Letter From T3ase

[t3ase]

Mazda Forum Members,
As many of you know, a few months ago I was involved in a rather serious car accident where I was in a temporary coma for four days after. The extent of my injuries were, at the time, just a few broken bones & scarred up legs/arms/etc. I thought I was fine. A few weeks after I get home and start telling everyone I'm okay, I started to develop constant headaches. Anyway, long story short and without diving too much in to what's happened since, I've been through medical hell for the past few months. On top of that, Rachael, the girl that was driving and the one that came on here to tell what was going on had cheated on me while I was in the hospital and used my MSP to drive to the guy's house. Needless to say, it has not been a fun time, at all.

But, I didn't post this to throw a pity party. I want to take this time to thank each and every one of you for your thoughts, wishes, bitching that I'm not here, and just thinking about me. I want to especially thank everyone who threw in some money, despite my hardheaded disagreeing, and helped purchase a electronic boost controller for me. I've *never* been one to feel as part of a group and after the somewhat unsuccessful Texas Mazda meet, I thought I'd give up on being part of the Mazda community other than on this forum. How I was wrong.

If you've been on this forum long enough, you see the lies, the bitching, the hate, the love.. You see it all. This forum basically becomes a second life, like a real time soap opera. The old vets like it there way, the new guys come on and stir up trouble, Matthew bitches about vendors but still gets sponsorships from them (lol2) and so forth. Granted, some of you may not ever get so caught up in this forum as some have and some of you think it's entirely stupid to do so. I did. This forum has been my life. I've been giving it all and I thought it went mostly unnoticed except for by a few select people. I thought it was me vs everyone on here. I thought that everyone on this forum was out for their own. Granted, there's a lot of team work going on here, which is what a forum's about. However, every time shit goes down, everyone's out for themselves and that's what it seemed like was all they cared about. Again, I was wrong.

I have *never* been part of such a caring community. Ever. Think about this. There were hundreds of people that donated money to help me out. I'd say 99% of you have never met me and most never will. All you've seen is the messages I've posted, the flashing wig-wag headlight avatar and my occasional camgirls. Yet each of you showed support and care by sending me either a simple message saying "get well" or you donated for the EBC. There were a few people who weren't even members here that helped out. Where else would you find hundreds of people willing to do that? I know I couldn't even begin to think of where to start.

This community is just that, a community. I didn't get that. I guess being a bitchy, hardheaded moderator kinda took that feeling away from me. I started viewing the forum as less of a team thing and more of a singular "what's wrong" thing. It's extremely easy to do that, especially with the new Mazdaspeed kids. Yet when disaster striked for me, instead of just having my Mom & a girl I thought was a caring friend, I had this whole community on my side. I cannot even begin to express how much that matters to me and what I feel about it.

With the frequent shit talking, arguing, bitching that goes on here, it's easy to forget that we're all here for a purpose. We're all Mada enthusiasts. Whether you want to add neons to your Protege DX or setup a custom supercharge for your Miata or P5, we're all here for one thing... The love of Mazdas. We're all here for that. Despite our differences, we have that ONE thing in common and that ONE thing is why you all helped me out. That's just a priceless feeling that you probably don't understand until you're in my position.

You guys (and the few girls) are amazing. No matter if you donated for the EBC, sent me a message or saw it and just thought about me for a split second, I'm lucky to have you all in my life. Your show of support has helped me make it through this *VERY* frustrating, depressing, never-ending, hellish time. The random messages on AIM, the letters I've received from a few of you, the flowers I had delievered (who did that, by the way?) and just all of the small things that normally go unnoticed have just blown me away. You are the reason I'm determined to not let this shit win and the reason I want to get back out there and drive. It's not that I want it, it's that each of you want it for me. That is amazing.

I thank you all for your dedication, support, and time for this community. No matter if you post once or you're a postwhore like 1sty, you help mold this community and make it a better place for us all. Thank you all.

Anyway, enough about that. I just wanted to thank each and every one of you for your support. It means more than you will probably *ever* know. Be safe out there, guys. You may be a decent driver but in a split second, your driving days could be over; for good. I was lucky to make it out alive after seeing the car. We weren't even racing, we were just driving and we were hit on my side during a turn by a car going around 60 with very little braking beforehand. As much as I didn't believe the doctors and despite the bullshit stories I told people that I was fine.. After seeing that car.. I'm VERY lucky to be here right now typing this. Regardless of what you're doing, racing or driving.. Be careful.

