    You're absolutely right...don't forget, someone "stole" his XM tuner....now get back to work! :D
    CTC BBQ Amplifier, Sonic Frontiers Line3 Pre-Amplifier and Wadia 581 SACD player. Speakers? Always changing but for now, Mission Argonauts I picked up for $50 bucks, mint.

    it seems like he slowed his posting down a lot after this thread:http://www.polkaudio.com/forums/showthread.php?t=34836

    And let us not forget this thread, or this one or this one and then the one where he even started getting on us CA guy's nerves, the Polkfest thread. And these are just from recent memory.

    I enjoyed hanging with him at Polkfest and never had a problem with him and really dont to this day, but I did get tired of him turning every thread or discussion into a battle. Ya know, I dont think we've had a single closed thread on the CA side since he left.

    Hey, you have to take it with a grain of salt. (Jstas' cocky attitude) The guy came over to my place to help me with my truck for over twelve hours. I got no problems... Hope everything is OK.

    I think I still have his phone number, I'll give him a call to check up on him.

    You CA guys know you miss the little ****...

    well after about 30minutes of reading- all I can say is: Damn.
    Mac if you ever bring up my earlier threads, shoot me a warning via email first. :D

    Anthony - Yeah, I kinda do. I think it was just a phase. He seemed to go a little more psycho than usual after Polkfest. Maybe he's mellowed out more lately.

    AA - LOL! You got it bro!

    Well, this is something I never thought Id see. Not only is there a thread on the whereabouts of John, but it went at least 2 pages long! :D

    I got curious. Hang me.

    John's got his share of probs, just like everybody else, maybe even slightly more. Like I said, he put aside his anger for me in order to attend my daughters viewing. He didn't have to do that, and I am indebted to him for it.

    of course hes nice in person, the dude was 5'6" a buck fifty.

    The guy had some serious internet tough guy problems. I personally think he was picked on as a kid and uses forums to act mean because no one is physically there to "set him straight." I wish nothing bad on him, hope hes doing great, but i have no regrets that i havent seen him posting in a while

    That's not a qualifier. I'm 67" short and John had an inch or two on me. I've also been around plenty long enough to see the little guys be the first ones to start throwing hands, and the big guys be the first ones under the table or over with the ladies.

    John was probably on his best behavior at Polk HQ's because it was Polk HQ's.

    No need to turn this into a bashing thread.....I'm sure he's smart enough to know that if he can treat people with respect he will in turn receive it.

    Many don't care if he posts again, and some do. Everyone just leave it alone and if you want to talk him up, PM him......

    Tried that a couple months or so ago and got no response. So I figured he's done with us at least for now so Ill leave it at that. As far as Im concerned, and Im sure he couldnt care less what I think, but he's welcome back anytime. No hard feelings here. :)
