In my life, I have so much for which and people to whom to be thankful. Among them are quite a few of the folk I have met here on AccurateReloading, even if only via computer. People who for no other reason than being truly good souls, went out of their way to help me in one way or another.

Among them are Saeed, Robgunbuilder, Macifej, Bitterroot, Biebs, Kebco, IdahoSharpshooter and many others all here would recognize. Random acts of kindness - doing something simply because someone else needed it.

I just got off the phone with Rusty, who for no reason other than being a good soul, helped me out without request. He then called me to make sure I had all that I needed and made certain I had the benefit of his advice and experience. Just because ...

Thank you Rusty and all of you who are generous in so many different ways. You may not realize it but these random acts of kindness make all the difference in the world to me. I hope someday I am able to repay same.

With humble and sincere appreciation,

Paul

I feel the exact same way. The best thing to do is pay it forward. Good karma.

Rhyme of the Sheep Hunter
May fordings never be too deep, And alders not too thick; May rock slides never be too steep And ridges not too slick.
And may your bullets shoot as swell As Fred Bear's arrow's flew; And may your nose work just as well As Jack O'Connor's too.
May winds be never at your tail When stalking down the steep; May bears be never on your trail When packing out your sheep.
May the hundred pounds upon you Not make you break or trip; And may the plane in which you flew Await you at the strip.

I'm certain there are a number of folks that could talk about how Rusty, Mjines, 500Nitro or other folks on this board had helped them over time!

I value the friendships that I have developed here.

Concur! I've had great dealings with a number of fine folks on this board, including Rusty, who sent me a cape buffalo target several years ago. Ken at Kebco also is utterly dependable.

while we're on the subject, I would like to thank 465H&H, Idaho Sharpshooter, Dan416, Headtrauma, and Bigdoggy700. All are fine gentlemen, and are gracious hosts. Besides all the banter and mud slinging that goes on here, this is really a great website, and I feel extremely privlegded to have met these fine folks here on AR. To all the above mentioned guys- thanks a lot! One day, hopefully I can repay in some small measure the kindness and generosity these group of guys have shown me and a few of my friends. To you its no big deal, but as said before, it does mean the world to someone else. Thanks again!

PS- be sure to drop Bigdoggy700 a line if you can, he recently just lost his brother to cancer. Him and his brother both are a couple of great guys. Thanks

I to have experienced great interaction with AR members. Most notably, and previously mentiond, is Rusty. There is no question why some here call him Dad.

Heck,

Bailey helped me realize I had developed a flinch. By bringing his Hornet double to the Hoot&Shoot. I think I have cured the problem. Thanks Bailey!
