I have to come clean for Snipe, He's a buddy.

[Avalon]

Dear Board,

I have to come clean and admit that I'm not what I seem to be.

I've been banned as Tim Murphy, Vocelli, and in the very near future, perhaps immediate future, I'll be banned as Avalon.

Back when I could be me I used to occasionally chat with "Snipe" about the things around and about Elmira. I liked to do it and I'm sure he liked it as well. We talked about favorite "watering holes," fishing holes, and stuff like that.

He had me by a couple of years but in our hearts we were kindred spirits.

Honestly, I've never met the man personally. We have chatted and e-mailed each other and that means something to me.

I really hope that things work out for old "Snipe" the man I never met. I promised him a plate of Hot Wings from Bernie Murray's a couple of years ago.

I owe the man at least that much.

Regards,

Tim Murphy,
Vocelli,
and Avalon.

Maybe if you try to behave yourself this time, they will let you stay.

Hey Mantis,

Yes, Snipe has been hospitalized with a
stroke. More details here: [url=http://www.flyanglersonline.com/bb/Forum1/HTML/017823.html:c00a6]http://www.flyanglersonline.com/bb/Forum1/HTML/017823.html[/url:c00a6]
Warm regards, Jim

Dear JC,

To be totally honest I really don't know what I need to do?

I'm just hoping that someone who knows "Snipe" will see this message and let him know that Tim Murphy was asking about him.

I lived for 11 years up Snipe's way and I meet a lot of really great people. I regret having never met Snipe.

Honestly, that's all I meant by this post.

Regards,
Tim Murphy
