It's been a while since I've posted here but I still remember a lot of conversations with all of you. If anyone is going to the game Sunday I would gladly try to look you up. I will be there early, going to visit my son at Duquesne and take him to the game. OPP if you are going to be in the "Burgh" let me know, I'll buy you a cold one! email me at jsamanka@yahoo.com

Thanks for the welcome back. I have missed everyone here! Hopefully some day I will acheive "old timer" status here on the HSBBweb. I have been around these boards since before the big changes. You guys and gals helped me through some rough times a couple years back. I will share my story some day. But for now it's still a work in progress!
Yep, I'm in DuBois! You ever been here?
I sent you an email yesterday Glove Man. Did you get it?
I wish I knew if OPP was going to be in Pittsburgh tomorrow, that would be great.

I have wondered for a VERY long time whatever happened to you...you just disappeared! So glad you sound well, and WELCOME BACK! I drove right through DuBois last Thursday evening on the way to I-80---here's a belated wave to you.
Do keep in touch...some of us old-timers missed you!

Is this heaven?...

Pirate game went well. Zach is just AWSOME! We sat in the left field bleachers right at the foul line. Anyone that has a chance to get to PNC park to catch a game, it is highly recommended! There isn't a bad seat in the house.
Zach Duke-- you revived my interest in the Pirates! You have been an inspiration to my 20 year old son, who is an Oriole fan, he was in awe watching you warm up in the outfield. He returned to baseball this summer after taking some time off after some very emotional strains the last couple years. I thank you for your hard work and inspiration. Stay strong!
OPP-- thanks for the email. I hope to meet you next season if you come to Pittsburgh. Please don't forget to contact me. I will try to keep in touch more often.
PAmom-- I have missed everyone here I will start another thread in another forum as this one should be left to the Pro's among us. ________________________________________________