Thanks to everyone,
Clay Higgins (evil)

[Black Majik MSP]

WTF kind of person would do that, even after she came on here? (pissed)

Glad to have you back Clay!

[Moeed]

Clay,

its good to have you back. Don't worry, the TX meet was a success because, after all people did come out to it and we all met each other and it was a damn good time.

[t3ase]

Apparently she posted one message at his house. Or at least he said that..

That's drama all of it's own, though. I've known the guy from car meets for a while or well, I've seen him. I didn't really know him personally. However, from talking to him one on one and being respectful, his story checked out much more accurately than hers and it came down to me doing a bit of investigation work on my own while I've been cooped up at home and finding out she was lying and that's why my odometer was way off from pictures I had taken before. Blah!

Thanks for your kind wishes.

[t3ase]

Clay,

[ELEmental59437]

Good to have you back man. I dunno whe you are going to be feeling better or when your car will be driveable again, but the Dallas people (LinuxRacr, Pirana, Moeed, Stealth5, and myself) along with RyanJayG are going to have to insist you try to make it to the next TX meet. Check the TX thread.

Last two month I had pretty shitty luck too, so I definatly feel for you. My gf left me, I totaled my parents spare car, then two days later wrecked my car with $8k in damages. Good always does come out of the bad though. I can say with the support of this community and just plain old praying, I came out ahead, way ahead. We are all here for you man. The TX meet was a blast, and I definatly respect you for all you have contributed here, and you taking the TX meet into your hands, I thought it was very successful.

Your friend
Ahmad

[low_psi]

good to see ya back on. just yesterday I was wondering if I had missed anything regarding your condition since I hadn't seen you in awhile.

take it easy and keep getting better!

[Projekt Tuner]

We could just make her "disappear"...................

[Newf]

fucking bitch, I'd kill it.

anyways, you know I'm always glad to see you around. Having been through a serious accident myself when I was 19, I can appreciate the pain and agony of going through that crap. 10 years later, I feel a lot better obviously, but still have occassional neck pains ( broke part of my neck in accident, some asshole jumped a stop sign). I hope your health impoves man, best wishes.

[mopiko]

I don't really know you, but read all about the accident and this... Sometimes, when it rains, it pours, but its time like these that will shape you into a better, stronger person (well, not ncessary physically) I know I can say this because that's what helped me to become who I am... I frunk out of college twice and made some bad mistakes, was living like a bomb and really didn't care about everything until tough time get to me and wack me in the head and say "what the fuck am I doing to myself?"

I'm sure you're not a loser like I was, but view this to shape yourself, you still have a lot more potential, career, family, community like this one. Sometimes all you have to do is let something go, and everything else will fall into place. Well, enough of my blah-ing, good luck with your Speed and your recovery, if you are a guy that believes in praying, I can do that for you, and that's pretty much the only thing I can do for you right now that's within my power... I'm not a doctor so I can't make you recovery faster, I'm not a mechanic so I can't fix your speed, so I hope these word can encourage you just a tiny little bit. :)

[dominoy2k1]

damn well she is hot. wonder if she would give me some of the poon? lol. honestly it sucks but eh there is more ass(butt) around the corner. we are tryin to get another texas meet going. check out the texas forum. things will get better. i promise.(boobs2)

[spicynamja]

I hope everything works out with the car. But especially with your health. Get well soon!

[DZnutz]

hey clay sorry to hear about your ongoing headaches, just dont forget about me ^_^

[t3ase]

hey clay sorry to hear about your ongoing headaches, just dont forget about me ^_^
I got ya.

[Heathen23]

Great post t3ase. Sorry to hear about the woman- but whatever, now you know she's worthless. Stick to any PT the doctor recommends and take it easy on yourself. Kick those headaches and get the msp back on the road(2thumbs)

edit: there will be a warm seat in hell for her anyway.

