Update !!!

Hello friends,

It may have been luck or by the grace of God that I am here to write you all today. I have been in the hospital the last couple days, being treated for burns and smoke inhalation due to my house being on fire. I returned from an hour long walk with my dog, only to discover smoke coming from my house. I called 911 from a neighbors and then went in to the house filled with intense flames several times and rescued 3 of my 5 cats. When the fire dept showed up I was forcibly barred from re-entering the house. It was at this time, the shock subsided enough for me to realize that my clothes melted to my skin, my beard was charred and that I inhaled a lot of smoke. I spent the next days more worried about the two remaining cats as I was being treated. It was when I was later discharged that I found the other two cats and can only thank God that only possessions were lost.

It is only now that I realized that I stared death in the eye, and that looking back, probably shouldn’t have went in to a burning fire so many times.

My house is structurally sound yet, the electric and other utilities were cut, and will not be restored till I prove the house stable enough. It isn’t livable and I am staying with a neighbor until I can get the funds to move in somewhere else. I lost everything, clothes, car keys, ID, bank cards, furniture of thousands of dollars merchandise that I sell to make a living and many treasured family heirlooms and pics. Added to list is all the shtf stuff I been saving like canned food and other prepper stuff.

So needless to say, my ability to be on the site is going to be quite limited. And I frankly have no idea when I will ever be able to be on again regularly.

I do hate to ask, but if you are in a position to donate items , gift cards or merchandise to help me get back on my feet again, I would be ever so grateful. My temp address is c/o JR - 824 Oak, Columbus, Ohio, 43205. If you like to send some funds through paypal, please use admotion@yahoo.com, and note that its for me and not for the 12160 site operations.

I do feel truly blessed that my beloved pets survived and that I am in overall good health as a result of this fire.

I would like Tara to take over as chief admin of the site in my absence.

I will miss you all till I can return. James

Comment by Nikki on February 15, 2011 at 2:29pm: James, you are so lucky that you and your pets are alive. I have been in a terrible funk over a relative who perished in a house fire two years ago. You see, today is her birthday and the loss and sadness has been hovering around me all week. To make matters worse I was reading some genealogy records yesterday about another relative who perished on his commercial fishing boat that caught fire. There are so many things that can go wrong and cause a fire. My neighbor has had two fires within five years. The first was caused by faulty wiring in the attic and the second was caused by the battery (much like a laptop battery) for an electric scooter that had been left plugged in.

Hearing that you and all the pets are safe is fantastic news. Stay strong and you will get through this. I will help Tara as much as I can and look forward to seeing you back here very soon. We miss you already.

And please everyone search 'home fire safety' and check your home/office/garage for potential fire hazards today.

I didn't say you could do that! :P Glad you're okay James....at least the animals survived-- what caused the fire? Curious :) I'll resume my discussion with Tara then about advertising. You never did mention what size you wear....just a thought ;)

Stay cool James :)

Comment by Cryptocurrency on February 15, 2011 at 1:31pm: Damn bro... thank god you and your little guys are ok. Everything else can slowly be replaced and when you're rock bottom there is no where else to go but up. I had a tough yr myself as you know, so I know a little bit how you must be feeling.

Now that i'm back around I'll help out with the site as much as time will allow as a courtesy to you and my commitment to this struggle. Since Tara is now chief admin. I will follow her lead and do what is required to maintain the great work you have done.

Take care of yourself James, and don't worry about this place. We'll hold it down till you return.

your friend and ally,

Krypke

Comment by Tara on February 15, 2011 at 12:32pm: OMG James.....that is heart wrenching news but I'm glad that you're doing ok! My heart and prayers go out to you and I'll definetely help out as much as I can! Hold you're head and spirit up buddy, we're all here for you and love ya like a brother!

Many hugs and kisses to you!!!!! Hope to see you back as soon as you're able. We love ya!
