Catching Up....Almost There

[El Presidente]

I am pretty sure there has been a fair bit of correspondence I have not caught up with. It is not intentional. I receive personally some 150 e-mails /PM's a day that I respond to (plenty more that I don't !LOL!). Normally I have it under control. Up at 4:30am anc complete e-mails by 8:30.

Unfortunately of late there were some family health issues which have now thankfully abated. On top of it all my long term heart arrhythmia problem started playing up again. I checked myself into hospital a few Fridays ago. I arrived with a 245 heart rate which had the emergency ward staff ...."Jumping" The paddles were ready That was the worst one I have had and after 2 days in hospital and 10 days of cardilology tests (cleanest arteries/pipes they have seen) I go in for a little overnight operation next Thursday. There is a 96% chance they will fix it for good.

Simply a rogue electrical impulse whith a mind of its own. It needs to be terminated.

So ......I have lost too many days and have fallen behind in correspondence or more honestly lost track of some simply by prioritising others. I am swamped but slowly catching up.

This coming week is madness. Rob (freefallguy) arrives tomorrow/Sunday and I am cooking Paella for him and all the czar team

Monday we are off to Kens in the afternoon for vids. Tuesday and Wednesday I am in the warehouse picking FOH stock from this weeks shipment (I have plenty of private requests to choose as well. I have those requests). Thursday I have the operation. I should be released Friday morning and back on the deck in the afternoon. It is a pretty chaotic week.

So....I need a hand

1. Forgive me if I have not replied to your recent correspondence. If it can wait a few days, send it then (trying not get a deluge).. If not, send it now. Send it to my e-mail as opposed to PM.

2. If you are waiting on something from me it may have slipped my mind. Remind me please and I will have it put in train Monday before the rest of the insane week strikes

Cheers fella's I appreciate it. I apologise for needing some slack to be cut but there are times when mates are asked. This will be the toughest week for me time wise but it eases up significantly from next Saturday onwards.

Good luck Rob. My Pops just had the same thing done. Had some tests and they zapped the bad area. Should be good now...

[Strada]

Forget about the PM I sent this morning lol mate. Take care of your health and come back strong!

[Habanakane21]

Take care of yourself first Rob!..All my best

[CaptainQuintero]

Hope everything goes fine for you Rob, I'm sure it will and you'll be able to rely on a bit of bedrest. Maybe the next video review can be from the bedside with special guest Dr Gargatt

These things are normally just a sign from the body telling you to slow down a bit, or speed up a bit, stop doing something, or start doing something. Something like that anyway.

Here's to a sucessfull visit next Thurs

[DougB]

Glad to hear you are well Rob. Here's to being well and happy We appreciate all that you do.

[Drguano]

I have had an irregular heartbeat on and off for years. I figured out it was stress caused by noticing an irregular heartbeat. Here's to your recovery!

[nikosdoc]

Take care of your self Rob,we can all wait!!

Be well soon!

[hdryder]

My ex wife had the same problem, went for the surgery and hasnt had any trouble since. Good luck to you Rob

[CanuckSARTech]

Cheers Rob. Best wishes for everything. My wife's a Registered Nurse, and she says that if it's the proceedure she's thinking of, and understanding how your health care system works (in that it's very similar to ours, a lot of cross training there), that you have no worries at all. Definitely a "day proceedure", and very commonplace and regular.

Now, when you get back, I'll look forward to you shipping out that cherry red Dodge Viper SRT-10 that you promised me in a past conversation......

[Puros Y Vino]

Rob take care your health. I'm sure all other requests can wait. Take care mate.

[riazp]

Take care of yourself first and foremost mate!

[Orion21]

150 per day???? "Heavy is the burden" indeed....

[CanuckSARTech]

150 per day???? "Heavy is the burden" indeed....

50 of which are from Riaz, and another 50 from KBG.....

[Colt45]

Best wishes, RA.

I know you're a real do-it-yourselfer - sometimes you can counteract the bad elctrical impulse with some kind of shock -

finger in an electrical outlet, bath with a toaster, etc.

[BradNC]

Wishing you a speedy recovery, Rob. Hell, if I was local I'd sneak in a bottle or two of wine up to your hospital room. I was also looking for a reason to light up a cigar. Smoking to your health (that seems like an odd statement) on this occasion seems appropriate.

[lemmycaution]

Take care, Rob.

[sighuber]

Best of luck Rob.

[Pilgrims]

Take it easy pres, anything and everything can always wait. Get better we need you at the helm!!

I am sure reviews with Gargett must be the cause!

[JSPEC]

No problamo presidente! Hope all is well and wish you and yours all the best!

[greenpimp]

I remember you having issues with this a couple years ago Rob; hope the procedure goes well and this gives you peace of mind (finally)

[Trevor2118]

All the best Rob

..........you will be back on deck punishing your body in no time.......

[Guest rob]

Im no churchy, mate... but I'm saying a quick prayer for you and your family. All the best my friend.

[JohnnyC]

Don't worry Rob all your friends at the Czar want you to get better and not worry about your response to an e-mail. All the best Rob ...here is wishing you a speedy recovery.

[IcedCanuck]

Best wishes my friend, I'm sure everything will go smoothly. Health should always be priority #1.