[LaserBlueMSP]

Women and cars can be replaced, people can't. yea women arent people! well women like that arent. i have been there just as alot of other guys have. i dont really know you either i have talked to you on aim once or twice. all that really matters is your health, best wishes to you. and all will work out

[pdhaudio83]

i love it- he gets out, feeling better, and where does he come to postwhore!! WH00T!!

:D

[CommieSpeed]

Nice letter T3ase...makes me realize how much I like these forums too. Seriously...after some of my worst days I sit down and get lost in this forum for hours. It's the only way I can relax sometimes. I'm glad we could all make a difference and make you feel better! Oh yeah, and Rachel sucks. From what I understand, even Jesus thinks she is a total bitch.

[t3ase]

From what I understand, even Jesus thinks she is a total bitch.
Bahahahahahahahahahahha

[Wiggles6983]

Man I don't get on for a month or two and look what happens. I wish you the very best of luck, and I think i speak for the rest of us here, if you need anything just let us know and we'll help anyway we can.
God's speed

[instylz]

[Jhova1012]

Nice to have you back.

[t3ase]

Thanks to everyone.

[t3ase]

wait, so is that 'other' guy also a mazda owner since you saw hit at a "mazda?" meet??
I saw him at a generic car meet they have in Austin. A bunch of domestic owners and honda crx's go up there. Nothing overly impressive.. He has a Camaro SS that's insanely built.

[N2OInferno]

Good to hear you're getting better. :D

[RyanJayG]

yeah.. now fix your name mr. t3ase-medical-away (don't pm me)

[Roywhitep5]

[RyanJayG]

[speedhawaii]

[1FASTMSP]

[Chiguy_2002]

Good to have you back. I'm sorry about what happened, but get better soon!

I need to look for this Texas meet thread...maybe someplace near me...

[LinuxRacr]

Welcome back man! Was beginning to worry about you man! Hit me up if you get online. We have some catching up to do!

[Antoine]

Already a Classic Mazda Forums thread...I would like everyone to know that whatever happens in your life...whatever fails or let's you down in your life...myself and my fellow admins/staff will try our best to keep this community alive and well...like an old friendship that never dies...Mazda Forums will always be around...

Mazda Forums keeps me very busy...but I can say personally that in bad times...it's allowed me to push forward...stay focused...and get back on track...members come and go...drama comes and goes...but I will always be here...doing what I do...because it's an eternal passion of mine...I can't leave...

I hope that we have...and can continue to inspire you t3ase...

[jrodhotrod]

Welcome back dude. Don't let her get you down, if she did this to you she wasn't good enough for you and you'll meet someone better. Glad to see this community really coming together and supporting one another. We all love our cars, but in the end they are just cars and people/friendships are 10 times more important.

[spicyzoomzoom]

x

[smp3000]

damn dude, I'ms sorry to hear about all that!!! I've been through some really hard times as well and know how much the support of others means.

If I had extra $ I'd def throw it your way man.

[2K3 MSP]

GET BETTER, GET YOUR SPEED BETTER and then find someone BETTER!What happened to his car?? Did I miss something?

[spicyzoomzoom]

To give everyone an update on the 'speed.. The speed was not involved in the accident. Luckily, Rachael's Nissan was. However, when I thought things were getting better a few weeks after I was released from the hospital, I installed the Apexi AVC-R (BADASS, by the way. Thanks!) and went for my first real drive a week or so later. Due to my leg injuries, I had been having a hard time pushing throttle/clutch but the one time I did go out for a major drive (ie: not just around the block), I downshift from 5th to 4th to pass a vechile and I hear a shattering, the car stalls and it wont come out of gear. I coast to the side of the road, mess with the shifter and it still won't come out of gear. I go to push the clutch in and try to shift then and notice the clutch pedal is fully depressed on it's own. I had to reach down, grab it and pull it back out. Not good. I try to start the car and it shakes like *CRAZY*. My silver gauze bezel fell off of the gauges because of the shaking. It ws *violent*. I turned the car off and it wouldn't ever restart after that. This will be my second transmission issue. Good times.

[BinaryRotary]

Ahhh, teenage drama. Glad you're better man.

[Akaveli]

Welcome back....and Fu*k that Bitch.!

[Speed Vision]

I feel your pain man. I'm going through the same right now in my marriage..
Good luck with your future plans or endeavors man..


