Hey guys, posted in the Porch yesterday. I am flying out of Afghanistan today. But just wanted to say and even bigger thank you to a certain few of you. I was told from back home that I had a package from Paul (pdalowsky) and had no idea what it could have been. I PM'd Paul asking if it was a mistake and that it was intended for me. He said no mistake, let me know what you think. I was not expecting anything from him, so it caught me completely off guard. My girlfriend sent me pictures of what it was and to my disbelief and utter shock, it was the Emek Santa Barbara print SIGNED by Eddie :D . Now I had tried to purchase this a few weeks earlier but some last minute stuff prevented it. I told Paul it must have been a mistake and that I would return it to him as soon as I returned home to Virginia. He said that the poster was mine. t was paid for by members on the forum. I am completely blown away. Thank you to whoever did this for me. I am truly touched and cannot tell you how much this means. Truly amazing people here. I will be looking forward to seeing the final list so I can thank each and everyone of you. I may be unavailable for the next week as I will be starting my long journey home today. I am not sure how the internet situation will be so hopefully I can pop on even for a minute to update you guys. Again, thank you so much for this. I truly means a lot to me. You all are amazing people and I am honored to have spoken to most of you so far. Take care everyone, and I will check in as often as possible.

UPDATE:
Hey everyone, finally flew out last night after waiting for 12 hours at the termninal. All worth it once we took off though. Landed in Kuwait a few hours later and after loading, then unloading all the baggage for 75 people we made the 3 hour bus trip to the camp we will be staying at for 6 or so days before we take the flight home. Been a long and tiring journey so far and I am looking forward to some down time to relax and gather my thoughts, but at the same time the waiting around to finally go home is driving us all a little crazy. Thank you to eveyrone for all the well wishes they have really made this whole thing worthwhile just knowing I have the support of so many. Got lucky with the internet so hopefully I will be bale to be on more often since we are now at our Camp. Talk soon and thanks again. All the best.

IM BACK!!
After a long journey I am finally back. Just landed in Baltimore and enjoying a beer waiting to board my flight to Virginia. Hope everyone is doing well and I'll be back on tomorrow for tonight is a celebration lol. Talk to everyone later and again thank you guys for everything

    The thing I like most about time is that it's not real. It's all in the head. Sure, it's a useful trick to use if you want to meet someone at a specific place in the universe and have tea or coffee- but that's all it is- a trick. There is no such thing as the past. It exists only in the memory. There is no such thing as the future. It exists only in our imagination. If our watches were truly accurate, the only thing they would ever say is "Now". That's what time it is. It's "Now". - Damien Echols

    I don't mean to offend anyone, a lot of what I say should be taken with a grain of salt... that said for most of you I'm a stranger on a computer on the other side of the world, don't give me that sort of power!
