By that I mean if you are good friends with a brother or sister here, make sure you get there email address, phone numbers, and an emergency number as well. I bring this up because we have lost contact with a great Brother Marty aka cnc66 with no luck to reach him. No matter what happens in your posts, please learn to agree and disagree, and please don't ever make things personal. The reason I say that is life is very short, and you never want to lose a family member and have to live with the thought of your last conversation ending in a pissing contest. Please keep Marty in your thoughts and prayers. Always treat others like you would want to be treated no matter what. Take Care, John
His health wasn't the best as he was battling some things. I know some of you may have seen or felt his bark, but let me tell you once you got behind that, you had the best friend in your life that would be there for you no matter what.
Marty and I didnt always see eye to eye, but after exchanging multiple PMs with him, even after he had to get on me for some things.....i found out he was one of the better humans I have ever came across in my life. I know he has been through hell in his life experiences, I know if he can get through that and be the man he became, he can get through anything else. Heres to him coming here, and "thanking" this post, so We know hes ok! Marty
Some news on Marty.Brother Jerry the owner at Phinzmania got in touch with him today. He has been ill, and doesn't have a personal phone as times have been tough for him.
Thanks for the update. Another poster who hasn't been/posted here lately is DonShula84. Miss him even tho he's a dirty angels fan
There is a thread set up here http://www.phinzmania.com/forums/showthread.php?t=78334 to read up on Marty if you would like. You can donate through the site and Brother Jerry will ensure it gets to Marty. Right now we are hoping to at least get him a phone, and if we can collect enough donations hope to be able to get his Internet going once again so everyone maybe able to hear from him. After that it would be the other essentials in life. We are just trying to extend a helping hand to him, and give him some sanity and hope in life.
Damn man. I was wondering where he was. I was gone for a little while myself, and noticed some missing members when I got back. Marty has always been great. He's been through a lot, and I hope to see him here again. Great guy.

John, thanks for the info/update re; Marty. I don't know Marty as well as you, or some others here, but he was always cool to me. Hope things turn around for him. Been a tough year or so for me, so I can definitely sympathize with anyone down on their luck. G
Marty is honest to god one of the best guys I've met around here. Stern yet with an awesome sense of humor .. for a curmudgeon! Was never afraid to have a good laugh,and always had a sensible way about him. His presence surely was missed. EDIT: The paypal link isn't working for me
Def miss the big lug. FWIW, I am in the process of taking taking care of the phone part for him. Hopefully we can have him back posting within a month or so.
That is the goal brother to get him up and running again so he may say hello and check in with everyone. Thanks again Matt for all your help brother. We really appreciate it.
I sent Jerry a pm and I will let you know when he gets it back up. Sorry for the inconvenience this may have caused. We appreciate your interest and support.
Never a problem for Marty. I hope you took care of what you said you would take care of yesterday or there will be repercussions! lol