By the way, nice last name. I'm a Higgins also....

[2K3 MSP]

Damn, I kept up with his progress until he had the AVC-R installed...I never saw anything about what happened after that:(
Sorry to hear that T3ase...Good luck getting it back.

[Matrix]

Hey T3ase,

Sorry to hear about all that happened. I haven't been on this site much and haven't been all that involved in the MSP community. I've had my car since December 03, but most of the time between then and now has been spent on graduating from school and then studying for the bar exam.

Anyway, I know how you feel. I was hurt badly by a girl and got into an accident soon after. It was horrible. And if you told me back then that I'd be doing fine 15 months later, I woulda called you crazy. I didn't see how life could possibly go on.

But it did.

You just hang in there. Stay cool and don't do/say anything you'll regret later. Just keep going and stay focused on what's most important: health, family and the MSP. (not necessarily in that order (thumb) )

Take care man.

[clownphish]

Wow. So glad to have you back and I pray everything gets better for you from here on out. Take care of yourself. :) You summed up the board and all its politics perfectly - I don't think anyone could have said it better. All the best to you... and your car. :p (2thumbs)

[CitizenPro]

Glad to hear your up and runnin again Clay........the mazda world needs you.

Charles

[enry]

That's some pretty COLD shit. Welcome back.

[gino]

The gearbox is fixable, as you are.
S.O.s are replaceable. You're not.
Pleased you're back.

Be well. :)

[tekkie]

Tease your better off without her by the sound of it man, as rough as it is now its better for you in the long run. Hope you feel better soon man ;)

[BinaryRotary]

Take it from a guy that knows. Theres plenty of women out there, but only 800 of your car.

[shackmgr6073]

What a coincidence!!! I have an ex named Rachel. She was a cheating whore of a cunt too... Anyway, good to see ya back, just remember to do what the docs tell ya.

[FC3s Boy]

glad you liked the avc-r, hope things get better for you, i'm sure they will. I'm 28 now and have been through a lot from crashed cars to lying bitches trust me things will get better for you even if it does'nt seem that way now- chris

[JeRNuT]

glad to hear things are better

[TxSpeed59]

I can identify with you tease.. the last 9 months has been crazy for me.. From losing my father to a sudden heart attack, to my wife having 3 surgeries, to my month old ADR wheels stolen, to my MSP getting broken into, to diabetes related health issues...

Life throws us curve balls... sometimes we hit'em and sometimes they hit us.. Get some rest and you will be better pretty soon.. good luck..

[benimal]

Glad you are doing [somewhat] better, T3ease! I guess it's time to start a new collection to find you a better girl. (lol2) Hang in there man, you've made it this far, you'll see it through to the end.

Eh, I know.. I always know that but it's kinda hard to see through the rain at times, yanno? It's all good, though. Thanks for the deal on the AVC. I'll be contacting you in a few weeks or so. (evil)

[t3ase]

What a coincidence!!! I have an ex named Rachel. She was a cheating whore of a cunt too... Anyway, good to see ya back, just remember to do what the docs tell ya.
Yanno, I've noticed a weird thing with names.. I've never had a good experience with a Rach(a)el, nor a Doug, or Taren. I dunno.. Weird.

I'm afraid to ask what S.O. stands for, so I'll assume it means Subraru Owners. (freak) (screwy) Yeah... Subaru... Owners...

I need more drugs. Be riiiiiiiight back.

[t3ase]

Annnnnnnnnnnd, I'm done for now.

Yet again, thank you everyone for your support..

[Quik89Si]

Glad to see you back in action! I hope you keep feeling better day by day until you're 100% again.

[SilentSno]

Like they say, "What doesn't kill you makes you stronger." Its unfortunate how bad things have to happen for us to realize how great something was/is. I wish you, your health, and your MSP a speedy recover. It'll make you and your MSP stronger.

[Metal MP5]

On top of all that, she didn't even fill up the gas tank ? awww man .......

glad to see you're doin a bit better =) hang in there

[Metal MP5]

Great to see your spirits are higher...and well...women...what can anyone ever say about that!

Welcome Back!

