Don't know if anyone goes through their old messages to see those last conversations.
Geoff wrote to me when he found out that my son had died from Leukemia at the age of 7 and it was heartfelt and kind. We chatted about things and then music and he said to me
"
All that I know, is that you're a great talent that needs a sounding board. Wherever that is, I don't know, but would be happy to work with you should the opportunity arise.
Stay safe bud, cos the world needs your soul."
What a nice gift to give me once upon a time........
Thank you Brian for restoring the site so that I can look at messages from my past here, many good times and people.
Tammy His very last note to me was "I miss my JPF friends" via Facebook. I never got another reply. He was 2 months younger than me and I never thought he would be gone, certainly not before me with all my health issues. My intent was to leave, in my will, the money to keep this site up at least 10 years after I am gone. Sadly with the technical problems and with donations dwindling to very little, if another serious problem arises there would be no way to cover for the problem. I also would leave this to someone if we had someone young who would take the responsibility on. As for you and all the others, rather than just lament the past here, I wish folks, a great number of which are still alive and well, would take a bit of their facebook and instagram time to be here more often. We could still make new memories. And we need to recruit young people to replace the older folks who have passed. This board turns 25 years old in a few weeks. There aren't many creative community repositories such as this still up and running from the dawn of the internet. While countless Titans of tech have come and gone, we still chug along because those of you who still visit. Please continue to do so and interact here as well. There are always songs to be written and topics to banter.

"Defeatist Pessimists and Rose Colored Glasses Optimists are lonely companions, victims even. Both ideologies imply predestined outcomes, and therefore breed inactivity in its victims. Inaction is the only sure way to lose at anything in life. All positive action guarantees at least a fighting chance." -Brian Austin Whitney
