That is what really sucks. So if we schedule a cookout, I could miss it any time. Doctors say it should happen before the end of the year. Thanks Doc. Merry Christmas & Happy New Year to you too. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Tom Hargrave Sent: Thursday, September 08, 2005 12:23 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; 'Mercedes mailing list' Subject: Re: [MBZ] RustyQ 2005 I'd vote for a gathering in lieu of the RustyQ, providing it's at BuyMBparts and Rusty, Crusty and the gang are the "guests of honor". I can help with beer taps & such if someone can find a keg or two. Thanks, Tom Hargrave 256-656-1924 www.kegkits.com _____ From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Gerald R.

First my father-in-law committed suicide the week of Christmas 2004. My wife was named Executrix of the estate and it has been pure hell dealing with groveling siblings the last 8 months. Then our son got married in July and once again Mama was stressed to the max. And finally, we were told last month that my wifes 48 year old brother has 3 to 4 months to live. So Needless to say she and I are kinda worn out. We have decided to skip one year for the RustyQ, so we can settle down and gain some control in our lives. I am very sorry since this would have been our 8th cookout. I can promise that next year will be a GREAT one. If anyone wants to step up and have a gathering in lieu of this one please come forward. Again, it has really been fun and we have such a neat collection of people, but I really dont think my heart is in it for this year. I look forward to having a nice blast next year around the middle of October. Thanks for your understanding in this matter. Rusty Cullens BuyMBparts, Inc. 1-800-741-5252