[jeffmsp]

maybe it was rachael that screwed your trans while you were incapacitated? Maybe she did a hard 1-2 shift and forgot about the clutch? lol

Wierd though, I had a girl named Rachael wreaked havoc in my life as well.

FYI-to all forum members, if you meet a sexy girl named rachael you are better off with palmala, my escort paid the price when i didnt walk away(ended up stranded in a ditch but thats a long story) and your mazda could too!

.. Just wanted t'extend my best wishes for ya, Tease. Shit happens, but it'll only get better from here on out. Females suck -- I know, I'm one myself -- but there's plenty more around, and you'll find one that's actually worth your time and affection. And the MSP? Damn things blow up all the time, but we still love 'em!

Keep your head up and it'll all line out, you'll see!

[MP5driva03]

Hey t3ase, it's good to have you back man...you don't really know me, but you gave me advice awhile ago about wheels I think....and you seemed to be a relatively easy person to reach and get help from. I know I speak for everyone when I say we're glad you're alive and kickin', just keep it that way!

And about your Mazda....at least you have a Mazda to be fixed! My Mazda-baby is gone now, but she'll live on with me in spirit. Anyways, take care, drive safe, and forget the girl....if you really want to piss her off, just call her a bitch-they really hate that.

[marashka]

women lie, cars break
but it all is just a small little upsets of life, dont let it get you down, man....

good things will happen to you, i'm sure.

[blynzoo]

Welcome back, brother! This is quite a place, ain't it? But, then, it's quite a world as well.

We are all glad you made it.

[cbcbd]

Welcome back, man. You are extremely right about this forum, it's a more complete honest community than any non-virtual one out there. Glad to have you back in one (albeit shaken) piece. (thumb)

[Caffeine]

Women will without a doubt screw you over in an instant. Friends are always there. Im glad you notice the appreciation that everyone has on here for what you do and that it was reflected properly by well wishes and donations. I hope you feel better soon and when you can drive again run that bitch over.

[t3ase]

Glad to see you back in action! I hope you keep feeling better day by day until you're 100% again.

Alex
Thank you! Hopefully that day will be soon. :D

[t3ase]

Like they say, "What doesn't kill you makes you stronger." Its unfortunate how bad things have to happen for us to realize how great something was/is. I wish you, your health, and your MSP a speedy recover. It'll make you and your MSP stronger.
I know it all will make things stronger/better. Thanks. Love the picture in your signature, too.

[t3ase]

On top of all that, she didn't even fill up the gas tank ? awww man .......

glad to see you're doin a bit better =) hang in there
NO shit. :D

[t3ase]

and that was some of the most impressive post whoring i've ever seen in my life ... i think you're actually doin better than you let us think hehe

keep it up
Oh, I'm not done, either. :D

[t3ase]

YEAH!!!! He's back!

Great to see your spirits are higher...and well...women...what can anyone ever say about that!

Welcome Back!
Thank ya! I may talkin to you about some things comin' up with the MSP. I'll add ya to MSN sometime tomorrow and if yer on, we'll talk.

[t3ase]

maybe it was rachael that screwed your trans while you were incapacitated? Maybe she did a hard 1-2 shift and forgot about the clutch? lol

Wierd though, I had a girl named Rachael wreaked havoc in my life as well.

FYI-to all forum members, if you meet a sexy girl named rachael you are better off with palmala, my escort paid the price when i didnt walk away(ended up stranded in a ditch but thats a long story) and your mazda could too!
Hahahaha.. I'm tellin' ya, there's something with people and their names. How true it is.

[t3ase]

your name is clay?? all this time i thought u were more of a bob. =D jk
glad to have you back.

coop
(scratch)

Thanks,
Bob

[t3ase]

Hit her with your msp, i sure it wants to. It waz her tool.

Seriously tho, good to have you back and i hope your heart and injuries heal fast.
Damage the front end even more than it is right now? HAH! Maybe in a month or two when things are changing on the cizzar. Thanks for your support.

[t3ase]

Welcome back t3ase. Just put the beyotch and the accident behind you and move on with your life.
Easier said than done but we're all working on it.

[t3ase]

Dude, sorry to hear about all tourbles, but everything works out. You'll move on to find someone much better for you.
Good luck and god speed,
Sabre/Julian (Pres. DC-AWD Club)
Thank you. Was this linked on another board or did you just come over here to check out the Mazda scene?

