@Big J -- I don't know what happened, or what caused your absence, but I welcome you back with open arms and a big wet kiss (on the cheek, of course)! I hope you are doing well. We missed you!

Maybe @Big J will see this thread dedicated to him and will take a bow.

Hi guys!
Thank you for your kind words, and I'm sorry for any concern I've caused. I see that some people PM'd me a little over a year ago and I never replied. I'm very sorry; I wasn't being rude, just ignorant of how to use the 'new' Lounge and a Luddite.
I went away on a research project in China for a few months, got a little sick and lost over 30lbs, went on another project in Thailand and Laos (got sick again) and now I'm back to domesticity (or 'domesticated' as my wife might say).
Thanks to dysentery and worms (neither are to be recommended) I can now wear Buzz Rickson's. I will post pics of my MA-1 and L-2b at some point.
I look forward to renewing our friendships, and I wish you all the best for 2017.

I hope your wife doesnn't think you got sick on purpose to be able to buy more jackets from the japanese brands! That would get you in trouble

Just kidding, of course! Glad to see you back and healthy.
