Michi's Farwell

Post by MICHIPHIN »

Due to the ongoing circumstance of “Unfavorable PM’s and Email’s which I have been receiving, I am leaving Buffett News permanently. Even with a leave of absence, It is easier for me to make an exit than attempt to solve the issue with other individuals. So much I could add but will leave it at that. Not seeking to cause any controversy.

I have requested to PHJIM that my log-in be disabled permanently.

After 21 years, 5 months and 25 days along this journey, I have met many amazing people. Most recently, Bill (Body Painter) and his wife Anne. If the “Jimmy” adventure continues, I will seek out those at tailgates which I can.

I have been thinking of all the adventures (That Indy show with all which happened, Meetings with Dave in Chicago, Jeep & Red Wines party in Las Vegas, Etc..) but will leave you with the best moment which was meeting Moog and the birth of the beach ball.

Unfortunately, there are members here which don’t see the humor in the past, or at all. Which is sad and hopefully doesn’t ruin this adventure as they have for me. More importantly, subject others such as myself, for enjoying and creating what we once shared. Very sad. :cry: :cry:

After 21 years, 5 months & 5 days…..As Jimmy would say, "Thank You, Good Night & God Bless".

Thank you for those, who were friends. Never forget you all.

I've been lurker the majority of my time on here but I can legitimately say that I have enjoyed the great banter between you and the regulars on here. Sad that people can't be nice. Good luck and FINS UP !! 🍻🇨🇦

It was a pleasure, Michi. I remember when we met in Orlando. I'm not on that much anymore. I lurk. But, sadly a lot of the people I 1st met on BN, have disappeared, have sadly passed or on FB only. Before FB and other social media apps. This was the place. Wherever you are Michi, Be well!!

Well, Michi - not sure who the "Other Individuals" are, but I personally don't think you should have let them get to you.

But you do you.. you do what you think is best for YOU.

You know how to find me and E.

Cheers to ya Michi….will keep in mind Salt Lake City as a destination someday. Keep me in the loop upon any trips back to the Mitten. Hopefully the worm will turn for me & I’ll be able to “loosen up” a bit once again.
Happy sailing !

I am so lost. I do not know how I got involved/blamed/whatever in this. Michi knows I am not involved. Maybe someone will let us all know which the higher up is that has the ability to tell people to go away. I thought we were all family.....

I will never forget walking through Margaritaville gift shop in Las Vegas and having you telling me Hello. I was so surprised!!

I will miss you....you know my email address....use it.

I was hoping this was some kind of cruel hoax, but I tried sending Michi a PM and he is indeed gone (and will sorely be missed!)
I don't know who is responsible for the "unfavorable PM’s and Email’s", but shame on you. :evil:

I should probably get one of those....