[t3ase]

CLAY!! oh man dude sucks about everything that has happend in the past couple months, must have been tought shit to go through...that clutch deal you were having sounds vagualy (*spelling) familliar to what happened to my old mx6, but enough about me, glad to have you back up and posting again, its sure not the same with out you here, when you get your car back repaired and up and running again call me, we need to go do an old lime creek run. This time instead of it at night while it was raining, and when that demon dog came out and scared the shit out of me, yeah daylight sounds a bit safer and less stressful, well dude glad to have you back

RACERS FOR LIFE!

-alex
Just remember, that smell was the clutch, not your tires. :D

Yeah, you dont really realize it until you see support like that. Then its just amazing.

[t3ase]

Idea: Catch up to Matthew by replying to everybody whos ever messaged me. One person at a time. W00T@!#@!$

Hahahah.. You were all nice and "sweet" sounding and then BAM!#@!$ "run that bitch over"... Classic. Thanks :D

[mp3girly]

Sheeit, a billion posts, and I have missed so much, so many important things.. so I will momentarily swoop in to say something. Clay! You're one of the bitchenist Mazdabrothers on the forums. Fo' sho'. I remember that one night you DJed on the radio and it was hilarious.

I have always said we're one big family, and while I'm sure that in the eight pages I skipped, a bunch of people have said the same thing, and agreed over and over. Only because it's true. So many times I've considered selling me Mazda for something cheap and blah, and I'm glad I haven't. We are the best car community on the planet.

Stay frosty, duder. :D

[YP5 Toronto]

Thank ya! I may talkin to you about some things comin' up with the MSP. I'll add ya to MSN sometime tomorrow and if yer on, we'll talk.

for sure....always willing to help.. my msn: jason_lax@hotmail.com

(ouch that picture on page 1 hurts...)

T3ease, all the best with your recovery. I'm not a dictor or a mechanic (and I didn't even stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night), but still wish you the best of luck here on out. -LD

[PFUNK5]

Funk ON Tease! Good to have you back man!

[loveofmoney69]

Sorry to hear what has happen to you tease hopefully you feel better this is from me and everyone that from San Antonio that is a mazda owner and on this forum take care man

[gino]

Uhhh, haven't been back on this thread for awhile. S.O. is Significant Other.
Hope the last couple of weeks finds you in helluva better shape!

I'm afraid to ask what S.O. stands for, so I'll assume it means Subraru Owners. (freak) (screwy) Yeah... Subaru... Owners...

I need more drugs. Be riiiiiiiight back.

[SpeedyPR5]

Total newbie here on msprotege.com, and just wanted to wish tease well and express what a small world it is.

I finished reading his post and glanced over at the wigwag headlights which are pretty hard not to look at, and blinked at the city. Austin. Well I live in Austin. It's always interesting to find other people from the same place as you. Then I looked at the car again... I've seen this car!... on Slaughter lane more than once... so we must live in the same part of town.

Anyway, glad to be a part of the community and look forward to enjoying driving once again.

--Aaron

[Pawl]

Newb here (hope to become a regular, though)... Just wanted to wish you good luck with the car and better luck next time with the girls.
If I'm not mistaken, The Protege is called the Familia back home. Guess the car does have an influence on the driver, eh. So props to all the peeps out there that helped ya out. Again, get better man.

Peace,
MiKe a.K.a. PaWl

[tidy protege]

Good luck with your recovery and good luck with your car. I havent spoken to you but from what i have read it seems you are a battler you have been delt some seriously bad blows but you will come back to triumph and your car will come back to set some seriously good times on the strip. Good luck with everything.
You are right about this community i am a relatively new member and in the time i have been on this forum i have had the opportunity to talk with some really cool people, see some really cool cars and read some stories like yours that make want to come back to this forum more often and support the cause and learn more about these great cars alot of us are fortunate to own,

I am not lucky enough to have access to the mazdaspeed protege as i lie in australia, but i do have access to the hiboost kit and in a future time my car will be boosting

Anyway i think i can speak for all the australian members, good luck with your recovery and good luck with your car. Dont let this shit get on top of you and make the most of what you have which is all the friends and supporters you have on this forum.THIS WOULD HAVE TO BE A COMFORTING FEELING TO KNOW THAT YOU HAVE HUNDREDS OF FRIENDS HERE SUPPORTING AND AT THE SAME TIME SEEING WHAT YOUR GIRLFRIEND IS MISSING OUT ON

CHEERS MATE AND GOODLUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Jenna]

Just wanted to wish you good luck in your recovery. I know how hard it is after a serious accident at times, however with the will power you will do just fine.

