Jobo is alive and well!!

> Jobo is one guy that I just have to meet. What a rock. I sure do miss him.

We live about 3 hours from him. :good:

I sent him a link to this thread and told him he should come read it. Here's hoping he does! 🙂

I missed meeting Jobo when I was in Seattle.

I did get to feature on a MLB DVD with Jobo.

Jobo would easily rate as the "most want" to meet.

Then TED,....

Not forgetting that I have already met so many .....

Does anyone know how John Burr is doing? He had an amazing lightning strike story and was practicing his guitar by playing public gigs last I heard.

last i heard, surveying wasn't paying off, she was pursuing other ventures.
if i recall correctly, there were two or three posters that dropped some heavy racial epithets against her on the old board.

i miss her posts, as well

Don't smoke, but I do drink Gin on occasion.

I had my Martini last night because I have found that it is best to allow a few days metabolism before a strenuous field day (e.g. no Martini on Sunday before field week).

> Joe (Jobo) Glidden passed away a couple of years ago.

The Jobo Glidden, that posted to the old POB board is alive and well. I hope to see him at the conference in Spokane, in March, if he can find a cat sitter.

I'll tell him you said hi;-)

> Who is on your list?

Reaching into the wayback machine - Ian Wilson. Ian hasn't posted in maybe 5 years. I was reminded of him at the Oregon conference- he is an associate of one of the speakers.
