see how well you will cope or it's the devil hoping to make you appreciate the conditions in hell, if that gets to be the final destination.
 
Seriously, all the issues with "the know-it-alls" should be minor irritations. Eventually, with a little education and time, even the MoRons will probably come around. The other board(s) seem(s) to have a small number of "pot-stirrers" or idiots that make participating in their "discussions" very frustrating at times. It's a relatively small number, but they always seem to have an opinion on everything and chime in whether it contributes to the topic or not. (Recently, on one of those other boards, Ken Bowser asked for some information on a particular Challenger showcar and got no info, only a bunch of unneccessary opinions about photos he posted in regard to his inquiry. Did it help his search or aid anyone's education of that particular car? No, I'm afraid not, but that tends to be what happens on THAT forum.)  
 
You don't have that behavior on this board; this is a site that presents good info and discussion for people seeking specific knowledge for their area of interest. In my opinion, it would be a very bad thing to lose this forum, all this information, and the website DEDICATED to the preservation, restoration, history and enjoyment of the AAR Cudas, T/A Challengers, and all E-Bodies. No one will be able to present this information as you have. The site is a reflection of your dedication, committment and efforts in this hobby--it's as simple as that.
 
Take a step back, take a deep breath, and count your blessings. Things get tough at times, BUT they can always be much worse. No matter what seems deeply troubling--somewhere--someone has it MUCH worse than any of us do. If we can examine their situation, we'll find that what we have is nothing by comparison. Rejoice in the fact that your mom's condition was diagnosed and treatment can perhaps alleviate that condition. Take good care of your mom--she's a nice lady.
 
 Jeff, hang in there--things WILL get better. Try to enjoy the holidays and stay in touch.

Jeff,  
 
  Many of us here are concerned about your welfare.   We look here hoping to see another post where you say you are doing better.  Thanks for everything.
