Cool to see someone on the Box forum with good taste in moto-bikes as well -- here's my current Ducati that's in the pipe:

AMEN TO THAT!

My Uncle just passed away 6 months ago from Colon and Liver Cancer. It was one of the hardest things in the world to watch. Some days he was fine and other he could not move. Towards the end of his days knowing there was no hope he was not able to put aside his pride. He could not admit to himself that his time had come. He refused to sign over papers giving his children and his Wife the rights to all their financial assets. The day before his passing he had one last talk with my father (his youngest brother) and finally gave up. The following morning he was gone.

I don't think there is anything harder on a man than to know he has become helpless.

Nice to have you on the board, you have a way of putting things into perspective and bring a little humanity to this board.

Thanks!

Travis, thanks for the sentiment... however, just to balance it all out and insure no one thinks I'm an angel in this situation, it should be said that I was fuming mad just like UroTrash when I was going through what he went through with Lux.

Then I was praying one morning (which I try to do daily) and really felt that God clearly told me to be compassionate and to get it into perspective. I asked for forgiveness for being so friggin' selfish (I hate it when I act like a two year old) and asked God what I should do about it. Later that day, I got the brilliant idea (ok, God put the thought in my head) to buy another cap from Sunset, write the $30 loss off to experience, and send Lux a note telling him not to worry about my cap and that I would be praying for a speedy recovery. There but for the grace of God go I ...