And don't ever forget about those of us on the forum (even though I'm still kind of a newb) as people you can rely on, talk to during hard times, and know that we are there for you.

Heal quickly!

[K-S-W]

Hey why don't you take this off the home page and put some msp info on their.

[t3ase]

[mspHtown]

Please PM any moderator, enry or Antoine or go post a thread in the "Help?Feedback" section with your board suggestions. I ask that you not do it in a thread that has a completely serious meaning about something entirely different.

Thank you. I may be coming to SA and Houston once I get the car back to visit the Protege clubs. Just wanna say thanks, so I may see you out there soon.

"Newbies" or not, everyone here makes this forum what it was, what it is and what it will become. Everyone molds this place, regardless of if it's an "enemy car owner" talking shit and getting us worked up or if it's a postwhore replying to anything and everything they can. Thank you for your support.

[K-S-W]

Gotcha !!!

I dont want to tell you to just forget your girl, you shouldnt. you should learn and move on. and your car will be fine man...nothing some hardwork and a warranty cant fix ;) but just hang in there man

I just join the site today but Iknow what you are going though

[thomasazle]

I just joined the site today but five years ago i had an accident that i thought i was fine from. then I started to have bad headaches also. The doctor told me i have them because of a compressed discs in my backs. It requiers surgery but I could end up not walking

(shocked)

[YellowSpeed1229]

glad to see u r doin better... welcome back

[mazda6girl]

Yeah that sux dude, I wish you all the best. By the way they're all whores just to what extent is the question, I had to find out the hard way


Hmmm... They are all whores?? You can say most of them are whores, but not all of us. I do anything and everything for my ex fiancee and he left me cause I do too much for him. Because I want to be with him every chance I can, I do what I think are sweet things for him all the time (and he says it gets old), I talk about him continuously and said its too much and left. We are back together now and trying to pick up the pieces. All I know is that I love him so very much and will do whatever I can for him and I just pray everyday he is happy. So please dont sit and think that we all are whores, sluts, bitches, etc, cause we aren't. what the she did just wasnt cool at all and she deserves to get the crap beat out of her too. Yeah I take my mans P5 out (the few times he lets me), but it is because I like to drive it and say "check out my mans car", but NEVER would I do something that down right cold hearted.
"Clay Man", there are some of us that do look good/decent, that are big hearted, loving, caring, and will not do as she did. I know it has been a few months, but I have been busy and havent been on much till lately to even know anything, but like everyone said, focus on YOU and your health and when your okay, then worry about getting the car (if it isn't already) back on the road. I am sorry you had to go through such pain mentally and physically and take care of yourself. STAY STRONG!! (Group hugs for Clay)

[Dexter]

t3ase is my bizitchness.

[Zoom-Zoom03]

Hi Clay, I am newer her, but I have actually been viewing this forum four about two years, I just joined in January of this year, because I started to modify my car more heavily, and I realized that instead of just taking from the sight, I had significant contributions that I could make to this sight, and I could help others like they have helped me. I have to say that this forum is the best forum that I have every seen, it is extraordinary informative. I find that I participate in it more and more, it is very addictive. I am very glad to have you as a moderator and I am hope that your recovery continues. I, like may of us love Mazdas and to have a forum like this is outstanding. I work about 40-50 hours a week (to make $$$ to but car parts), this may not be a lot but I am also a full time senior in college, I cannot wait to graduate in May. Even thought I have a very busy schedule, I always try to make the forum a priority in my life. I have seen the BS on here, but compared to other forums this is nothing. I agree that this is an outstanding community, and I know that it has a great future ahead of it. I hope your recovery continues and I will keep you in my prayers.<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /><o:p></o:p>
