Default Hey Y'all

Just to drop a quick line to say hi to everyone here on the forum. How's everyone doing in the greatest Tampa area? I am doing just fine, just surviving from the worst flood caused by a typhoon here in Taiwan. Boy, it has got us real bad this time. 3 days of crazy rain that is equivalent to the same amount of whole year. The flood has killed hundreds of people. Please keep your prayers for them.

I still miss attending the meets and all the great people very much and can't wait to go back to visit sometime in the near future.

Yo Eric how are u man? Glad you made it through the weather. You guys get it like we do. I bet since the hurricanes have been less here the typhoons are more there. The Earth has a way of equaling the balance.

This is how bad it really is going on in Taiwan.

Rob, the home is safe and my stuffs are all make it through which I am very grateful about. One of my dad's friend isn't so lucky though. Total 10k of his pigs died because of a 2 hours flood into his farm and kill them all. His lost is more than 3 million U.S.D. He lives only 20 mins from my house. We are very lucky!! BTW, I have a little Fit with my bike now.

Joe, am looking to see if I can make it back here by next year sometimes. I will let you guys know ahead of time.

Jeff, I didn't know how this would work but I do wish there won't be another one coming for a long while though.

I am turning 30 today, it really makes me miss my times in States. I am getting OLD!!!!!
