FIRST_ If anyone did not notice OT means OFF TOPIC. So if OT sets you off into a tantrum or rage,PLEEZEE do not bother with this thread. I do not want to upset your "normal" sweet demeanor.
It really is not far off topic. Tom and Ralphie are eBayers and need to reconnect with their peers. They have well over 100 items on, so they have been busy with their eBaying.
I have not seen Tom post is a while. Hope he is all right. Ralphie could not have ate the mouse or keyboard .... they have too many auctions on.
I just hope Tom is doing well.
Ralphie is Tom in pain,or just tooo busy to deal with us?

I just emailed him a few minutes ago,
I hope his pain has not got the best of him.
People should not stroll off and not wave good bye.( guess he being a bachelor he is not use to answering to anyone)
Anyway a BIG CALL for Tom/Ralphie "please check in!"

He emailed me a couple of weeks ago in his usual helpful way, but he didn't say how he and Ralphie were doing.

I heard from him over week ago, sent him an email to check up on him. He's kind of down, health, lots of pain & financial problems, sales are slow.
I noticed he replied to a post a few days ago, but can't remember which one.
It's not like Tom & Ralphie to stay away from VD. Come back you too.
I wonder where sanmar is.

The WhooHoo topic made me think of them too. It just doesn't seem right to have a WhooHoo topic and not see Ralphie post the dancing banana

McJane,
I think we last heard that sanmar (Alan) had died. I could be wrong, but I seem to remember that very clearly, because several years ago he had sent us a photocopy compilation of Noritake marks we still use today.
Anyone else remember what happened to sanmar?

may be it is Spartz,not Sanmar who past away,someone emailed or called him and his family responded.
Come to think of it,where is Sanmar?
Is he the guy who sometimes will post here to arrange lunch with another seller??

family biz, I didn't know that & am so sorry to hear it.
hwahwa, I read here that sparkz died of kidney cancer. A member had his address & wrote then received a reply from his daughter.
What I know about sanmar was that he lived in a trailer & sold china. He was in his eighties & when he stopped posting I wondered if he was still alive.
It hurts to lose members & I know we all miss them.
I have a little notebook by my computer & have a notice in it that says if anything ever happens to me post on vendio.com EO that I'm gone & tell everyone good-by & how much I enjoyed my years on VD.
Hey Tom & Ralphie will you two please check in.

mcjane, I like your idea about having a note beside the computer. I'm not sure my husband would remember to let you all know so I will do the same thing.
